(Banned by Clear Channel). Dissent is Patriotic. “Protest Music” is Patriotic.One of two from Crooks and Liars’ “Protest Songs.” Months old, but just as important today as then. Dissent is Patriotic. “Protest Music” is Patriotic.”This is a song called Livin’ In the Future. But it’s really about what’s happening now. Right now. It’s kind of about how the things we love about America, cheeseburgers, French fries, the Yankees battlin’ Boston… the Bill of Rights….” “But over the past six years we’ve had to add to the American picture: rendition, illegal wiretapping, voter suppression, no habeas corpus, the neglect of our great city New Orleans and its people, an attack on the Constitution. And the loss of our young best men and women in a tragic war. This is a song about things that shouldn’t happen here - happening here.”See: http://www.crooksandliars.com/category/culture-life-entertainment/protest-music/for an excellent video of Eddie Vedder’s solo acoustic remake of folk singer Phil Ochs’ “Here’s to the State of Mississippi.” (You Tube would not allow me to upload it).911 Stand Down Order FISA Church Committee NSA CIA FBI Able Danger FBI 9/11 My Pet Goat WMD Niger Plame Sibel Edmonds FBI CIA Habeas Corpus Watergate Warrantless Surveillance COINTELPRO False Flag FISA 911 Patriot Act Executive Privilege Constitution 911 Rigged Elections Coup Able Danger Cheney Bush Florida 2000 Ohio 2004 Diebold Torture Reichstag Fire My Pet Goat 1984 Fake News State Secret National Security Sibel Edmonds Terror Alerts 911 Niger Propaganda Kill The Messenger Plame Orwell Patriotism 911 Treason Traitors Election Fraud Political Coup Waterboarding Magna Carta Bill of Rights 911 Countdown Keith Olbermann WTC7 Geneva Conventions Senator Russ Feingold Greg Palast Free Press Freedom of Speech Freedom-of-Expression First Amendment Sedition Act Free-Speech Dissent is Patriotic. “Protest Music” is Patriotic.
