Besides the fact that in concert he states I'm George F***ing Bush to a crowd of booing fans. If you actually listened to the lyrics, I think that the majority of the CD is about his fictional character, St. Jimmy, going to war. And I feel like this CD made it so big because many people could connect to the emotions of having to go to war or losing a son or daughter or any family member to the war. Billie Joe and Green Day have every right to voice their opinions about our government in however vulgar a way that they want. And now it's Bush's turn. If Green Day had cared half as much about the government as they do now, I'm sure that they would have quite a few songs that bashed Clinton... Oh and just to let most of morons who don't know anything about Green Day know, "Wake Me Up When September Ends" IS NOT ABOUT 9/11!!! IT'S ABOUT BILLIE JOE'S DAD DYING (IN SEPTEMBER) WHENEVER HE WAS LIKE 10 YEARS OLD! Get over it, not everything they do, is "anti-american" like some stupid sh** said up there earlier. It's Anti-Bush and Anti-War. And no, I don't think that when we elect a new president that Green Day is going to be praising him/her in his songs, but if he/she actually did something right in their career, then they won't worry about it. As far as the deep details of the whole war goes, I don't know that much at all. But I know enough to know that our country was attacked and it was time for retaliation. Bush made a quick decision that most everyone thought was the right one, but now that it's almost been 5 and half years and still no sign of who we originally set out to capture, I think it's a wrong decision. And it's the fact that Bush isn't willing to admit to the country that he was wrong or even attempt to fix it, that everyone such as Green Day is getting so p***ed off at him. And then he tries to distract everyone from his original intent by presenting America, not with Osama, but with Saddam... Which, yes, I think it made the world a better place, but it wasn't our place to play world cop (once again) to simply distract us from what we are really in Iraq for.

All you liberal assholes have trashed my favorite band and have pissed the hell out of me you dont realize that there is only like 2 or three BUSH references on the whole album. so all you liberal A-holes can stick it where the sun dont shine because this music means EVERYTHING kids like me. P.s. I fully support bush in his decision to go to war to rid the world of people like saddam hussen.

Google Clinton Iraq 1998. (It's not just Clinton either. Gore, Hillary, Kerry, and many many more Dems/Libs supported and even voted to go to war.) And then come back and tell us how "stupid" Bush is and then follow it up with a wild conspiracy theory about how he orchestrated the 9/11 attacks to get all his "buddies at Halliburton" rich. Yeah, any idiot could pull that off. But then again if he was able to do all that, why wouldn't he go to the trouble of planting some WMD's in Iraq? Seems like that would be the easy part, no? Rock stars, rebeling against the MAN??? How original. That's so punk. Is there anything those guys DON'T know? I'm surprised they are able to find time to make records, go on tour, appear on tv, and now make a movie when they must be so busy researching all the information out there on 9/11, the war in Iraq and the war on terror! Or perhaps they are just latching on to a "cool" anti-establishment theme to make money off you boobs. OMG, are you actually pulling out the “Bush LIIIIIIED!!!!!” card? Google Clinton Iraq 1998.

Like if Hillary Clinton got elected all of a sudden the Libs would stand up and support fighting back against the Islamo-Nazi's. Sheyah! Rayht! Ashpinchtersayswhat? Btw - HAPPY VETERANS DAY!! God bless the American soldier. Pissing off dictators for 229 years and counting! Not that you libs think much of God, or our Vets. But you sure do an ass-load to try and make us feel sorry for people that do this sort of thing... http://www.homestead.com/prosites-prs/nepal.wmv They must be "Trapped by Poverty" or "Discrimination" or "Western Imperialism" or "Global Warming" or some other such bullshit-nonsense. Have fun looking at yourself in the mirror and sleeping with yourself at night. Knock back a few more shots of Vodka and Prozac. You'll find your self esteem in there somewhere... eventually... maybe? Nah!!! Probably Not!! Roflmao!!

And I am not sure I would call them punks either. But good for them (or Billy) for making a movie. I thought that damn September music video was as long as a movie... but anyway.

Someone who doesn't know anything of history. You'll find that when hundreds of thousands of people (read those figures) were being "ethnic cleansed" in Rwanda and Somalia it was the Liberal countries who assisted. The others (US included) sat, argued and procrastinated until it was too late. Back on topic. It's a movie, and a song. Dear me. Someone who doesn’t know anything of history.
