In the Dr. Dre-produced track, the rapper denounces the war in Iraq. "Rebel with a rebel yell, raise hell," Eminem raps. "We gonna let him know/Stomp, push, shove, mush, fuck Bush!/Until they bring our troops home." Later in the song, he adds, "Let the president answer on higher anarchy/Strap him with an AK-47, let him go fight his own war/Let him impress daddy that way . . . No more blood for oil."

" has been painted to be this hero, and he's got our troops over there dying for no reason," says Eminem in an upcoming Rolling Stone cover story (on stands November 5th). "I think he started a mess . . . He jumped the gun, and he fucked up so bad he doesn't know what to do right now . . . We got young people over there dyin', kids in their teens, early twenties that should have futures ahead of them. And for what? It seems like a Vietnam 2. Bin Laden attacked us, and we attacked Saddam. Explain why that is. Give us some answers."

The thirty-two-year-old rapper says he has registered to vote for the first time -- but stops short of endorsing a candidate. "Whatever my decision is, I would like to see Bush out of office," Eminem says. "I don't wanna see my little brother get drafted -- he just turned eighteen. People think their votes don't count, but people need to get out and vote. Every motherfuckin' vote counts."

Only one paragraph snipped, it's a short story. If anyone finds the song, post a link or PM me, I want to hear it!

1. sounds like an endorsement to me.

I was just thinking about how it was about time for his work to get a little more mature.

2. People may have their qualms with Eminem but he remembers

where he comes from, in fact, he still lives there.

Eminem is a very smart guy, even if he is kind of an ass, he is full of passion, rage, and talent.

Way back before it was cool to criticis the Bush and Cheney's Eminem was telling them to fuck off!

I thought he was an annoying fad when he first started, three albums later I am a devoted fan.

3. "Every motherfuckin' vote counts."

For some reason, that amuses me.
