Speaking of Anti-American Submissions…

by Scott H. Payne on December 14, 2009

Rocking in the Free World doesn’t hold a candle to these distinctly anti-American covers:

Honourable Mention: Fight the Power — The Barenaked Ladies,

Runner Up: The Ghost of Tom Joad — Rage Against The Machine,

Best In Show: The Star Spangled Banner — Jimi Hendrix,

Share and Enjoy:

Libertarianism in a Nutshell
I fancy meself a South Park Republican, no prig he, more likely to laugh at the ineptness of somebody trying to offend him than to be offended. A Piss Christ or a Virgin Mary made of elephant shit is so last century it’s hardly worth the bother of feigning outrage. But I do confess that our friends and allies in Japan have come up with something I’m compelled/appalled enough to hide behind a link. The only consolation is that there’s really nothing to be done for an encore. ( 1 comments)
