BLACKIE’S CLUELESS: “I WANNA BE SEAN HANNITY”
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008 at 3:45pm by Corey Mitchell
Former buzzsaw cod-piece wearing, red meat slinging, naked woman whipping, beast fucker Blackie Lawless of 80’s second-tier hair metal has-beens W.A.S.P. is currently frothing rabid saliva in the mouth over the latest threat to the U.S. of A.: Barack Obama.
Last week, Lawless displayed his current addiction to rabid right-wing talking points when he posted an anti-Obama screed on W.A.S.P.’s website here. Apparently, Blackie has been hiding out in his Topanga Canyon mansion near the Pacific Ocean, in the den of liberalism, with four televisions turned to Fox News, seven stereos blaring out Rush Limbaugh, and four computers and two laptops with The Drudge Report on his screens
Here are some red meaty chunks provided by Lawless in his rant:
This man is a product of that Extreme Leftist – Marxist movement that has been building in this country for over 40 years. He is a product of the Harvard far left. He is the face and mouthpiece of a movement that is Hell Bent on breaking up the U. S. Constitution and reassembling it to conform to their vision. He is a lawyer, the Democratic Johnny Cochran, in which every time he speaks gives a closing argument. He is the embodiment of the New Democratic Machine.
and this:
Right now, as I write, the L. A. Times Newspaper has a videotape, which it refuses to release to the American Public, which shows Obama at a farewell dinner celebration for the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) Spokesman Rashid Khalidi. He was also a spokesman for Yassir Arafat. In this tape are the recorded verbal attacks on Israel and the Israeli People and reference to Israel as a terrorist state. Reportedly, the Domestic terrorist Bill Ayres, who as part of the “Weather Underground” terrorist organization bombed several U. S. targets including the Pentagon and the home of a U. S. Judge and killing 2 policemen in the process, was also at this dinner. Obama has been close friends with Khalidi and Ayers for many years. The oath of President requires that the President will “protect the United States against all enemies, both Foreign AND Domestic”. Guess he didnt read that part!
and finally, this:
From Obama’s 20 year association with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright who has repeatedly said: ”It’s not God Bless America, No, No, No, Its God Damn America! Obama sat in Wrights church and listened to this Treason for 20 years. Wright also performed Obama’s marriage and Baptized both of his children. Obama was an organizer for Acorn, the group now accused of massive voter registration fraud. Some working for Acorn have already been jailed for this. Obama was also Acorns lawyer for a time. Obama recently donated over $800,000 to Acorn.
He accuses Americans for “clinging to their guns and religion”. Never in the history of the United States has any Presidential candidate had a shroud of controversy surround them as has Obama. If someone would have told me 2 years ago that anybody with these associations could get nominated for their party, or even dog catcher, much less President of the United States, I would have said your insane.
Lawless continues on to quote all of the Fox News lowlights of the 2008 campaigns: “tax and spend,” “Marxist,” “ACORN,” “pallin’ around with terrorists,” “Communist,” “Mein Kampf,” “Hitler,” “reverse racism,” etc., etc., etc.
I believe the best response to Lawless is summed up by Mass Hypnosis Metal Radio host Kent Basky over at the liberal blog DailyKos:
Dear Mr. Lawless;
I have to say it is with a touch of sadness and some confusion that I read your statement regarding Barack Obama and tomorrow’s election. While I haven’t been a fan of every single release, I still consider myself a fan. More importantly, I always felt that you were a fine example of the non-stereotypical metalhead: intelligent, articulate and well-versed in the world. So I was shocked to see your rant against Obama. You claim that you aren’t supporting McCain, yet every single claim you make in the article is straight from the Republicans battle strategy for this election. Lies, bordering on slander, that have been pumped out ad nauseum by Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, The Drudge Report and other right-wing attack artists. Seriously, you believe that Obama is a Marxist? That he is a product of the “Harvard Far-Left”? Perhaps you could explain how that is so much worse than someone who is a product of the “Yale Far Right”? Sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it. As one scans down the page, we see all of the pathetic and debunked McCain claims: The connections to Khalidi, Ayers and Wright.And don’t even get me started on ACORN. I am glad to see you denounce racism, yet to make the kind of statements that black people are only voting for Obama because he is black is not only a line of thinking right out of the mouth of such human scum like Rush Limbaugh.
You decry Obama for reading ‘Mein Kampf’, so I have a question for you: How is this bad, when you take into account the comments of G. Gordon Liddy, convicted felon, domestic terrorist, and good friend of John McCain? It is a sincere disappointment that you would risk more war, economic disaster and even the very freedom to do what you do because you fell for the lies of the complicit right-wing media and a man who voted with Bush 90% of the time. If you think Obama is scary, believe me, what the world fears more is a sickly McCain taking office, then dying to hand the reins of power to Sarah Palin, who will most assuredly attack metal with a ferocity that will make the battle against the PMRC seem like a joke.So thank you, for making some memorable music over the years. But in your belief of the smear tactics against Obama, and support of a party that will destroy the freedom to play and listen to the music that so many love, you have lost me as a fan. Here’s to you not getting what you wish for.

