240 is Back:
wow.

also CNN is banned from ever playing footage of WTC7 falling.  Ever.  You will NEVER see it on CNN. 

Which is odd, as they will show WTC1/2 falling over and over when trying to piss people off before elections.

But WTC7, that's a no-no ;)

kh300:
just from glancing at that list i wonder why 3 doors down was on there. they're huge bush supporters. most of those songs were all over the radio.

i had to google the lyrics:

must be the part about 'free country' or something.


To this world I am unimportant
Just because I have nothing to give.
So you call this your free country
Tell me why it costs so much to live
Tell me why.

This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away, oh no
I won't turn around.

All my work and endless measures
Never seen to get me very far
Walk a mile just to move an inch now
Even though I'm trying so damn hard
I'm trying so hard

This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away
And I won't duck and run
Cause I'm not built that way.
When everything is gone there is nothing left to fear.
The world cannot bring me down
No cause I am already here, oh no!

I am already here,
Down on my knees
I am already here
Oh, no, I am already here.
I must have told you a thousand times I am not running away.

I won't duck and run
I won't duck and run
I won't duck and run
No I pass away.

This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away
And I won't duck and run,
Cause I'm not built that way
When everything it gone
There is nothing left to fear
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I am already here.

This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away.
And I won't duck and run
Cause I'm not built that way.
When everything is gone
There is nothing left to fear
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I am already here.

I fucking knew it... I saw a huge difference in my classic rock stations... They got all patriotic even holding "united we stand" outdoor events where everyone could gather and stand united I guess ::)  But the music, so many songs were just gone.  I even heard DJs, including Alice Cooper, several times talk about how rock shouldn't be political ::) I completely took the Fox off my channel list.  Gone was any and all political rock.  ::)

Welcome to the 4th Reich  ::)
