Concerning Tom Morello of Rage:

 

But don't accuse Morello — who co-penned an anthem for the Occupy Wall Street movement,"We Are the 99 Percent" — of partisanship. In the same interview, the guitarist took aim at Democratic President Barack Obama. "I drank a little bit of the kool-aid initially," he said. "It looked different than any other president, sounded different than any other president, and then he acted the same as all other presidents. If you have war crimes on your record, and you still continue to suck at the corporate teat like he does — my hopes were higher."

It is interesting to say the least... What changes a nation and her culture? The musicians..

Grammy winner calls radio station ‘gutless’ for refusing to air pro-gun spot

 

“A Washington, D.C., conservative radio station has refused to sell airtime for a political statement,” WND.com reported Saturday.

 

Grammy Award-winner Steve Vaus produced the song “Come and Take It” to compare the defiant slogan of Texans to demands they surrender a cannon at time of the 1835 Battle of Gonzales to the sentiment of present day gun owners facing government demands for citizen disarmament. WMAL News/Talk refused to broadcast it, saying “[W]e have determined that it is too controversial for us to air.”

 

Gun Rights Examiner asked Vaus if he thought the station’s position might be due to worries about FCC penalties or a fear of losing advertisers.

 

"This is a gutless decision,” he replied. “If radio and WMAL had been around in Paul Revere's day I suspect they would have refused to carry his message too."
