Rage Against The Masses
Over the Christmas holiday period, my piece on Rage Against The Machine Vs X Factor generated a lot of email blather.

Whichever way you want to look at it, such inclusions are only highlighting how excrable Killing In The Name really is?

I enjoy your sharp-pointed commentary. I surfed over here from Gertrude on blogspot. I too notice that the people I know who consider themselves oh-so-enlightened are saying prosperity is bad. I've just begun to see how some people don't reason based on reality.
Thanks Lisa. The anti-materialism, anti-prosperity drivel is the wrong-headed 'radical' motif of our age. Glad you are on board!
