"Cuz the speeches of our President, are the ravings of a clown"

Eddie Vedder, brought to you courtesy of Crooks and Liars

http://www.crooksandliars.com/2006/09/18/eddie-vedder/
On May 31st, Pearl Jam taped an episode of the VH1 series "Storytellers" at Avalon (formerly known as Limelight) in New York City. Frontman Eddie Vedder, known for outspoken political views, was critical of the Bush Administration saying that under W’s leadership, "the truth seems to be a vanishing commodity." In a solo acoustic remake of folk singer Phil Ochs’ "Here’s to the State of Mississippi," Vedder takes on Chief Justice John Roberts, Dick Cheney, Jerry Falwell, Alberto Gonzalez and, of course, President Bush.



Great stuff - is this part of the DU Jukebox yet?

4. "Bush is doing a good job"?
Please list what you feel that he has gotten right, and what he has gotten wrong. We will discuss.

It's always interesting to see a member of the copraphagy brigade here - fecal fascists.

12. Naw!
He needs to be impeached, because he is not doing what he put his hand on the bible and swore to do, which is preserve, protect, and defend the constitution of the United States.

This is definitely not the Web site to visit and say that Bush is doing a great job. We all will disagree with you.

15. First of all, he's not doing a good job.
Second of all, were you out lecturing republicans about attacking Clinton, while he WAS actually doing a fairly good job?

:rofl:

16. Sorry bub. Bush created this difficult situation and WE have to live with
it.

Support? Ha! He had the support of the entire nation after 9/11. What did Bushie boy and his band of thieves do with it? They used it and abused it and took advantage of our trust to start an illegal war in Iraq. $300 BILLION and 3000 American lives later we are in a quagmire, and people like you want to STAY THE FUCKING COURSE.

Grow up.

By what standards are you measuring him by?
If you mean he's doing a good job as a greedy, lying, craven, torturing, mass-murdering, war-mongering, decrepit, idiotic, dangerous, treasonous, felonious, soulless oil pig, then yes, he's doing a damn fine job.

17. Bush is a liar, a thief, a ghoul and an idiot, IMO
Edited on Tue Sep-19-06 09:49 AM by ixion
He should be banished from what was once a free country, that he has turned into a theocracy.

Thanks for playing, buh-bye now.

18. If this is the best he can do, he is a good candidate for
prison. He's a criminal--felon level. We, as a nation, can do better than him. He deserves every bit of criticism and derision he gets.

23. "He's doing the best he can"?? Aww... the poor sociopath!
It's 'hard work' pretzledenting with all of twenty usable IQ points, huh?

Well, let's just put him in a padded cell for the res of his miserable life where the only challenge he'll face is wiping the drool from his cowardly chin.

25. Bush League. You gotta bring it better than that, man
If you're doing what I think you're doing. Turn on Faux News or something and bring a few bogus factiods to at least make some lame attempt to provide warrants for your ridiculous claims.

BTW. You're in the "reality-based world" now.

22. I can't believe a friend of mine is still a PJ fan
he went from liberal Dem to raving neo-con supporter after 9/11 but he thinks Eddie Vedder is God. I just want to shake him and ask him if he is even listening to the lyrics anymore?
