I suspect they called it without updating the numbers first.

Plus hitler was right wing not left wing...doesn't even make sence. IMO.
How was Hitler right wing? He believed in a totalitarian state. That is the definition of leftism.
Right wing is believing in a small a government as possible. Extreme right wing is anarchism, the belief in no state.

Obama is not a marxist. Like Clinton I don't think he care all that much either way what his policies are. I suspect he has an affinity for them, but only because of their effectiveness with the people (people with a lower case 'p', of course). He's in it for the power. His is a story of a nobody that got groomed in all the right schools, jobs and political offices. Obama has never done anything radical or taken a stand on something important. He has walked quiet in the doors, stayed away from the most radical bills, got the right connections. Apart from the usual sweet deals, election fraud and corruption of course.
His supporters on the other hand, the element carrying his presidency, they are definitely marxists. Check out Zbigniew Brzezinski. Council On Foreign Relations director, founding member of the Trilateral Commission and a close friend of the Rockefeller family. National Security Advisor in the Carter administration, and more recently foreign policy advisor to McCain's 2000 campaign. Presently his son is foreign policy advisor to the 2008 McCain campaign, and his other son is foreign policy advisor to the Obama campaign.
Obama has close connections to all of these people in the establishment, and believe me, I've read a couple of their books, these guys are your enemy. National borders? That's obsolete. Free market? We're not responsible enough to handle it. Freedom? That's the worst way to control a population.
I've got nothing against rich people, but this is something else. This is the elite. People that view you like a scientist would a rat. People that see your freedom as a threat to their utopian state.
And now they got two new puppets lined up to carry it through.

Is that a Finck solo in Catcher? Sure sounds like Bucket. Either way I'm loving it.

I never claimed to like the Patriot Act - what I said was if my 2 choices are my money going towards safety or giving my money to a lazy ass, I'll take safety. If the act was good enough for Bush, it's good enough for Obama. Now if you want to say we don't need the act anymore, that's fine.
Here are some numbers to put it in perspective:
How many dies of heart disease in America each year? 450.000.
How much is spent on preventing it each year? 3 billion dollars.
How many dies of terrorism in America each year (avg.)? 68
How much is spent on preventing that? 161 billion dollars.
So you want to talk about security and waste of your money, see for yourself. They don't care about your security, and they sure as hell don't care about your money. It's all about control, and we're paying for it!

Scraped is indeed an incredible rocker. The cheesy intro just adds to the groove. Vocals are sick. Axl uses two voices interchanging in the verses. How that is going to be pulled off live is beyond me, but it sounds great. Killer guitar solo, real grindy. Nice touch with the guitars on the outro. Great chorus, for once.

What do we expect? We have a monetary system built on credit, which means there will never be enough money in circulation to pay off the interest, which again means a certain percentage of the population will go bankrupt each year. They have to, it's built into the system.
Then you have the problem with corporations that have to live off this credit. Bad news for anyone looking for a job. A company can't wait to replace you with a machine or streamlining their organization so they can fire more people. Again it's not a choice for them. In a technological competitive market the end line will be that almost 0 humans are needed to do anything.
Today we have a situation where third world countries are making everything we use and consume, because that's cheaper since they're effectively our slaves under threat of either military might or economic ruin. Nobody's really doing anything in the west anymore. Acting, accounting, marketing, consulting, managing. It's bullshit, just a game. And in the rare instances where we're actually making something it's basically a couple of guys handling machines.
We take their shit and they get some fancy overpriced weapons and entertainment toys back. Then we all go let's pretend and divide our resources in some made up charade where everybody has to work their asses off to grab a part of the insufficient debt system we call money.
#4269 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N' Roses to release Chinese Democracy single » 916 weeks ago
Chinese Democracy has gone through major changes over the years. The first leak was a major improvement on the perception on what at the time was no more than a mediocre title track to most of fans.
And now it has been pushed even further. The opening drums adds that epic aspect to the song. I could swear Axl must have recorded those in heaven, and I wouldn't be surprised if he actually did. Then come the real juice. The rythm guitar presented by Bumble brings on the table that one thing I have always missed: The AFD feel.
Gritty, dirty and sleazy. That was the trademark of the guitar playing in old Guns for me. After a killer opening riff you would always have that groovy, playfull chords under Axls powerful vocals. It was one of the things that seperated them from generity.
And now it's back. Not the same in any way of course, thank god, but it's got that feel of a guitarplayer that knows what I'm talking about, making his version of it.
If this song speaks for the rest of the album I think we could actually be in for a little suprise.

I saw Jason 9.
Part 5, of anything, is a cakewalk after that.
