3 Doors Down Propaganda

Everyone is all up in arms about some "Citizen Soldier" crap playing before some movies recently. I can't recall if I've seen it, but what I don't get is why this is news to anyone.

I can't have been the only one who noticed the nauseating flag waving in the 3 Doors Down video being aired before the Iraq war. Remember, they were on a carrier? "When I'm Gone" was the name of the song? Well here's what one of the 3 Doors dipshits had to say at the time:

"We're not promoting violence against people of Middle Eastern decent that have nothing to do with [September 11], but at the same time, we wrote a song that's basically about going over there and kicking their ass."

So yeah, Citizen Soldier is propaganda. Big surprise. These guys apparently get cut checks by the DoD...real artists, I'm sure. Of course, maybe I'm too cynical, maybe the band is just a bunch of morons and the DoD just found them and paid MTV or whomever to put the song in heavy rotation. Who knows.

All I know is if their music wasn't shitty enough to make you hate them, now you have this.
