| Hillary losing the Pink Floyd vote |
| 2008-04-16 |
| Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters has attacked democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton – calling the senator from New York “ghastly”. Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are. You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are. Waters, who admits to being a fan of Clinton’s rival for the democratic nomination, Barack Obama, And the worms ate into his brain. said that Clinton would invade Iran if she was elected America’s next president. “I was so disappointed the other night when the ghastly Hillary got Texas and kept the whole thing going," he told the Independent. "Please God, let's not have this woman! Be careful with that Hillary will want to make her mark and show that she can be just as good as a male president, and she will fucking invade Iran. Trust me. She voted to declare the Iranian Republican Guard a terrorist organisation!" The lunatic is in my head. The lunatic is in my head. Despite being ineligible to vote, Waters, who lives in New York, said he would “buy a whole page in The New York Times” in order to “fly Obama's flag”. Haven't you heard it's a battle of words The poster bearer cried. “But I would be terribly afraid they'd go, 'This is that pinko shitbag who's attacking our President in time of war',” he added. Well you wore out your welcome With random precision, . . . Clinton and Obama next face off against each other in the Philadelphia primary on April 22nd. . . . just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. I'm beginning to think "Brain Damage" is autobiographical. |

| #14 the only redeeming quality about Rog Waters is that his Dad fought and died at Anzio - he evidently doesn't get what those investments are all about. ...you take the blade, you make the chage, you re-arrange me until I'm sane...... |

| #13 Hey, Rog! Feel free to head back to Limeyville anytime, bud. I'm sure the Muzzies will give your musical tastes lots of respect and appreciation. As for the rest of us in the U.S. we DON'T "wish you were here." |

| #12 Ah, Roger Waters. 1. Drove Richard Wright out of the band. 2. Belittled Nick Mason to the point of not being able to play. 3. Awarded "Best Bass Guitarist" in Guitar Player Magazine for lines played by David Gilmour. Not much of a lyricist or singer, maybe, but a real humanitarian. |

| #11 Hey Roger - feel free to shut your limey pie-hole at any time, huh? When we want your opinion, we'll slap it outta ya. |

| #8 Did people ask the opinions of Popstars back in the 50s and 60s? I know in the 60s they wrote their politics into songs. Now they want to posture without even that effort. I liked Floyd but after the split it was never the same. |

| #6 Let's pitch in and move Waters into the penthouse apartment on Manhattan's tallest remaining skyscraper. |

| #5 Yeah, like anyone in the US got to vote for the governments of Europe that sat in 1914 and 1939. If they'd had played nice, the Americans would have remained their quaint little selves content on the western shores of the Atlantic. |

| #4 So that dungheap is living in New York but is too good for citizenship? Who gives a fuck what he thinks? Waters hasn't written a line worth pissing to since sometime in 1980, anyways. |

| #3 It's funny how all these non-citizens are injecting themselves into the Dem primary. Sir Elton for Hillary, now Roger Waters for BO. Maybe Frank Zappa's dream that the whole world getting to vote for US President is coming closer to fruition. |

| #2 “But I would be terribly afraid they'd go, 'This is that pinko shitbag who's attacking our President in time of war' Ah, go ahead and put in the ad. We already think you're a pinko shitbag... |

| #1 Pretty much all "artists" are spoiled losers that only think about getting themselves into the press. |
