Knuckledragger Posted February 13, 2012 Author Report Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Most of the clips I post on Slow forum are 5 minutes or under. This one is something like 84 minutes. That said, it's well worth your while. Two of the greatest minds (and wits!) of our time have an amazing conversation. Edited February 13, 2012 by Knuckledragger
roadtonowhere08 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Rick Santorum Declares War On Heavy Metal By Keith Spillett Rick Santorum has been on the offensive lately, but his target has not been Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney or even President Barack Obama. For the past week, Santorum has been using his campaign to take aim at an issue he feels to be the single most dangerous force in America today: Satanism in heavy metal. “If you listen to the radio today, many of these brand new, so-called heavy metal music bands like Black Sabbath, Venom, The WASP and Iron Maiden use satanic imagery to corrupt the minds of young people,” announced Santorum at a 10,000 dollar a plate sock-hop in Valdosta, Georgia on Thursday. Santorum’s popularity in the polls has grown substantially since he began speaking out against metal and its assault on traditional values. He has spent much of the past week in the Midwest encouraging young people to stay away from metal artists and listen to performers like Michael W. Smith and Pat Boone. In a recent Gallup Poll, 87 percent of Republican voters think that the biggest problem in America today is “the demented bloodlust of teenagers caused entirely by heavy metal music.” In the past, Santorum has accused heavy metal of being the cause of some of the worst crimes in American history including the attempt on the life of Ronald Reagan in 1981, 9/11 and the passage of Obama’s Health Care Bill. He stepped up his rhetoric in a speech on Wednesday when he implied that heavy metal is the cause of many forms of mental illness as well as lactose intolerance. It’s probably not a coincidence that since he began his crusade against metal that his poll numbers have been surging upwards. Picking out a small and unique group, singling them out as “other” and using them to frighten the masses is a proud tradition in American politics. However, many commentators believe that his call for metal internment camps goes too far. Santorum has openly advocated the forced re-education of metalheads. They would be forced to endure 30 days of non-stop “values based” music that promotes the American way of life as well as the free market. In order to leave, they will have to sing the chorus to at least one Celine Dion song. In response to Santorum’s metal onslaught, Mitt Romney officially denounced his earlier position of “tolerance towards all fans of extreme music”. This, in spite of the fact that GWAR played his inauguration as governor of MasNoNoNoNoNoNosetts back in 2003. But things have changed since 2003 and embracing heavy metal music is about as popular selling baby organs on Ebay or clubbing seals. Romney will need to begin pretending to be something else if he plans on facing Obama in the general election in November. Edited February 13, 2012 by roadtonowhere08
swt61 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 Why do I have this feeling that we're going to hear about a sex scandal involving Rick Santorum in the future? And probably one involving an underage girl or boy. There will undoubtedly be some illicit drugs in the hotel room as well.
aardvark baguette Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) I thought that was an onion story or something. I have fond memories of my dad confiscating all my tapes as a kid and decreeing that I am only going to own christian music from then on. Talk about the mother of all backfires.

He is progressive on some issues. He thinks woman should be allowed to fly small planes for instance. http://thinkprogress.org/security/2012/02/10/423325/santorum-women-small-planes/ On another note (please don't show to Santorum campaign)... 25 Reactions To Chris Brown At The Grammys - http://ow.ly/1GaPyI Edited February 13, 2012 by blessingx
