The Rock Against Bush Tour was awesome in just about every way! There is a lot to tell. I should have been keeping a tour diary but was too overwhelmed with meeting people, attending special events and rallies, etc. While I didn't keep a diary the entire tour was shot on high def video in order to create a documentary about the tour. As I review the footage over the next few days I'll fill you in on the high lights of the tour. We are not sure in what format the documentary will be released, maybe on its own dvd, maybe with an accompanying cd…? The details, including WHEN it will come out will be unknown for some time.

Yeah, John Kerry sure is going to change things! I can't wait till he aggressively defends our nation from Terrorism by maintaining the same foreign policy that has created decades of hate and loathing for the United States around the globe! I'm sure his dedication to Neoliberalism and global trade will reduce world poverty and those pesky terrorists will have no reason to want to hurt the US once their domestic utilities are under the control of Bechtel!!!!

Kerry isn't a good person, but Bush is a lot worse. When it comes down to always having to vote for "the lesser of two evils", you know our electoral system's gone to shit. -BSD 3+ Replies

It blows my mind how many people fall into this fear of terrorism bullshit. You're statistically more likely to die getting his by a bus than to die at a terrorists hands. Yeah, 9/11 sucked but Bush uses it as an excuse..."go along with whatever I want or you'll get killed by terrorists". And if you ever leave your sweet Mommy's home and go somewhere outside of the US, you'll find that most people DON'T hate Americans, but however, they DO hate the Bush administration and it's imperialistic nature. I know it's punk rock to hate both Democrats and Republican's equally, but if people don't vote AGAINST Bush, we are in for a long road of shit. 5+ Replies

How is it justified that we invade Iraq with suspicion of them having WMDs, but other countries aren't allowed to invade the U.S., even though we make known we have endless supplies of WMDs and nukes and are ready to use them against anyone at any moment??? 4+ Replies

Well if you all wernt so fucking stupid you would vote for Nader. But as in reality its kerry vs Bush, it has to be Kerry. If not for your sake, but the rest of the world. It must be pretty embarrassing when a European Union Poll shows over 70% of Europes population would like to see Bush out. Oh and why cant Iraqi's vote in the election? It decides their future too Cock heads. 3+ Replies

say what you will about john kerry, but something that hasn't really come up (and i suppose it's just not THAT important to too man people) is that he has what is basically the best environmental voting record of a senator in american history. it should be noted. and i'm bringing it up as someone who is not voting for him.

Bush set 9/11 up as a way to impliment his policies. It's really creepy, and if you know how to read (and by the sound of it, many of you dont) you should read this book before you vote.

"In that this will be my last column before the presidential election, there will be no sarcasm, no attempts at witty repartee. The topic is too serious, and the stakes are too high.
This November we will vote in the only election during our lifetime that will truly matter. Because America is at a once-in-a-generation crossroads, more than an election hangs in the balance. Down one path lies retreat, abdication and a reign of ambivalence. Down the other lies a nation that is aware of its past and accepts the daunting obligation its future demands.
If we choose poorly, the consequences will echo through the next 50 years of history. If we, in a spasm of frustration, turn out the current occupant of the White House, the message to the world and ourselves will be two-fold.
First, we will reject the notion that America can do big things.

And I see why, reading through these posts it does make me sad, not about people speaking out, or conflicting views. Is that every single post i read (that wasn't a humourous post) Was made by someone who thinks they got it figured out. There's alot of good and bad with both sides of this. But we have to remember to keep an open mind about all these circumstances. George Bush has been a terrible president, but John Kerry's policies closely mirror Bush's. The definition of neoliberalism and neoconservatism, (which in my humble opinon are what both Bush and Kerry embodies) Is the exact same. And yes it is great that Fat Mike came out with this Rock Against Bush cd, he's trying to make a positive change. But let us not forget that moveon.com, that was in partnership with Mike over this is funded greatly by George Soros,Soros is scum and perhaps one of the only good points the
