i think i understand your point.  but music is art and isn't the whole point 
of art a creative way of expressing one's subjective view of the tangible 
world?  and so much of one's view of the world (like it or not) is at least 
somewhat connected to political views.  now, i'd agree there's a difference 
between weaving your thoughts on things into your art vs. blatantly 
propositioning them to the masses.  but where do you draw the line between 
disagreement to the point of not wanting to patronize or is it possible to 
just block out that part of the message?  what do you think?

still working on this one,
j.
