KID ROCK BLASTS OUTSPOKEN STARS
KID ROCK has attacked celebrities who offer their opinions on the war in Iraq, because he doesn't think stars are intelligent enough to publicly criticise the US President.
The Republican rap-rock star admits he's the last person who should comment on political matters and, though he doesn't always agree with President GEORGE W BUSH, he does support the commander-in-chief and troops fighting for Iraq's freedom.
In a new interview with PLAYBOY magazine, Kid Rock - real name BOB RITCHIE - attacks stars like DIXIE CHICK NATALIE MAINES and feminist comic-turned-anti-Bush radio host JANEANE GAROFALO for thinking they know better than the President.
He rages, "I'm not educated enough to speak about it (the war), and I don't think any of these other motherf**kers are, either.
"I'm pretty sure Janeane Garofalo's and that chick from the Dixie Chicks' educations don't stretch that far.
"Look up CONDI RICE or GEORGE BUSH's education, where they went to school. They've been doing this shit their whole f**king lives, while we've been out dicking around with guitars, entertaining people.
"F**kers in Hollywood who want to use the camera to be like, 'Guess who I'm f**king now?' and 'Oh, stop the war!' - all that shit just makes me sick."
"Fight us!!! The American Citizens, the most p!$$ed off motherf$#%#ers in the world."
He is a fine American. He is a hypocrite for critisizing entertainers when he was the idiot speaking ill of the President year back.
Saw them in concert when they opened for Slayer. Great live show!
I started getting back into Slayer. Its amazing what you pick up the second time around. "Silent Scream" on South of Heaven is an amazing song about abortion. Its really deep, cold, and gives you some insight about how evil abortion is.
Sorry about not posting a Pamela Anderson picture but I am a functional illeterate when it comes to these computer things-but did you notice how a dying thread started to come to life when she was mentioned?
Seeing those photos and reading freepers gushing over them..... now that offends me....
I went to the Jagermeister tour in upstate NY. Great show!
Tom Arraya is no fool. If you ever hear him speak, he is very very articulate and in touch with many issues he writes about. He said he often reads many books about a topic before penning a song on the topic.
I like Slayer because they stayed true to themselves and never sold out.
My favorite is War Ensemble and at Dawn they Slept.
The difference between him and the Hollywood elite is that he knows it and they don't.
Lighten up--it was a joke. BTW, I do admire your debating skills. Never was a good at debates. My stepfather will latch on to an opinion and try to debate the hell out of me, just for the sake of debate. Love the man, but it annoys the hell out of me!
True, very true.
Alot of people who think we should have "freedom of everything" - sex, foul mouths, drugs, etc - vote the Republican ticket cuz it's closest to the Libertarian view (libertine).
OTOH, sometimes I *gain* a smidgen of respect for people I thought were just bimbos or whatever cuz I find out they're Republican.
And I said "smidgen"!
I fit the South Park Republican profile but I am milder than most, I think. I don't gasp everytime someone mentions sex or says the f-word. But, I am not Kid Rock, either. One doesn't have to be Pat Robertson to think that gay marriage, abortion, and socialism are wrong.
Agreed..Ronald Reagan was a Democrat at one point too. Come to think of it..so was I.
I love to argue/debate . . . when my mother gets frustrated debating with me, I remind her she sent me to law school, it's her own fault.
I hear ya, I'm a metalhead and have been since the late 80's.
Huge numbers of our troops and their families love Kid and that is sure good enough for me. If he can lift their spirits and show them some love... I don't really care about the "dirty words" he may use to do it.
Bottom line is I support anyone who defends our troops and appreciates their hard work and dedication.
Law school! Damn--no wonder you can debate! Tell your Mom "I feel her pain! LOL!
Its simple... kid rock's whole "persona" is "white trash".
He's the more southern white analogy to "niggas" and thugs.
He has a foul mouth, is scruffy, has long hair and tatoos, he wears "wife beaters" all the time and relishes his 'trailor fabulous' lifestyle.
BUT... white trash has ALWAYS been patriotic.
