A scheduled appearance by vulgar rock-rapper Kid Rock at a Bush inauguration concert hosted by Bush daughters Jenna and Barbara has shocked conservative supporters.

The rapper’s lyrics often focus on the recreational nature of sex and send a message of female sexual exploitation. In 2000 he appeared in a porn film with well-known porn stars, and he was named the Sluttiest Male Celebrity by MTV.

According to Donald E. Wildmon, chairman of the American Family Association, the White House has sent a shocking statement to the millions of families who supported his re-election.

"Kid Rock is an inexcusable choice,” Wildmon said. "His music lyrics serve to teach our young men to disrespect women in a most vile, self serving manner. There's no compassionate conservatism in that philosophy.”

"Obviously, someone on the Presidential Inauguration Committee has made an extremely poor judgment call. The Committee should cancel this invitation immediately,” Wildmon said.

Kid rock was chosen to appear because he was a supporter of President Bush's re-election campaign.

If you'd like to be.......LOL.

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Do I need to pass some sort of test or sumthin'?

[Howlin]

You have to be SHOCKED at the sanctimoniousness of some of the people around here.....LOL.

[FierceDraka]

Sure.

[codyjacksmom]

Very well said ex!!!!

[bootyist-monk]

Like Kid Rock, like porn, like Bush. No problem here.

[exnavychick]

LOL...I just wish that it weren't true.

[codyjacksmom]

Whoa, hadn't heard that before. What awesome words. Thanks for posting it.

[Tempest]

It maybe, I'm not perfect so I don't have a clean conscience. I guess that's what makes me try not to be too judgemental of others... well that and the fact that final judgement is left up to God and everyone else is just bloviating about some lyrics. *Gasp*

We shouldn't complain about the vulgar Whoopi Goldberg fundraiser for Kerry, and then give ourselves a pass on this one.

[koba37]

Why don't we wait and see what he actually does at this event? The complaints about Whoopi were due to her performance at a fundraiser, due to her behavior at a fundraiser, not merely because she showed up at it.

I watched a Discovery channel program with Kid Rock and Jesse James driving across Mexico. Kid Rock played acoustic guitar and sang...he was actually good.

I'm a little old for his music, but I'd like him if I was 20.

Kid Rock [NOT EQUAL] Whoopie Goldberg

[Long Cut]

PREACH IT, Draka!

Most of the people I work with and lead are Gen-Xers, and all you say is true. NONE of them likes to be pounded with this moralizing claptrap, when it's THEM that has to do the heavy lifting now.

Those who would turn every Republican event into a revival meeting do more harm than good to our side, as I'm sure they know. They actively seek to divide the party and conservatism, and to force out all they deem "impure".

If they got what they wanted, we'd never win another election. You don't get far by banning exhuberance and excitement.

[beyond the sea]

Yeah I wish Babs Streisand would perform instead, shes not as vulgar as Kid Rock...."..........What's the difference between dog sh*t and horse sh*t? ......... The barf bag is still figures prominently either way.

LOL. Speaking of that and the question of "torture", I was wondering if these Islamo terrorists hate Babs' warbling as much as I do.

Remember all that loud music played at Waco, would Babs' tones do the job now?

[Tempest]

Oh now you've gone and done it!!! You've sinned against the Pharisees!!! They shall now kick you out of the temple or have you arrested for not subscribing to their elitist purity.

[Tempest]

Amen and may God Bless you!

"We shouldn't complain about the vulgar Whoopi Goldberg fundraiser for Kerry, and then give ourselves a pass on this one."

Sigh... It's not the vulgarity itself that was so offensive. But the viciousness and the lies involved in the slander. Do you honestly think that people found her behavior insulting based on naughty words?!?!?

[StoneColdTaxHater]

Wildmon once complained that there were satanic messages in the Mr. Ed theme. Get over it! George W. Bush....American BadAss!

[JTHomes]

Oh let's not get our panties bunched....

This is a family thread, please do not use the "p" word. ; )
