Megadeth front man Dave Mustaine has an ax to grind with President Obama.
The heavy metal singer-guitarist, who once wrote the lyrics to the anti-George H.W. Bush administration song "Foreclosure of a Dream," told a Canadian talk show that he subscribes to the birthers conspiracy theory that Obama was not really born in the United States.

Megadeth’s Bass Player also runs a Christian youth ministry called Mega-Life at the Hope of the Dessert Lutheran Church.
There’s Spock’s Beard...
Dave Mustaine seems to be the real deal. Got himself cleaned up, Christian, and no-nonsense libertarian if not full-blown conservative views. Quite a difference from his pro-abortion “benefit” concerts of the 90s.
Not to mention his stint with Metallica and his very close friendship with Alice.
[whom he calls his “godfather” because Alice got him sober and saved]
You go, Dave!
Maybe he’ll write a song for Obummah for the election;
“Sweating Ballots”.
;D
I think he puts out great stuff. I’ve been listening since the 80’s.

I prefer the original version of “A Tout Le Monde”, but that was a great album.
Dave even does Christian songs.

Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162 (1875)
Christina Scabbia makes that song complete. Just MHO...
I don’t think Dave needs accessories IMO but I’m sure he’d agree with you since he decided to remake it with her. (I like the slower pace of the original.)

Why is one characterized as having an “axe to grind” because he believes what is actually true?
If there is a ping list for that please add me.
I’m not surprised, Dave has been a conservative for a long time and a Born Again Christian for several years as well.
Add me as well please
It’s Shepard of the Desert Lutheran Church. I forgot that Dave Ellefson is also a Christian.
Well he plays guitar, otherwise known as an axe.
Maybe some in the OWS might value his opinion?
I heard there is a Megadeth tribute band made up entirely of midgets called Microdeth.
Grizzled Bear is the keeper of the ping.
I saw that it was GB. He needs to borrow the graphic for our pings. :)
