wow thats not right- makes our president look like hes worst than Saddam... and these are just mostly crap punk bands trying to make a $- they are just some groupies. What do they know about politics- even if I'm not citing anything about politics im sick of seeing these people speak out like this.



don't mean to flame though I'm not going to keep this going

This post serves only to reinforce what these protestors believe is wrong with this country. Crap punk bands trying to make a dollar? Did you happen to notices that it was only $6 for the CD and DVD? Considering the overhead, packaging, liner notices, distribution, etc, there is not much of a profit margin here. What proceeds are generated have been donated to the punkvoter.org, so it is essentially non profit. What do they know about politics? Well if you'd taken the time to look a little closer, Fat Mike from NOFX (the founder of Fat Wreck Chords) explains his stance in the liner notes and elsewhere much more coherently and with more substantial evidence that you've provided crapping in my thread. Sick of seeing people speak out against the government? America is not for you then.

I'm not sure you can say that the post "serves only to reinforce what these protestors believe is wrong with thie country." Maybe it reinforces what YOU think is wrong with the country perhaps? As a 527 organization, one that will no doubt pay for ads against Bush or for GOTV efforts for democrats, this group is helping the Kerry campaign bypass the campaign finance reform that is a law of the land. I am sick of people bitching (oh, I'm sorry, "speaking out") when they can't formulate a "coherent" position without sticking to the Democrat party line. I believe that you Mr. Bat, as well as your hippy punk friends, should be able to shout as loud as you want and protest till you're too tired to chant. Just try to have something to say... ok? As far as "America is not for you then", let's try to be civil. As long as you're willing to show some respect to the soldiers fighting to ensure that you and yours can run your mouths, I'm willing to ignore you. Otherwise... in the words from an immortal South Park episode... "It's on!"

Edit: If you didn't intend to make this political, you could have simply linked to a "Hot" deal on a punk compilation. You didn't have to paste all the BS from the AMG review. I've seen you around in P and N enough to know better.

wth is wrong with you people...

a.) where does it make bush out to be worse than saddam?
b.) where is any disrespect given to soldiers?

try to keep the arguments relevant, people.

Thanks for the cool deal, BatmanNate. Added a Tilt poster and the total still came out less than $10. Sweet!

Anyone else tired of the Fox Faction confusing the useless waste of money that is the Iraq conflict with freedom of speech in the US? I mean, it's not like WWII folks. Now, if you want a little breakdown of where your constitutional rights stand, pre-Bush and post-Bush, I'd be glad to get in to it. Let's just stop confusing every little skirmish we stick our noses into with defense of basic American liberties. That arguement didn't work in Vietnam, and it sure isn't fooling anyone today.

This is crap to go.
At least the president is making policies rather than humping Monica while spending our taxes.

Get this out of here.
Support our troops and their leaders.

You just did it yourself too, so STFU.

Hot deal. If you don't like it, move on.

 

[anorexicwallet]

I would like to add my bit of thread crap to those who are saying "get this thread out of here", "this isn't a deal at all, move it to P&N", etc:


Well -- the mods aren't listening to you.

This thread is still alive, precisely because it is still a hot deal.

HOT HOT HOT WHOO. $6 for a CD/DVD !!!

 

[NorCalSci]

Any group or individual that has such obvious contempt for the Office of the President of the United States of America has no place in Presidential politics in the first place. You really want these guys to influence the selection of the next President? Pathetic.

Don't you guys have any respect for your country?



For all of you "Yeah, but it's a hot deal man, quit thread crapping, and yeah Bush sucks..." whiners, would you all be talking up a great fund-raising CD for the KKK, "Rock Against Jews and Blacks?? If it was only $4 would you post it here and say, "Hey it's STILL a hot deal!!!"

I certainly wouldn't.

Seems like this should go in some off-topic America-hating forum.

:disgust:

Yet I was not one of the ones chastising BatmanNate, Fag_Dude. You were. So STFU and FOAD.

not hot deal... propaganda is usually free. if there were a "punk for bush" cd/dvd it should also be free. people usually pay to get their ideas out to the masses, not the other way around.

No one's forcing you to buy diddly squat.

Looks like a great deal for those that like punk, though if you also happen to support Bush I'd consider the fact it supports a non-profit that's clearly "against" him in your purchase. heheheh

Either way, good deal. Thanks OP.

Oh and yeah.

I went and saw this tour live in Seattle, good stuff if you sift through the bull$hit.

I can understand why a lot of people don?t like these bands, it isn?t exactly like the Barry Manalow or Backstreet boys sh1t they have in the car CD player right now.

Maybe this hot deal is for you.

 

[DribbleDrive]

Good deal! Thanks OP!

Another 'Thanks' to all the haters that kept this deal bumped, wouldn't have found it without your help.

More of this "you're either with us or against us" bs. I suppose we're terrorists if we don't support Bush and his idiocy?

The USA is what it is (great) because divergent opinions and approaches have been encouraged, not ridiculed or stifled. Lowering ourselves todoing so makes us no different than many of the facist regimes in the past.

Patriotism (and don't confuse that with nationalism) isn't about blindly following our 'leader' (see North Korea), it's about trying your best to do what's best for your country.

 

[comat0se]

Come on now!! It's PUNK. Since when did you hear a Punk song about how great the government was? Punk is always anti-establishment. What did you expect?? If all you can do is think about how great our leaders are.... I seriously don't expect you'll like punk music anyways. This is a great deal... $6 for a CD/DVD. Plain and simple.

 

[rile0161]

Bush? But they haven't put out a CD for years....sixteen stone was okay, but other than that they kind of sucked...not enough to make a cd against them though.

 

[gothaggis]

great deal.

the new ministry song is smokin'.

also like the DOA song with Jello.

all the other songs....are pretty much CRAP imho. However those 2 songs are worth the $6.

(and its funny to see all the republicans come out of the woodwork for this thread)

[HeroOfPellinor]

Rock stars, with their extremely balanced perspective on life, are the ones most qualified to make a political statement.

:roll:

 

[BadThad]

Not a hot deal, just liberal propaganda. All you haters of the President need to move to the Political Forum.

You are an idiot, move on and stop posting.

Bad music no matter how cheap isn't a hot deal.
