I do not intend to pretend that the Insane Clown Posse and their fans have a sort of hive mind that acts as one. With the Insane Clown Posse, and any other rap group or rock band, you get what you put into it. Many people believe that the duo of loud mouth, in-your-face clowns, are little more than shock rock gurus who have taken a disaffected youth and painted it over with their own brand of antiestablishment rhetoric. I believe this is inaccurate. It is, of course, true that the lyrics feature boastfulness, belligerence, vulgarities of every nature, blasphemy, and a rejection of all things normal, however, it is also true that the band creates a puckish satire of the problems they see in the world around them. There are many songs by the Joes that are meant to be little more than entertaining, these songs make up the bulk of their music. I will argue that the tracks that focus (directly or indirectly) on their political and spiritual views are cooperative with the goals and ideals of presidential candidate Barack Obama.
In 1915 1,500,000 or so people were killed in turky by the ottoman empire. Modern day turky refuses to acknowledge that this genocide ever happened. It is reported that before Hitler and the Nazi's began WW2 and the genocide of the jews, he said something along the lines of, "Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?"
Anyway, today is 7quot;National Day of Remembrance of Man's Inhumanity to Man" in the US. We are one of the only countries not honoring those who had been killed in Turky so long ago and Bush and those right wingers are afraid to refer to the act as Genocide, they fear Turky.
I got this email from a friend of mine today, I thought I'd share it with you. Please repost this in all of your groups, on your myspace, face book, what ever.

I mentioned this to a few people at the Obama events in the area, I want to share it with all the people I am in groups with though. Bookcrossing.com is a website to share books with complete strangers by leaving them in public places. You are given a number so you can keep track of your book!! this is a great, innovative way to help spread the word of Obama!!
Pardon the intrusion, but I felt like I should finally start using my barackobama.com account and then realized I don't have one.
I made one. I am now here to introduce myself and hopefully make friends. I thought I'd start off by telling everybody a small bit about myself, why I support Barack Obama in simple terms and then say good night and let you carry on with your lives.
