Wheeze Against America

May 1st, 2007 Posted By Pat Dollard.

This band has always been pathetic to me. Never actually fighting for ANYTHING themselves, never having lived anywhere outside of propserous, safe Western capitalist democracies, they nonetheless ran around making a living by posing as combat revolutionaries. Playing kiddie dress up really. They released albums with titles like “The Battle of Los Angeles.” Since no way were they going to fight in real battles ( too dangerous for posers ) they fought in imaginary ones on CDs. Posers, cowards, airheads, yeah those three are a good start. Didn’t Che at least pick up a gun? “We’re not men, but we play them onstage”. I get it.

In this video from a concert a few days ago “Wheeze Against Our Imaginary Devils” tries to stay cool. To matter. To sell CDs. To get laid.

I put this video up as an example of many things, including how the Left will say anything that serves them, despite a total inability to support it with empirical evidence.

“They should be tried, and hung and shot” is what the half-monkey looking guy with the microphone says about the administration, amongst other things. He had no comment as his limo pulled away.

    how about they go fight and stop whining

    I have always hated these guys even when i was an anarchist. Yep keep raking in the money you phoney, racsist, marxist, do nothings. I really hate to say love it or leave it, but it is hard to hold back in the face of hypocracy. Perhaps someone should inform them that they are war profiteers, no better then haliburton, or any solidier of fortune.

  3. MO

    i liked these guys when i was in 9th grade. i though they where so rebellous. now that i’m older i can see that they are really just a bunch of socialist posers. if they really hated america then they would start this “revolution.” bring it on you capitalist posing as a socialist. if they were true to their leaders (marx) rhetoric, “to each according to their needs, from each according to their worth,” they would refund the ticket proceeds.

  4. 0311inohio

    mmmmmmmmm…. I wonder if they ever travel on back country roads at night? :cool:

  5. Gabe Thompson

    The only thing going through my mind is,”you’ll have to go through me first mother fucker”!

  6. Raptor_Pilot

    These guys are fucking old! I didn’t know anyone listened to them anymore.

    That said, the guitar guy fucking rocks. He should start his own band and cut out all the bullshit.

  7. Egfrow

    They are talking about Shooting “Rich” folk while standing behind the Chineese Communist Red Star. Nice. Where’s the Che T-Shirts?

  8. GREG G. S.

    We should book them a gig in koranistan or jizdickastan, see how they like it there,
    spoild brats.

  9. Monkey3531

    i wonder if these tards have any idea how much their music, and the other anti-America rock band music is listened to by the troops? their songs are supposed to be all full of hate and discontent for the Bush administration, but i know plenty of fellow Marines who listen to it and use/turn the “message” against the enemy. the irony is quite amusing

  10. Randall

    Exactly, if they were “Real Americans” and they thought the government was so corrupt, then they would have started a violent revolution by now. If they had true convictions like our founding fathers and current day warriors, they would gladly risk their life for liberty. Bitching about how much your country sucks(the same ones they profit from) and no action being done isn’t going to do sh*t about changing anything, all it does is make you a bitch. If anything it would be conservatives who would start a revolution because we wouldn’t be afraid to die for our country.

    Even if an asshole socialist did start a revolution, I would be their along with many other Patriots to protect what America is really all about.

    “Bullshit on Parade!!!!!!!”

  12. John Cunningham

    I know, I know. It’s OK to just take in the ’sound’. That’s what I used to do back in the olden days. Why does the Jefferson Airplane sound so good, but…

  13. GregW

    The FBI ought to visit this piece of shit to discuss threatening a sitting president. I’ve always hated these fucks. They are about as politically relevant as Pearl Jam…blah, blah, blah…SHUT THE FUCK UP. You are a musician; if you were smart, you’d be a fucking rocket scientist.

  14. JammieWearingFool

    Rage Against the Machine Calls for Bush Execution…

    These clowns would fit right in at the Huffington Post. Freedom of speech has its limits. But I doubt these morons are aware of that….

  15. FTL

    it’s so obvious… posers.

    it is pretty ironic/funny how their music IS used to rally our troops against the enemy… when fighting. I only hope none of our guys pay for it.

    Deport the stupid (Rage) idiots or shoot them for treason… on second thought, let’s just get them on their gulf-stream piloted by one of osama’s finest straight for a Ramaldi trash heap.