Well said, Mr. Basky. Hopefully, you will garner new listeners for your stance on the truth. Show your support and listen to Mass Hypnosis here.
I’m curious if all the people who have whined about Dallas Coyle expressing his political opinions at MetalSucks will write Mr. Lawless and tell him to “just shut up and sing”?
Somehow, I don’t think they will.

Mmmm… Topanga
This guy officially kicks fucking ass! Very Hypocritical of Kent Basky. He is spouting the same shitty arguments as the Left. Must everyone in Metal vote along the Dem. side? Report metal and stay away from anything political, even in this case.
People can criticize Blackie Lawless all they want, but he’s not the problem. Rush Limbaugh and other members of the Republican Noise Machine disseminating these ideas to the people is the problem. And trust me, if Obama wins tonight, we’ll see much much more of that over the next 4 years.
It is amusing when facts are pointed out, or Obama’s voting record and sponsored/co-sponsored bills are brought in to question you are immediately labeled a right wing wacko and neo con and only watch fox news and listen to Rush Limbaugh. That is how the Democrat base in this country responds when questions arise concerning their candidate. They respond with personal attacks and believe that ACORN, Rev. Wright, and Bill Ayers are made up lies from the Republican party and Fox News. I would like to know why people are voting for Obama, besides the popular response of “Change”
I’m going to be honest, I’ve fucking had it with politics and the election. I just want it to be over with at this point, and that is a terrible viewpoint to have as a taxpaying American citizen (I can admit that). However, I am not alone. I know many people who are just fucking sick of it all at this point. I really feel this election being historic in the regards that the first woman VP and first black President are running have overshadowed some of the more important issues, and are causing people to act like fucking morons, instead of focusing on what this country really needs right now.
Second Tier? Has-beens? What the fuck are you talking about? Those first two records are crucial. The dude wrote Animal for gods sake. If you actually care about his political views then you’re a fucking retard. WASP will always be more crucial than whatever gaytard shit you simple fucks are spinning this week. Fuck you, just write about Withered until the next trend comes along, fag.
Do they act like this is Israel?
@Karl: 1st tier hair metal bands include (but are not limited to): Motley Crue, Ratt, Twisted Sister, Bon Jovi, Dokken, Quiet Riot, G ‘n R. WASP does not make the cut.
Has-beens, absolutely. Last decent WASP album was The Last Command.
Crucial…
1) Obama was EIGHT years old when Ayers was pulling his stunts. How many of you are responsible for the actions of someone you didn’t even know when you were 8? If you are holding Obama responsible for Ayers action when he was 8 years old then so are you! Thats how related that is. You have to hold to your own standards after all dont you?
2) Regarding ACORN; here are some facts -
• Fact: Barack was never an ACORN community organizer.
• Fact: ACORN never hired Obama as a trainer, organizer, or any type of employee.
• Fact: ACORN was not part of Project Vote, the successful voter registration drive Barack ran in 1992.
In his capacity as an attorney, Barack represented ACORN in a successful lawsuit alongside the U.S. Department of Justice against the state of Illinois to force state compliance with a federal voting access law. For his work helping enforce the law, called “Motor Voter,” Barack received the IVI-IPO Legal Eagle Award in 1995. (For more about Barack’s career, check out our Obama bio.)
Ken Blackwell is best known today for disenfranchising Democratic voters in his dual role as Ohio Secretary of State and chair of George Bush’s Ohio campaign in 2004. To see him shed crocodile tears for the integrity of the vote while making accusations about Barack and ACORN with absolutely no basis in fact is disturbing.
Blackwell’s attacks against ACORN and community organizers continue a vile Republican pattern of mockery and viciousness against this noble profession. Community organizers are the very individuals Republicans should be celebrating for helping people to help themselves rather than depending on the government.
3) Reverend Wright “controversy”.
• Reverend Wright was a US Marine. If you want to smear him I suggest you do a stint in our military first and earn the right to talk trash about our troops. Otherwise shut your filthy mouth and support our troops like you Repukelicants always claim to do right?
•Secondly from Obama’s own website “Let me say at the outset that I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn the statements that have been the subject of this controversy. I categorically denounce any statement that disparages our great country or serves to divide us from our allies. I also believe that words that degrade individuals have no place in our public dialogue, whether it’s on the campaign stump or in the pulpit. In sum, I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue. ”
So there you go, I’ve retorted your Rush Limbaugh talking points without resorting to personal attacks. Enjoy. and ROCK ON!!!
Silly americans!
Meatpopsicle, “Otherwise shut your filthy mouth and support our troops like you Repukelicants always claim to do right?” sounds kind of like a personal attack to me.
Now, I’m just going to address Obama’s quote about Rev. Wright. No one, and I mean NO ONE, attends a church for 20 yrs if they disagree that strongly with what the reverend/preacher/priest/whatever is saying. And that’s my problem with this statement and your belief and the belief of a hell of a lot of people out there that there’s no truth to the claims against Obama. You are buying into these lines that are so obviously bullshit. He DOES have ties to some scary individuals that a person that I think is worthy of the presidency should not have. He HAS shown some very very bad judgement in the past on many issues. He FAILED miserably at much of the community work that he has been heralded for. He IS a marxist. He DID have dealings with Khalidi and there IS a tape that is being hidden by the press for some reason. He has POSSIBLY hidden the fact that he does not even have citizenship that would make him eligible for the presidency. Kent Basky calls these “debunked” which is bullshit. These claims have not been debunked by anyone. They have merely been swept under the rug and hidden and the public seems all to quick to accept that.
And, I’ve said it before and now I’ll say it again, I’m not saying this because I’m a republican. To put my money where my mouth is, I just voted 3rd party because both “main” candidates suck. But I’ll be honest, Obama, and the way that many are simply willing to overlook all his dirty laundry and view him as some kind of savior, scares the shit out of me.
Oh, and to deny the fact that many black people are voting for Obama because he is black and many white people will vote against him for the very same thing is pure lunacy. However, the fact that whites will vote against him is a PC thing for the media to present as news. Show me one single mainstream outlet that has done a story about the other side of the coin.
1-Ayers. Does it matter what age Obama was when Ayers commited those acts? No. I’m not saying that Obama blew up buildings or whatever. The problem I have is why is he more than willing to associate himself with a known domestic terrorist? Honestly, I was 8 when Tim McViegh took down the Oklahoma Federal Building. If he was still alive and I was hanging out with him like it was nothing, you’d have some questions about me. Something just doesn’t smell right there and I don’t think we know the whole story behind their relationship.
2-I don’t know much about ACORN-gate, other than they’ve donated about 500,000.00 to Obama’s campaign, they’ve endorsed him all over and are registering the underaged, the dead, cartoon characters and imaginary people. And contrary to popular belief they have caught some early voting ballots with fake names and some of the deceased.
3-I’m not comfortable with the fact that he was among the top 3 in congressional contributions from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. He chose a top exec from (I think it was) Freddie to find a VP.
4-I don’t like the fact that he’s voted over 120 times “Present” in congress. He has no record to speak of.
5-Who cares if Wright is an ex-Marine? Does that mean he or any ex-military personel can say whatever they want and we can say anything about just because he’s ex-military? Give me a break. The Rev. Wright controversy didn’t happen over night. You’re trying to tell me that just one day this guy snapped and decided to say this kind of stuff? I highly doubt it. Obama went to this church for 20 some years and I don’t believe for one second that this is the first time that Wright had flown off the handle and Obama sat through it. The worst part about that whole Wright thing was, that Obama didn’t denounce his Reverend until the media and the public really hit him hard on the subject. If I remember correctly it took him more than a week to distance himself from Wright.

Talking points on a metal blog, I love it:
1.Does it matter what age Obama was when Ayers commited those acts? No. I’m not saying that Obama blew up buildings or whatever. The problem I have is why is he more than willing to associate himself with a known domestic terrorist?
Well, does it matter that McCain “pals around” with convicted felon G. Gordon Liddy? Ayers never killed anyone, so you are drawing false analogies.
2. I don’t know much about ACORN-gate
Exactly. McCain praised ACORN a few years ago. Why all of a sudden is it an issue?
3. I’m not comfortable with the fact that he was among the top 3 in congressional contributions from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. He chose a top exec from (I think it was) Freddie to find a VP.
Really? Which one? What exactly do you know about FMNC?
4. I don’t like the fact that he’s voted over 120 times “Present” in congress. He has no record to speak of.
That’s common procedure in the Illinois state legislature
5. Who cares if Wright is an ex-Marine? Does that mean he or any ex-military personel can say whatever they want and we can say anything about just because he’s ex-military?
Actually, he can say what he likes even without being in the military. Amendment 1 of the Constitution and all….
It is almost like the two of us aren’t real people, but message board bots filling out preassigned talking points…
L-O!
V-E !
