Bad Music. Good Christians.
ETA: By good I mean, well, a decent enough Christian. Mostly, though, it’s cool Muslims in the video (why are they at a McCain rally? I don’t know. Free country, I guess). I wrote the title like that because I’m always all down on the Xtians (they hate when you put an “X” there. They hate it when you do it to XMas, too, because what if Jesus is that small that it makes him go away when you abbreviate the Christ out of everything?) and I thought you’d be surprised that I used the words “good” and “Christian” together. Surprise!
Maya watches the Mr. Roboto video more times per day than necessary. And she sings along. I blame my brother. Maybe he didn’t introduce her to Styx, but some of our shared (obviously mutant) genes must have been lying dormant within me and I inadvertently passed them on to my precious baby. Too bad there’s not a pre-natal screen for that. At least we would have been prepared and we could’ve tried to keep the gene from becoming active. My theory is that Maya’s mutant Styx gene would have remained dormant if she hadn’t been next to me listening to her uncle’s voice on the phone the other day. Obviously, it’s an auditorily-activated gene. Sick.

Rock on, Maya! I just watched the Mr. Roboto video and it is awesome!

It gave me a warm and cozy feeling to see that not all McCain supporters are shouting “Kill him!”
Then I read that the campaign cancelled an appearance of that Muslim organizer on a TV show at the last minute. WTF? Are they ashamed of one of their true heroes?
By the way, I always heard that “X” was some kind of ancient symbol for Christ, so it’s not a bad thing to use the X.

@Kathi D WTF, indeed! Are they afraid of alienating their fucktard base? Idiots.

Good for them for chasing the wackos away!