    Peace :razz:

  16. Sammy

    These guys Suck!!! The guitarist has some new folk album out called “Nightwatchman”. It’s a bunch of bullshit anti-war songs. Who the fuck listens to folk music? Fuckin’ hippies!!!!

  17. MO

    i am arguing with some lib douche and he put up our boys deaths but didn’t put the enemy death toll. could anybody help me determine what this is so i can destroy this retard.

  18. Korndawg

    The douchebags are total irrevelent and should shut the fuck up

  19. scott

    I just looked up the back ground on that HOMO Zack De la Rocha. He grew up in IRVINE CA!!! The band got their start in the “OC” i.e. huntington beach/Irvine. HAHAHAHA what a bunch of fucking POSEURS! They are the definition of limozine-liberal.

  20. Greg - USA

    MO - “i am arguing with some lib douche and he put up our boys deaths but didn’t put the enemy death toll. could anybody help me determine what this is so i can destroy this retard.”

    That’s because they can not handle, nor want to deal with, facts. I don’t know the exact numbers off hand, but whether you used those or something you pulled out of your ass they will say it’s just something Bush made up to perpetuate the lie.

    Before you offer any numbers, ask them where they got the numbers they are claiming. Ask for the exact location they got them from, not, “well, I read it on some report somewhere but don’t recall where.” You can call bullshit right there.

  21. fatcat

    Let’s smash capitalism by selling a million records! YEAH!

    I was all into the International Noise Conspiracy during my first year in art school. they suck.

  22. Tom

    Rich kids playing poor. Elitists posing as guerillas. The real establishment types in our country. The world view they have is free speech, protected by the likes of Cpl Rock but Cpl Rock will do more to change the world, to fight fascism, to liberate truly oppressed people, to bring freedom and hope than a bunch of millionaire peasants who spend more on their Third World outfits than most of us spend on rent.

    Cpl Rock and his boys truly rock. Impotent Rage within the machine might try some of their schtick on some soldiers in a bar. They’re so brave! So avant garde!

  23. Robert B

    didn’t know this about the band, thank you for posting the truth about them. actually, this clears up some confusion that i got from watching their “guerrilla radio” vid–the guitarist is wearing a Boy Scout uniform with a RATM patch or something on it. being a Eagle Scout myself, i just couldn’t understand why the hell he was wearing it. it just didn’t make any sense.

    now it makes perfect sense: “We’re not men, but we play them onstage”

  24. TWarrior

    Skinny fucking fags!!
    :mad:

  25. Steve in NC

    Drudge just posted this story a day late.

  26. TJ

    Mo,

    general mccaferry put up statistics that said we have killed 20,000 insurgents to date at are detaining over 27,000.

  27. A. S. Wise

    Never trust a white man with dreadlocks. Particularly if he is an ‘entertainer’ and uses his venue to voice extremist positions. Pat is right on, none of them have the cajones to defend their rights.

  28. TJ

    these musicians remind me of another leftist capitalist and war profiteer: Noam chomsky. You would think from his writing along with michael moore they would be living the dream in North korea or cuba. instead they stay in the usa and make millions.

    They are obviously not so stupid, rather it is the sheep that that follow them. :lol:

  29. TJ

    Mo, I got the mccaffery statistic at www.rushlimbaugh.com

  30. rumsfeld47

    Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me.

  31. MO

    does anybody know the age requirments for the USMC? i am 28. is that to old?

  32. Pat Dollard

    It’s not too old.

    Sign your ass up.

  33. CoreyG

    I always thought they sucked cock. This just verifies it.

  34. Scotty

    I have seen these guys live in concert, and they did a big rant too during the taste of chaos tour and I was not impressed, they talk shit but they cant back it up nor can they relate it to anything they have dealt with in real life. They talk big but thats as far as it goes, not action is ever taken.

  35. EZRider

    I love it when entertainers start talking politics. It’s laughable. These guys make millions on records and this moron comes out with his commi belief system. Sell the house and the cars, walk the walk. Limo leftists make me sick.

    Monkey3531: good point about the music. How many explosions and jihadi-killer videos do I get to rock out to with these guys’ songs?

    And correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t RATM break-up a couple years ago cuz “Che” got a lil crazy with his rants? All I have to say is shut the fuck up and play your guitar. I’ll take political advice from the informed without track marks all over their arms.

  36. MO

    i am slowly starting to dislike my jobs and cannot take the hypocracy of the left anymore. i feel like the only thing to do is sign up. i went to the marine military academy in high school and was going to join up after graduation but got caught up partying w/ my friends. now that college is over i feel as though the only thing left for me to do is a service to my country.