All I need’s my luuuuuh-huuuuv machine, oh
repeat as necessary
Also, this is so hilarious that a bunch of people who listen to music about devils and screwing sluts and murder and all that are whining about some pastor or, even more hilarious, the guy who wrote a song called Fuck like a Beast bitching about someone’s views on guns, religion, or whatnot. Hilarious!
MSNBC calls Pennsylvania for Barack Obama at 8:00pm (EST).
Pennsylvania, home to our friends at Decibel magazine, was the bellwether of whether John McCain can win or not (McCain’s words, not mine).
I really don’t want to get into why you anti-Obama people are willfully ignorant and paranoid, but ANY investigation of the elements surrounding Barry’s “connections” to Ayers or Khalidi fall apart instantly, PARTICULARLY when you consider that one of the most prominent and respected Republicans in the country put together the election board Obama sat on with Ayers, and McCain RAISED MONEY for Khalidi — a respected professor, who has been invited to speak at several Jewish forums.
Your ignorance is astounding.
And Acorn, well, I don’t have time to get into it, but if you FEEL like ACTUALLY learning something, you can read this:

How’s yer Hockey Mom doin’? WINK!!!!!!
PS: Anyone who thinks metal and politics don’t mix is as retarded as. . . I’m not gonna say it.
MSNBC calls Ohio for Obama at 9:23pm (EST).
Ohio was the key state to push GWBjr over the top in 2004 (thanks to Mr. Blackwell).
According to MSNBC talking head (and suspected Republican) David Gregory, “No Republican has ever won the presidency without winning Ohio.”
New Mexico, another 2004 Red State, goes to Obama at 9:31pm (EST).
it’s sad noone gets it, I don’t like McCain, I don’t like obama, but it comes down to who is more qualified to run the COUNTRY, the country the top fuckin job in the world, OMG obama organized a community, McCain has fought for this country (even if the war was BS) He did what the Country asked of him. fuckin obama wont even put his hand of his fucking heart for our nation anthem, THE NATIONAL ANTHEM come the fuck on, but I guess it dont matter if obama wins the pledge of allegiance will no longer have “one nation under god” it will be one nation spreading the wealth so that those that don’t want to work, wont have to. If that happens I ‘m gonna quit my job and live off the gubment, oh wait I can’t do that I am a able bodied white man. (and before you say that statement is racist, there was a time when I needed help after being out of work, and that is what the food stamp place told me). hahaha GOD DAMN THIS IS A LONG POST I’M SUCH A CUNT
BLACK213 Says: “I’M SUCH A CUNT”
yup.
I smell a concession speech coming up.
Blackie and Ted will have to go cling to their talking points and try again in four years.
Stick a fork in it. 11:00pm (EST).
President Barrack Hussein Obama…
The only bad thing is metal tends to suck during democratic presidencies due to complacency and nothing to really rail against. Hopefully, we can get a new musical uprising ala Black Metal during the Clinton years.
Contrarian, there’s numerous issues I have with Obama that come across as shady and convoluted and the more info that comes out about him the shadier he comes across to me. You acting as though that isn’t the case is even more willfully ignorant.
That being said, at this point, I’ll just say that I hope I’m proved wrong. I have some very serious concerns with the direction that Obama seems to want to take this country in and his history is full of things that cause me great concern. But I would never want there to be a negative outcome for this country just so I could say, “I told you so”
All talking points WERE debunked. They’re still all lies and badly machinated straw men arguments.
And if at any point anyone bitching about Obama thought McCain would be better, you’re fucking retarded. Stop pretending as if we don’t ALWAYS vote for the lesser of two evils. Third party politics will never work in this country so make your fucking choice and maybe actually do research before opining like cunts.
Love, NP.
Oh, ok, I guess since you say “all talking points were debunked” that means that it’s true.
To quote your screen name…
NIGGA PLEASE!!
Bullshit they were all debunked. We can’t even get a straight answer as to whether or not the guy’s citizenship qualifies him for the presidency. He’s been elected president and his citizenship records are sealed???? It’s bullshit. And I’m tired of voting for the lesser of two evils. Fuck, I’d settle for evil at this point. Lately all we get is the lesser of two giant piles of shit.
But I digress. I really don’t want to have this conversation. I’m done. The election is done. Move forward and let’s just see where this handbasket ride takes us.
I guess the only real question is, who gives a shit what Blackie Lawless has to say?
I mean he is sooooo smart with his songs like…um…uh… well you get the point, fuck WASP, Worthless Ass Sucking Pussies!!!
blackie is and always has been an idiot whose time came and went 20 years ago and it was fucking pathetic and laughable then. doesn’t he have concerts out there that he should be cancelling due to stages not being able to support his mic stand?
Scream until you like it, Blackie.
Blackie Lawless is like a retarded Ted Nugent with a quarter of the talent. Does he still make-believe that he was a NY Doll?
