By cutting the funds to NYC it might allow for an errant bomb to take out the New York Times offices...

Arrest this man.

Give it a try...keep a stash of unprescribed viagra in your pocket and let it tumble out the next time you encounter a police officer...see what happens...

They should send Lama Namanumi and Asshole Andy Armageddon into Fort Steilacoom Park to rescue people.

Yes, its a couple of years away, so we shouldnt soil the majestic importance of an internet messageboard by chatting about potential presidential aspirants...

Better than William Jennings Bryan...really? Since you apparently base the qualities of a candidate solely on their polling numbers...George W. Bush must be the greatest Presidential candidate ever.

You also think John Kerry was a good candidate...

If anyone who isnt a celebrity were caught with viagra w/out a prescription they'd be in jail...but Rush is on the radio so the laws dont apply...

Does he still think all drug users should be sent 'up the river'?

I was at that Sasquatch set as well...pretty good (and the Gorge is an incredible place), though not quite as good as the other three I mentioned. If you get another chance to see them, you should.

Or, maybe he's disagreeing because he doesnt think the Iraq war and the Patriot Act were the right things to do in the war on terror...or maybe hes secretly rooting for the terrorists to win!

I think we should ban all air travel...those crashes make me sad. And, yes, myspace is teh devil.

I'm a big Warren Harding fan...he's not too popular since he's the only president in history with a legacy based entirely on some members of his cabinet. Thats all I got...I dont advocate concentration camps in America and I dont hate people based on whom they have sex with. Too bad some people actually do though apparently.

Yeah, Feingold's just trying to be a rebel...he doesnt actually mean anything he says... How do your posts manage to just get worse with each passing day, y2jerk?

Thats to bad about your Modest Mouse experience...Ive seen them several times and a few of the shows were among the best Ive ever seen (Radio City Music Hall Nov04, Madison June05, Bonnaroo05) and the others were at least 'very good'. They went thru the songs briskly as well...thats really weird about their equipment. And, about Primus live...incredible, especially in a muddy field in the middle of the night.

Like how the 'the last four years...' strategy panned out so well in '04?

Feingold just needs to wear a t-shirt that says "EVERYTHING ABOUT THE WAR ON TERROR IS WRONG!!!!!!!!" and he'd never have to give another speech again. He will alienate half of his own party and give the other party a 22% margin of victory? Yeah, hed be alot better off if he agreed with all this administrations's policies... No, it means he has some personal integrity.

Relative Ash.

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?i...TC-RSSFeeds0312 WASHINGTON Jun 23, 2006 (AP)— A Republican gubernatorial candidate's call for creation of a forced labor camp for illegal immigrants drew rebukes Friday from two GOP lawmakers, who labeled it a low point in the immigration debate. Don Goldwater, nephew of the late Sen. Barry Goldwater, caused an international stir this week when EFE, a Mexican news service, quoted him as saying he wanted to hold undocumented immigrants in camps to use them "as labor in the construction of a wall and to clean the areas of the Arizona desert that they're polluting." The article described Goldwater's plan as a "concentration camp" for migrants. Goldwater, a candidate for governor in Arizona, said in a statement Friday that his comments were taken out of context. He said he was calling for a work program for convicted nonviolent felons, similar to "tried and tested, effective and accepted practices" used by state and local jails. But two Republicans, Arizona Sen. John McCain and Rep. Jim Kolbe, called Goldwater's comments "deeply offensive" and asked state Republicans to reject his candidacy in the Sept. 12 primary. "That Mr. Goldwater is either unaware of or indifferent to the loaded symbolism, injustice and un-Americanism of his 'plan' to address the many serious issues caused by illegal immigration reveals his flaws as a candidate and a stunning lack of respect for the basic values of a generous and decent society," McCain said in a statement. Kolbe said that if the comments are true, Goldwater "has demonstrated his complete unworthiness for public office, and I am confident he will be soundly rejected by Republicans from the party of Barry Goldwater, who consistently demonstrated his compassion and respect for all people. This is a sad day in the national debate on immigration policy." McCain and Kolbe favor a guest-worker program for illegal immigrants. Goldwater made a similar comment at an April anti-immigration rally. "Build us that wall now!" Goldwater said, referring to a proposal to add 700 miles of fences along the U.S.-Mexico border. He promised then that if elected, he would put illegal immigrants in a tent city on the border and use their labor to build the wall. --- Yeesh.

Its hotter'n a bitch outside.

Someday, kids will try to sound cool/edgy by saying this kind of thing about Radiohead.

Teenage Wasteland...a true classic.

I had Taylor winning by two rounds. Sound off.

He's definitly not a 'one-issue candidate' as I believe I read someone say in this thread...it was probably y2jerk. Russ is the AuH2O of our day.