  37. EZRider

    MO if youve got a degree. chk out OCS. do your research, becuz if u start OCS (MC) this fall, you’ll start TBS in jan.

  38. John in PA

    Wise man once told me after complaining about my job for the 10th time….
    Stay and make it better or leave,

    BUT don’t ever come to me and complain again unless you tell me what you’ve done to change the situation.

    That was 20 years ago and was the start of my turn from liberal to conservative. Funny thing was, i never knew I was a liberal till I became a conservative. The liberal brainwashing system was working many years before that. Protect your children - let them listen to conservative talk radio.

    Friends think I am wrong to expose my kids to conttroversy btwn lib/con stuff. Well, if I don’t who the hell will?

  39. MO

    okay, don’t laugh but what does TBS mean?

  40. DEVILDOG81MM

    THE BASICS SCHOOL

  41. FTL

    i believe it’s stands for “The Basic School”

  42. FTL

    oops DEVILDOG81MM… beat me to it.

    Be great to lead our guys in the USMC. The training must be great… bol

  43. Iacobus

    Rage Against The Machine sucks. Period. And then there’s System Of A Down. Same deal. They had a video directed by none other than Michael fucking Moore. (”BOOM!” if I remember correctly.)

    If one’s going to listen to *real* metal, listen to Hatebreed or Dillinger Escape Plan, not this shit.

  44. EZRider

    MO:
    The Basic School is a 6 month long training stint in Quantico (the swamp/shithole of Virginia). It teaches basic infantry skills to Marine officers. All Marine officers need to go through it, based on, “every Marine is a rifleman.” . From their, you pick your MOS (what your job is, pilot, infantry, coms, etc.). TBS is pretty much, like the name implies, basic for officers.
    If you’re seriously considering service options, contact a recruiting office (google one in your area). They’ll get you in touch with an OSO officer who should give you more information. Watch out when dealing with recruiters though. They’re job is to sell their service and they’re damn good at it. I recommend requesting some literature from the USMC website and Navy/Army/Air Force too. If you have the degree though, I’d go officer; being an 0-1 at 28 is a lot better than being an E-1 at 28. Another bit of advice, ask as many questions as possible! A dumb question asked is better than a dumb answer assumed.
    Good luck!

  45. MO

    Thanks EZRider. I have already requested literature and an consulting with friends and family. Some of my family think that since I have already started a career that I should continue on this path. I, however, cannot shake this sense of obligation to my country. When I read what you guys contribute to society and then contrast this with the lib hate propaganda I get so pissed that the only way to quell this rage is to work harder to make more money, hence having 2 jobs and working on a gubernatorial campaign.

    This will require much thought. I appreciate the advice and gladly welcome more.

    Thanks!

  46. ColonialMarine

    Laughable. Posers getting rich by selling so-called “revolution”. Get a shower and join the military. But NOT the Marines….we don’t want you.

  47. Monkey3531

    MO, definitely go the officer route at age 28, like EZ said, CONTACT the recruiting office, a phone call is best cause a face to face may be all it takes for a recruiter to get you to enlist, sounds crazy but those guys really are that good

  48. Steve in NC

    MO-

    I say go for it. I let time pass me by and the only regret I have in life so far is that I did not join one of the armed services. I had liberal shit between my ears for too long in my youth. You don’t.

    Hey John in PA -

    You are right on, My 10 yr old is going to watch the Glenn Beck show tonight re global warming with me. You have to teach them because they are awash in liberal shit from media and school. That ass mounting penguin movie was really a global warming puke movie cloaked in cute little dancing penguins called “happy feet”

  50. Tim in FL

    Damn, the urge to enlist is strong! Bet 39 is too old though, uh?. ’sides, I’m too much of a pussy, wouldn’t make it past basic. I know others my age feel this way. We want to do something for our country! Something these Rage wheezers don’t have a clue about!!! I give them a middle finger salute!

  51. DEVILDOG81MM

    keep my honour clean Col.Marine

  52. TJ

    Mo,
    28 is a great age to join, not to young , not too old. Officer or enlisted the military needs you.

    :beer:

  53. TJ

    tim in florida,

    i am the same age as you. thought about going back myself, but physically I am so injury prone from playing contact sports. my knees and other joints are shot. However, you can help in other ways. ask a recruiter if he or she knows of other ways to serve in this war.

    :wink:
