Moby believes animals are morally equal to humans.

Seriously.

Worse still, he somehow believes that this is an idea Jesus Christ endorsed (along with gun confiscation and... well, the rest of the Marxist paradigm).

Also fyi: Morello, and the rest of the former instrument-players (as opposed to the screaming, ignoramus of a windbag 'vocalist') from Rage Against the Machine are now with former Soundgarden singer (and fellow leftist) Chris Cornell as the band Audioslave.

Odd. Well, he was on the right list on another site. But, that appeared to be an old story.

[rwfromkansas]

probably so....I got that one from that linked site. It probaby is an error since someone else questioned it to me.

Oh well....I still loved the guy in Spin City.

[nobdysfool]

but I wanted to acknowledge Phil Keaggy, who, in turn (as you know) acknoweldges Paul McCartney.

Indeed he does! I'll have to look around here, someplace I have a pic of Phil and Paul playing guitar together. Phil played for Linda's sister's wedding, and as a result got to meet Paul. They were playing matching Olsen acoustic guitars, sitting on a bed in the hotel. I know that was a thrill for Phil!

Phil has a been a friend as well as an inspiration over the years. If you get a chance to catch him with Glass Harp (yes, they're back together again!), do so, by all means! I used to go see them often in my younger days (early 70's), which is how I got to know all three guys in the band. I have been to Phil's house when he lived in Youngstown (where he taught me so much about bass), and later in California. Currently he lives in Nashville.

Brazile begs to differ. "People come out because they're attracted not just to [the candidate] but also because the candidate is being endorsed by their favorite artist," she says. "It matters."

BS. My favorite band is Coldplay, and they are hardcore leftists. I don't care about their views, I just like their music. No way in Hades would I vote for someone they would endorse that opposes my viewpoints. This Brazile doofus must believe the public cannot think for themselves. Idiot.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

thanks for the list. Some are hard to believe, like Michael J. Fox and Sam Shepard (like Jessica Lange would stay this long w/ a conservative), but it's fun to read.

Does anyone know the political leanings of actor Sam Elliot? He's a favorite among the females in my family, who seems like a good guy who would be conservative.

[dougherty]

You might not like her or approve of her, but Courtney Love is pro-Bush.

She's a little rough around the edges, but I like her music. She might be halfway decent if she laid off the drugs.

One of my favorite actors, Gary Sinise, was on the Larry Elders show this week. He had visited the troops recently and said that he made it a point to never discuss his political views in public. Perhaps, like his good friend John Malkovich, he's a conservative?

[linn37]

CMT has been pushing alot of liberal losers on us lately,Etheridge,Mellancamp and that azzhole that sings Pictures with Kid Rock.

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Good point. I bet the ones that are not loud mouths are conservatives. I do the same thing at work. When people ask me if I'm political or have I been paying attention to politics I have to say, "well, erm, no".

Little do they know! And if they DID...well I work in SF. Just imagine...

[Hacksaw]

this reminds me, I think Alice Cooper may be conservative.

This tends to happen as the haze of drugs and alcohol drifts away (happened to me anyway).

[Hacksaw]

I'm still waiting for the opinion of Slim Whitman before I decide who to support.

[Future Snake Eater]

Perhaps, like his good friend John Malkovich, he's a conservative?

Who cares? It shows he has class, that's good enough for me!

[the invisib1e hand]

I'm picking up Rolling Stone's top 500 albums of all time hosted by Alice Cooper right now... into the top 10... interesting show.

[the invisib1e hand]

hmmm, Pet Sounds number 2?? What am I missing...? Just never really grooved with that one...an acquired taste, I suppose. Perhaps I'll grow into it.

[the invisib1e hand]

.... number one after the break... (if you know it, don't tell me...)

[the invisib1e hand]

#1 is Sgt. Pepper's...whew! I was afraid it would be Thriller!

[arasina]

They are all so sad that the party is over, aren't they. Waaaah...we wanna party with the Clintons and jump up and down on the beds at the White House and snort cocaine and not worry about is and decorate the holiday tree with condoms and play our important music! I mean, the Clinton years were true freedom, man. This war stuff is just such a drag, you know. Let's party and forget about terrorism! Who really cares? Hillary will make sure everything is all right, you know, and we can party with Bill!

[B-Chan]

Huh? As far as I know, Mo Tucker and John Cale (the other Velvets) are still around. When did they supposedly die?
