Musicians Horrified to Find Out Their Music Is Torture

The first thing that came to mind when I read the title of this article, REM and Pearl Jam Support Barack Obama’s Guantanamo Plan was,”So what?” “Who cares?”, was next.  And “Godless commies,” was last.  But the real fun didn’t begin until I started to read the article.  See the by line leads you to believe that REM and Pearl Jam are just gutless cowards bent on destroying all that is good and decent about America, which includes killing and/or imprisoning our enemies.  However, that’s not really their beef with Guantanamo.  No, the real problem, when you get towards the bottom of the article, is that the U.S. Government has accurately identified exactly which popular music will have the greatest effect in torturing terrorists.  THEIR MUSIC IS TORTURE.  That is the real problem.  REM and Pearl Jam are just pissed off because American hating jihadist’s caved and gave it up under the aural assault of their crappy music.  Ironic, I know, the very bleeding hearts that would have terrorists relocated to your neighborhood, are in fact the very instruments used to torture these terrorists.  HA!  Interestingly enough there are handful of rockers who are upset they didn’t make the list.  Musicians for Equal Opportunity Torture (MEOT), a comprised of has-been rockers, new age artists, and virtual musicians, released this statement, “It has come to our attention that the U.S. government has shown musical bias and partiality in selecting some music for the purposes of torture over others.  This is unacceptable to us.  MEOT demands that every artist’s music be recognized by our government as  a valid form of torture.”
