Dude ... at several of Ed's solo shows in April 2008, he unfurled HUGE Obama banners. There's no denying who Ed supported in the last election whatsoever.

As a Canadian, it is shocking to me that people go bankrupt because they get sick.
There are more uninsured americans than the entire population of Canadadon't compete; coexist
what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?
"I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama
when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'0 -
I have questions about countries with universal health care....
Is their like a monthly premium that everyone pays?
Is it soley funded by the tax payers?
If I get sick, they find out I have cancer, how long will it take for me to get treatment?
How much will I have to pay?
What if I can't pay?
What if I don't pay?
What happens??
I really don't understand the universal system.0 -
You know what I'm wondering...
What IF there was an anti-Obama song written...
Would the same 'Shut Up And Sing' people be saying the same thing, 'Shut Up And Sing'?
After all... it would be a political opinion... right?Allen Fieldhouse, home of the 2008 NCAA men's Basketball Champions! Go Jayhawks!

Now about the music. Bushleaguer sucked (I did like the music), but overall, as a song it sucked. Worldwide Suicide was awesome. I only hope that if Pearl jam have an Anti-Obama song, is that its rocking.
I have my own political beliefs and I don't think anybody else gives a shit. And that's fine. I just don't see the need to air them anonymously on a rock band's message board like a lot of you do. I'm sure I'm not alone.
Bushleagers lyrics are freakin great........"drilling for fear makes the job simple" sh*t...the core of how humans in power get the followers to support really idiotic things....I mean come on.
Obama's doing some shit I dont' agree with but fkn Bush.....no better than Amadinijad.Post edited by callen on10-18-2000 Houston, 04-06-2003 Houston, 6-25-2003 Toronto, 10-8-2004 Kissimmee, 9-4-2005 Calgary, 12-3-05 Sao Paulo, 7-2-2006 Denver, 7-22-06 Gorge, 7-23-2006 Gorge, 9-13-2006 Bern, 6-22-2008 DC, 6-24-2008 MSG, 6-25-2008 MSG0 -

In Layman terms - If my European Friends decided to jump off a bridge - I wouldn't then decide to jump off as well. Same principal applies. Some Americans agree with your point of view. I personally don't. Enjoy your life in Europe.

i agree with a lot of what obama is doing so i guess that makes me a socialist pig...oink oink...
seriously though. if they were going to do an anti anything song it would probably be something more clever than an outright anti-obama song. maybe an anti-system-as a whole song. the guy has been in office 6 months and has not had enough time to screw up. bush was appointed by the supreme court so on day one of his administration 50% of the country hated his guts for it.
there havent been many anti democratic presidents songs, except maybe fortunate son if it was about lbj. but bush 1 and 2 have given us a great list of songs, rockin in the free world, ministry's new world order, rage against the machine's first album was written before clinton, most of riot act lol, wyclef jeans if i were president, system of a down's BYOB, i could go on if i had all day but i don't...
btw, TA, i hear that boston show was amazing. i had 2 friends there that said it was the best show they have ever seen."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

...add Michael Franti's song *Bomb The World* from album Everyone Deserve's Music and the entire album YELL FIRE. What was that Neil Young album *Living With War* where in one song he calls out Obama to run for President I believe.
