What a useless, sniveling, self-serving mastabatory pile of drek.

Not that I've seen it, or anything. Just guessing.

[RushCrush]

OH but this is an important work of art. /sarc

The songs were folky, with acoustic accompaniment, and tended toward the more traditional protest-music style (one tune proclaimed "the devil's in charge"), with an affecting spiritual added at the close.

How dreadfully unimaginative and boring.

Where's the shock value the kids are so fond of these days?

I love being reminded that we came through for America while Pennsylvania and :yech: Michigan went for the Dark Side.

Aw, let 'em have their fun. The best part is while they feel they're accomplishing something with their organized whining, we're out there actually working, trying to fix decades of their touchy-feely screwups. So let 'em have their little shows. It's keeps them out of our way while we make tangible changes.

The real shame here is the fact that Kerry lost by one state. It should have been a landslide in favor of GWB.

Yep. Ohio came through in a big way. Let's just hope the Buckeyes kick the snot out of Penn State and the loathed Wolverines this fall.

[Republicanprofessor]

I've always wondered this: is "performance art" just bad drama and/or music?

I am SO SICK of all the Bush-bashing by contemporary artists. Can't they even think on their own? Drives me crazy.

Delivered with varying degrees (and levels) of humor, anger and sentimentality, the performances all share the common thread that the country is being taken in a radically wrong direction by the current administration. There's a certain sense of huddling together to weather the storm ....

As seen here ...

Sus Barbatus (aka Michael Moore) was loudly rooting for Michigan after the election, and his whining when the Buckeyes won was almost as amusing as his post-election blues.

Just more maudlin self-pity by the Democrat losers.
Not to worry. They will all be dealt with suitably.

**What a useless, sniveling, self-serving mastabatory pile of drek.**

Oh freddled gruntbuggly,
Thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits
On a lurgid bee.
Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes
And hooptiously drangle me
with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon
See if I don't.

Director Shetterly has said that her goal is "to encourage and foster a more conscious and compassionate community."

Good thing I had my boots on ... Jeez how god-awful trite

[Echo Talon]

[CBart95]

Oh Yeah.
Watch the reaction to that remark.
The loonie paranoid losers are lurking.

[TNCMAXQ]

Sounds like they could sentence criminals to see this show--as punishment!

[MEGoody]

"Delivered with varying degrees (and levels) of humor, anger and sentimentality, the performances all share the common thread that the country is being taken in a radically wrong direction by the current administration."

Maybe they haven't heard. . .Bush won re-election by a respectable margin. Seems like these 'artists' are the ones going the wrong direction.

Ah to be back in maine where the idiots flow freely and I can walk into a concert like that carrying concealed and wear a T-shirt that says "if you die 1st we're splitting your gear", and they shrug.

Wimps.

[dead]

The songs were folky

There’s a shock.

If not for Ohio, President This:
