August 18, 200719 yr I guess it's "Tin Soldiers and Nixon Coming." :thumb: Might be getting off topic a little. Growing up, my parents had two "historic" newspapers that were situated just overhead as you went downstairs to the rec room. Presumably the most significant events in their lifetimes. The first was VE Day. The second was "Nixon Resigns".
August 19, 200719 yr That's sad. The fact that GWB is a crummy president and Pearl Jam is willing to point that out?
August 19, 200719 yr Pearl Jam has the right to say whatever they want just as AT&T has the right to censor anything they broadcast. I agree. I just think it paints AT&T in a pretty sad light if they feel the need to bleep that. What's the worst that could happen? Hardcore liberals cheer and hardcore conservatives jeer. Way to go AT&T, you saved America. Now as far as Pearl Jam goes: PLEASE, Eddie, just stick to the original lyrics. I am a big fan of them, and I don't like to see them changed, even when I may agree, somewhat. You may want G-Dub out of office, but singing about it is not really going to help. And telling me about it between songs is wasting valuable singing time.
August 19, 200719 yr The fact that GWB is a crummy president and Pearl Jam is willing to point that out? The sad thing is that Pearl Jam had no trouble cashing the corporate checks, but don't like the fact that they are then not free from saying what they want on the corporations stage. The corporation is the censor here and not GWB. It doesn't really matter who is president at the time or what you think of the current president. The fact is GWB and the vast right wing conspiracy had nothing to do with this...
August 19, 200719 yr The fact that GWB is a crummy president and Pearl Jam is willing to point that out? It appears my comment was over your head. I disagree with your first comment and have already indicated my support of Pearl Jam's right to say what they want.
August 19, 200719 yr Actually, no. It is just that some matters are as obvious as is the fact that Tuesday follows Monday. Do you really doubt that they are mental lighweights or do you just want to disagree for the sake of disagreeing? Can I prove that they are lightweights? No. Thankfully, I know little about them. I thought Pearl Jam was one of the Hilton children. But, then, circumstantial evidence can be convincing. You know little about them, but you are judging them as mental lightweights? Hmmmmm.....
August 19, 200719 yr :sleep: Honestly, who really cares what Pearl Jam thinks of the President and vice-versa?