A review - Certain moments in time live forever, burnt into the atmosphere by the incandescence of events and those that felt what it was like to Be There. Last weekend was one long string of those certain moments. Bonnaroo 2006 was a cavalcade of madness, a brilliant ode to being Alive, the Great American Carnivale that lived up to its gigantic hype. We arrived at the show just in time to see Bright Eyes with one of the best sets of the entire weekend. Conor Oberst was on top of his game...emptying a bottle of tequila, playing a well-chosen list of songs, and bringing out several special guests. Gillian Welch strolled out for a duet on 'Lua', the frontman for Super Furry Animals showed up, and Jim James himself practiced up on his Rock before MMJ's late-night show several hours later. Good times. On the walk back to camp we heard a little music from the legendary Ricky Skaggs. Unfortunately it would only be a few short hours later when Ricky Skaggs, drunk out of his mind on pure Tennessee mash liqour, ran down some guy with his Tour Bus of Doom. Up next was some good old fashioned pop-rock with the brilliant Death Cab for Cutie. Despite the temperature hovering somewhere around 250 degrees Ben Gibbard still danced with his guitar for the entire hour and a half set of new tracks and classics. Over at the mainstage Oysterhead was playing a rare show that we had to miss for the Death Cab. Im sure it was good though. Tom Petty and his Heartbreakers headlined Friday night with an absolute epic. Song after song, familiar to most anyone with a radio and at least one functioning ear, were joined by a chorus of at least 50,000 people. Everybody's favorite was played. Petty asked (though he clearly didnt need to with this particular audience) for permission to jam...then did, reprising Van Morrison's old role with Them ('Mystic Eyes' and 'Gloria') and finishing up with 'American Girl'. Finally, if this stuff wasnt enough, Petty added one more name to the end of his band introductions...and out sauntered the legendary gypsy, Stevie Nicks. Late-night Friday was an unforgettable marathon. This Tent had three great hiphop acts in succession...Lyrics Born started shit with his full band, Common (after a painfully long setup) trumped him, and finally Blackalicious proved themselves as one of the most underrated acts in modern music with one of the best shows of the entire weekend (I ended up saying this of alot of bands last weekend). Also that night, My Morning Jacket channeled the spirit of Black Sabbath and, though we missed it, Im sure the Umphreys McGee/Disco Biscuits stuff was very good too. Saturday afternoon was insanely hot as we managed to catch some of Dungen and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. While laying in the shade of a big tree we heard blind husband/wife Amadou & Miriam's mesmerizing sound. Jr. Gong Damien Marley brought the roots/rock/reggae to Which Stage. We were disspointed by Beck, wandered away, and got pretty close for Cypress Hill's entire performance. Cypress had their mad dizzank beats, the giant golden Buddah, and the crowd in the palm of their glock-shaped hands. One brief trip to camp later and it was finally time for the true headliner of the entire weekend...Radiohead. It would be the defining American concert for the defining artist of our generation. A once in a lifetime (though hopefully 'twice' might exist in the future) event that we were simply blessed to be a part of. The headbanging groove of 'The National Anthem', hypnotic vibe of 'Paranoid Android', and the soaring 'Fake Plastic Trees'...'Idioteque', 'Karma Police', 'The Gloaming'...new songs from next years cd...sweet lights and monitor images (though they did falter for a few songs) and thousands of glowsticks dotting the night sky. Also, Thom Yorke has never looked happier on stage. Saturday still wasn't quite over. At the Other Tent, Balkan Beat Box got the crowd warmed up and the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus kept us hot for the insane live act that is the Dresden Dolls. I was personally a bit disturbed by some of the lyrics (particularly during an ad-libbed portion of 'Coin Operated Boy'..."I can even fuck him in the ass") but the energy they bring to the stage conquers crowds like old Atilla. They played a couple memorable covers as well...a version of 'War Pigs' that I prefered to both Sabbath and Faith No More and a fitting rendition of Jefferson Airplane's 'White Rabbit'. It made me wish I was in a bathtub with an electric radio in arms reach. Back at the tent for the night, we found that our tent had been invaded by a horrific obese hairy Tennessee Killer Spiders. We slept in the car. We were able to catch Matisyahu's solo/acoustic set at the little Sonic Stage and a couple songs from Shooter Jennings before leaving Bonnaroo for the next year. Here now, in my own opinion, are the top ten bands from Bonnaroo 2006: 1.Radiohead 2.Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers w/ Stevie Nicks 3.Blackalicious 4.Bright Eyes 5.Dresden Dolls 6.Death Cab for Cutie 7.Cyrpess Hill 8.Common 9.Matisyahu (solo/acoustic) 10.My Morning Jacket
