JAGGER ROCKS BUSH: 'HOW COME YOU'RE SO WRONG, MY SWEET NEO-CON'

"You call yourself a Christian, I call you a hypocrite/ You call yourself a patriot. Well, I think your are full of sh*t!... How come you're so wrong, my sweet neo-con."

Ready to drop in the coming weeks, a new Bush-bashing tune from the ROLLING STONES: "Sweet Neo Con."

"It is direct," Mick Jagger says with a laugh to fresh editions of NEWSWEEK.

"Keith [Roberts] said, 'It's not really metaphorical.' I think he's a bit worried because he lives in the U.S." Jagger explains. "But I don't."

The lyric also mocks National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice.

News about the song surfaced a few weeks ago with many expecting that the song would not make the finally cut.

The band kicks off its world tour in Boston on Aug. 21.

Developing...

Jagger sucks. So do the Dixie Chicks, Susan Sarandon, Barbara Streisand, Bruce Springsteen, Al Franken, Elton John, etc. May they all get the support they deserve --- none!!!!

I think the Simpsons did a joke about that once. In a "flash-forward to the future" episode, Lisa has a "Rolling Stones- Steel Wheelchair Tour 2020" sign on her wall.

Dear Mick,

How come you're so dang ugly.

Exile on Main Street is still the Greatest Rock & Roll Record Of All Time.

I personally would give that title to The Beatles "Revolver" CD, but "Exile" is a GREAT album, in fact "Happy" is one of my favorite Stone's songs.

Boy, my list is getting longer and longer of folk who MAKE me loathe them! Yesterday I made the mistake of going to the movies to see the Fantastic 4 with my hubby. He is a Marvel comic fanatic and really had his heart set on viewing this flick. To my surprise the movie was good. BUT the freakin a**hole director just had to ruin it with his subliminal message bashing the prez! Very close to the end of the flick you see where the evil character is being locked up in a steal container on a ship, when they close the doors of the container you can clearly see the number of the box and in bold letters the GB initials on the doors. I was so upset, they had to ruin it, it was fine and I was enjoying it until the end! The evil character locked up was a subliminal message that Bush is evil and needs to be locked up...GOD I LOATHE HELLYWOOD! That'll teach me NEVER to give ONE RED CENT to those bastards, their movies are worth CRAP!!

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Hey Mick, nobody cares anymore you prune-faced old ponce.

[softwarecreator]

It's been all downhill for the Stones since Mick Taylor left.

I've always felt the same way.  They lost that "rock" edge and kind of went for a "funk" style, which I couldn't stand.  "Some Girls" and "Tattoo You" ressurected them, however briefly.

[Mike Darancette]

STFU Mick - Bush is not a NEOCON. The Bushes have been Paleocons since Abraham Lincoln.

[caver]

Agreed, my list keeps expanding too. These fools keep it up and I won't have a single musician, actor, sports figure or other notable person to like.

[softwarecreator]

The Beatles knew enough to quit when they were ahead. So did Creedence and other groups.

Groups like the Stones and The Beach Boys should have quite 2 decades ago and preserved their "Rock-n-Roll Legacy".  Their concerts do well because of the "nostalgia" factor, but who buys their records?

Tour Rider: 1971

Tour Rider: 2005

[MAD-AS-HELL]

Drudge forgot to mention the other song on the album which is a duet of Mick singing with Michael Moore. The song is called, "Conspiracy in the White House."

[ConservativeStatement]

Maybe he can re-word "Midnight Rambler" into "(Post)Mid-aged Rambler" and sing it about himself.

[chapin2500]

I'll say amen to that rant. I haven't been to the movies since about 1995.

Hey mic, STFU! Your the reason so many folks are dropping rock music and picking up country. Rock is dead and you helped destroy it.

[t_skoz]

hahahahahhahahaha

:-D

[Publius6961]

How come you're so dense, our sweet media-moron?

[t_skoz]

Still though, "Live At Altamont Speedway" is one of the most intense rock & roll recordings of all time. I mean, a guy gets freakin shot in the audience during "Sympathy For The Devil" and they have to actually stop the show to ask people to make way for an ambulance...

Quite intense, probably my favorite bootleg in my collection.

[Publius6961]

Mick is about to go the way of the Dixie Chicks.

The Dixie whats??

[itsamelman]

I thought Meredith Hunter got stabbed & beaten? (Not that that's a better way to go...)

Hey Jagger: Ugly is forever.
