Don’t forget 9/11. Just don’t. Seems everyone was on board 8 years ago. Now we want to make sure that they are treated fairly and justly. Riddle me this: were the office workers in the twin towers, the passengers on the four flights, and the servicemen in the Pentagon treated fairly? I’m for the most part liberal. I wish they would ‘legalize it’; I wish that we could be atheist and not be persecuted because of the ‘In God We Trust’ BS. I am on you people’s side and you’re still wrong. Stop making us look bad. I believe in “human rights”; however, I won’t forget watching people fall from those towers. In reading the comments above – you have all made us look like idiots and traitors. Thanks.
who cares about their music being torture since most of the musicians are torture to listen to anyways. the real concern is where these prisoners are gonna end up and since these stupid celebrities seem to like them so much well they can come live in their backyard.
what makes me laugh is the idea that musicians are “supporting President Obama efforts to close G Bay!” Isnt he supposed to be in charge?
Really ugly look Mr Stipe. But then again you havn’t looked good for a long time now.
lets torture these musician bums by forcing then to listen to DISCO music and celine dion
