7. They're an absolutely horrible RW pseudo-punk rock band.
So bad you think it's a parody at first but they're serious. They're called The Right Brothers.

21. Idiots. "bush was right" has completely unraveled over the last few months... now it's nothing but
a sad joke. The fact is, bush has been a spectacular failure. Take a look at the lyrics... they're beyond pathetic neocon claims that show these guys are total dinosaurs (my comments are italicized):

Freedom in Afghanistan, say goodbye Taliban
Free elections in Iraq, Saddam Hussein locked up
Osamas staying underground, Al Qaida now is finding out
America wont turn and run once the fighting has begun
Libya turns over nukes, Lebanese want freedom, too
Syria is forced to leave, dont you know that all this means


Uh, guys? Freedom in Afghanistan? Freedom from what, the encumbrance of infrastructure? The Taliban has not been defeated in any way, shape, or form. Free elections in Iraq? Purple inked thumbs, yes. Freedom to die? Perhaps. Real choices? I think not. Saddam Hussein was killed before he could talk. Al Qaida is running training camps in Afghanistan because bush dropped the ball, and he's still sending out tapes. You guys are friggin' delusional.

Chorus
Bush was right!
Bush was right!
Bush was right!

Democracy is on the way, hitting like a tidal wave
All over the middle east, dictators walk with shaky knees
Dont know what theyre gonna do,
their worst nightmare is coming true
They fear the domino effect, theyre all wondering whos next


Huh? What planet (or drugs) are you on?

Repeat Chorus

Ted Kennedy wrong!
Cindy Sheehan wrong!
France wrong!
Zell Miller right!


Dudes, where the hell is Zell Miller now??? Staying at your house?

Economy is on the rise kicking into overdrive
Angry liberals can't believe it's cause of W's policies
Unemployment's staying down, Democrats are wondering how
Revenue is going up, can you say "Tax Cuts"


Make that: "Economy is on its knees, bush let banks do what they please, Obama's nearly president, the middle east is where he went, Unemployment's on the rise, corporate welfare, endless lies, Prices are all going up, give us 'Bama's tax cuts"

Repeat Chorus

Cheney was right, Condi was right,
Rummy was right, Blair was right
You were right, we were right, The Right was right and
Bush was right
Bush was right


Don't quit your day jobs, kids. Oh shit, you probably already did. Maybe you can get them back?

8. I am torn on this
E Steet would of course be awesome.....But the Seeger Session Band would be "awesomer" with their anti-war, common man throwback appeal. Can you imagine Bruce leading the stadium with Bring em Home or We Shall Overcome or even "how can a poor man stand such times...."
