So, what’s going on over at Rolling Stone? Tough economic times? Falling ad revenues? People getting tired of their liberal Bush Derangement Syndrome when they were simply looking for a review of the new Kings of Leon album?

 

Not surprisingly, Barack Obama is number one on their list. And, I agree with them that Obama is creating the most “change” in our country right now. Where the Rolling Stone and I diverge on our opinion is that they think his capitalism destroying, socialism building agenda are positive changes. I believe that Obama is an agent of disasterous change.

 

I just put Matt Taibbi second on my list of so-called “journalists” who I’d like to mule kick in the teeth (Keith Olbermann will forever be at the top of that list. This also moves Helen Thomas down to number three.)

 

I would move Nina Simone (#29) up into the Top 10, too (who in their right mind would ever call Janis Joplin a better singer than Nina Simone?).

 

Considering you work for a Christianity-bashing rag, I don’t doubt that you would be so harsh and critical of the real Messiah, meanwhile getting in line to fellate the pretend Obamassiah.

 

This week, his National Affairs column (Rolling Stone Issue 1049), Taibbi breaks down “Hillary’s Flimsy Case” — and even this Obama-fellator is starting to see through the smoke-and-mirror campaign of Obama.

 

I guess I’m getting old (and not just older). Because of the Rolling Stone Top 50 Albums of 2007, I only purchased and/or listened to 3 of them.

 

Issue 1016/1017 (double-issue) of RollingStone magazine arrived in the mail today. In it they list their 100 Best Songs of the Year. Here are the Top 10: Crazy — Gnarles Barkley Steady As She Goes —The Raconteurs Ridin’ — Chamillionaire What You Know — T.I. Vans — The Pack Thunder on the Mountain — Bob [...]

 

When RollingStone isn’t busy glamorizing the drug and gangster cultures, encouraging kids to drop out of school, or unabashedly bashing the men and women of our military, they like to pretend that they know about something other than music. Like politics.

 

Very nice, Rolling Stone. And why exactly did you need to randomly ask that question in the middle of an otherwise boring interview? Oh, that’s right, because doing drugs is cool.

Every-so-often—when Rolling Stone is not busy glamorizing the drug culture, encouraging kids to drop out of school, or bashing the men and women of our military—they do manage to publish an occasional interesting or humerous story or social commentary.

When one of the most liberal rags on the market—the most anti-Bush, anti-middle American values, anti-military rag on the rack—thinks you might be too far left…well, you are.
