1. Wotta bunch of assholes. For example, they said:
"Many of you have asked "when will you release a third album?" or even flat out demanded "you must do a third album or I will die."

Yeah, sure they did.

Oh, and also? "Get'em while their hot, baby!"

You mean while they're hot, you illiterate schmuck? Well, I guess they get what they deserved; probably hired a rightwinger to be their webmaster, and NONE of those people seems to be able to spell.

3. Bunch of worthless Ted Nugent wannabes.
Ignore them. They will fade into some small insignificant niche of psuedo-humanity.
In fact, they're already there! Just like 'Gonzo'!

4. It's like they took every O'Reilly / Limbaugh talking point...
and put it in song form! I got a good gut laugh reading some of their lyrics.

7. The Wrong Bros.
I looked at their website. Dumbass RWs.

One of the lyrics of their songs ("Tolerate This!") was: "we don't believe in the separation of church and state". Fine, morons. You have the freedom to be wrong. Fact is, church/state separation is protecting YOUR right to religious freedom.

Oops! (:sarcasm:) Oh no I didn't!

11. "Trickle Down" is my fave:
Trickle Down
Written by: Aaron Sain/Frank Highland
Lead vocals: Aaron Sain

If the rich man didn't spend his cash on cars and boats and planes
There'd be a lot of average Joe's out of work today
His dollar helps America's economy to thrive
The rich man keeps the working man working and alive

Chorus
Trickle down, trickle down let the money trickle down
It won't do anybody good buried in the ground
Trickle down, trickle down let the money spread around
And one day it'll be my turn and mine will trickle down


If we take away his revenue with taxes that are high
Then he won't take the chance and put his money on the line
But give him the incentive let him reap the benefits
The cash will grow and so it goes and everybody wins

Repeat Chorus

The rich man is the engine of the economic train
So won't you please be careful where you try to put the blame
Some say the rich are selfish that they're only greedy snobs
But when's the last time a poor man gave you a job

Repeat Chorus

Maybe this should be on the list of "Top 50 Rock Songs In Reagan Hell".

Here's MY version:

"Trickle Drool"

If the poor man didn't break his back building cars and boats and planes
There'd be a lot of rich men wouldn't be havin' fun today
His labor helps America's economy to thrive
The working man keeps the rich man glad to be alive

Chorus
Trickle drool, trickle drool, let the right wing trickle drool
Rich men's money won't do anybody good buried in a vault
Trickle drool, trickle drool, they keep their money cooped up like fools
And then they say when a man can't find work that it's all his fault

If we take away his job 'cause his wages and bennies are too high
Then he won't have a dime to spend on the things we want him to buy
But give him a job that's unionized with good wages and benefits
His cash will grow, he'll pay taxes so that everybody wins

Repeat Chorus

The working man is the engine of the economic train
So won't you please be careful where you try to put the blame
Some say the poor are lazy that they're only welfare slobs
But when's the last time a poor man screwed you out of a job

14. That's good....
...Real good.

Especially the last two verses:

"If we take away his job 'cause his wages and bennies are too high
Then he won't have a dime to spend on the things we want him to buy
But give him a job that's unionized with good wages and benefits
His cash will grow, he'll pay taxes so that everybody wins"


I don't think it's a reply so much as it is a view from the logically sane world that is so foreign to these corporate lackeys.

Again....Real good.
