New and Improved 3-ply election thread...


Recommended Posts

What do either of those things have to do with each other? I love Wilco because I love their music and I think they are the best band out there right now. I also love The National and I like Pearl Jam and The Decemberists, etc., etc. (I can't think of any other bands that have done benefits off the top of my head).

 

It's a pretty ridiculous assertion to make, as if the two were mutually exclusive.

 

Yeah, this is still weird to me. How do you 'get' Wilco and Pearl Jam and still not see clearly? I agree both campaigns run a little b.s. but we expect that with politics. However, the total lack of ability to formulate a plan for the future or even stay afloat in the future is becoming painfully evident in the Rep. campaign.

It is not an assertion, it is a question. They are not mutually exclusive, I just find it hard to understand. But then again, I really don't understand much about this country. I've usually been on the other side of popular opinion.

...because...

 

he is left handed

is muslim

is multi racial

is intelligent

 

what? say it.

 

 

I think my political leanings have been pretty obvious from the majority of my posts on this thread and the ones before it. If it makes you feel better to paint me as some dipshit racist hick, then that's your prerogative.

1. Because McCain/Palin are not the the ones on the ballot with a horrendous voting record regarding abortion, and a socialistic and culturally liberal policy "wish-list" for our country.

Do you wanna hunt witches as well? That's American job creation isn't it? At least that's what Palin and her church think.

I can't hunt witches, I am too busy praying for the pipeline in Alaska.

Ahhh...the arrogance of youth.

 

Allow people the space do believe, listen to, eat, screw, worship, read what they will.

 

It won't diminish you to accept that people are different from you.

Somehow, in my gut (and I rely on my gut, not my brain, the gut doesn't lie) I find it hard to believe that you are a Wilco fan. Why would you support a band that is clearly endorsing Obama?

i really hope tweedy doesn't feel this way. that would be seriously disappointing.

Not under the Palin/McCain administration dude.

 

 

That's a terrible thought. Don't forget about the first dude, I heard he races snowmoblies.

Pray all you want or pay off the courts there cuz the Native Americans are saying hell no and this is half the distance of the pipeline. I heard this on American radio, so if Canadians know more, holla.

What way is that? Agree with me politically or you can't like my music? I'm sure he doesn't feel that way. I do though :stunned

It's scary.

 

Naomi Klein (author of "Shock Doctrine") explains her theory of global free market capitalism and the disaster it leaves in its wake.
