@overlord2525 dude it wasn't aimed at ppl who care who gw voted for it was aimed at ppl who were criticising his vote and the only reason I brought him bein Jewish up is because ppl kept sayin that obama payed him off. (yea I kno weak reason)btw right on David for president
Okay this is fuckin stupid alight first of all David is a Jew so if obama was a Muslim he wouldn't support him second of all its his goddamn vote why should we care who he votes for and before you open your mouth bout me I supported McCain
@Gerow100 Ummm.... shut up? This has nothing to do with religious issues, and second its freakin' intresting to know someone like David's opinon on who should run the country.
I would love to know what he thinks of BHO now that he was done the opposite of everything he promised? Close Gitmo..nope BHO signed orders it is to stay active and no prisoner has a right to trial unless the .Mil says they do. return freedoms to the people..BHO signed 4 EOs limiting 1st, 4th and 14th rights. BHO issued a Kill at all cost order of an American in Yemen without capture or trial. Even the "Daily Show" is shaking their heads at what he has done.
@MegaMrZakaria i know people bag on em a lot but.... It is commonly thought that muslims were the cause of 911, which they were just extremists. you know as well as i that there are distinct differences between Muslim and Christian. Plus it is in a famous christian study book series a question "Will the antichrist be muslim?". people are just stupid. you can also tell him that Obama is in fact a Christian. i dont like him either but come on dont be stupid people
Ummm wth does that have to do with anything? You strike me as a racist, which is closest to satanism than ANYTHING Disturbed has ever stood for. And the most popular form of "Satanism" is actually closer to Atheism than anything.
I'd also like to throw in that Dave is Jewish, Dan was raised Catholic and John and Mike are Atheist.
@Krow83 i made that comment almost one year ago i was an ignorant kid then sorry ime not racsist or anything like that ime a christian but sorry for offending you
lol np dude..... McCain wasn't all that bad.... he just wasn't that good.... his biggest downfall was Palin; which proved he just wanted to win the election, not focus help the country. I mean, what other benefit is there to having Palin as VP, than to pull over all the Hilary fans? Who obviously wasn't very popular anyways XD
Tbh, I think Obama was the best choice during that election.
@Krow83 i think that palin would be a better canidate then mcCain anyday bro...i mean she a well spoken women and she knows how to run shit better then obama i mean shes been in the doverner position i think or the senate idk for a long time i mean obamas been there 4 2 yrs and he only voted yes to one question in his whole career and that was abortion i think he only got elected cuz he was black
This is why I love David Draiman so much. He's not only a wonderful musician but he's also well educated and highly intelligent. I normally don't pay attention to celebrities when they talk politics but he is definitely an exception to that.
Was just laughing at how disinterested the rest of the band was, here David is, very well educated, unlike some of his peers were before their musical careers(Chester at Burger King at Corey cleaning up crap with a GED), so his band mates would naturally appear to care very little about politics.
David is an articulate guy, so he expresses himself well, from what I understand he likely leaned Republican after 9/11, and he lyrically expressed his sense of betrayal with "Deify" and has shifted.
He's being very careful with his words. Aswell he should be he isn't in a position where he can just pick a side. He'd be disappointing people on either side so he's neutral. Not here nor there but will accept whatever outcome takes place. I agree on what he said about Clinton though she's a viper. I am so glad this guy chose to stay neutral I wouldnt be able to listen to his songs knowing what side he might have chosen. Whcih would depress me to no end wince I adore his music. So thank GOD! lol
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I appreciate the musical skills of Disturbed but it's always disappointing when bands stop the music and start promoting liberal politics. David says that Obama has the skills to unify our nation. Really? Does Disturbs explicit lyrics that shock people with violence and rage unify people to come together? This band is hypocritical to say anything about unity for the common good of the culture.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
David is just bullshitting about Obama because I'm sure he would be afraid to lose fans who all jump on the Obama bandwagon. Clearly he states here he supports McCain. He's just trying to keep his fanbase stable.
So yes he's just bullshitting about Obama. I don't think David gives a fuck about him.
It's unfortunate what he said about Hillary. The "in thing" is to bash her, and that's what people have done for a long time, but no one comes up with anything real to say. I love David, but I would expect some more informed responses about politics (although this was a short interview) from a political science major.
I don't however expect intelligent responses from the rest of the populace. Otherwise, I would be EXTREMELY disappointed.
Hitler "united" Germany too. I don't mean to compare Obama with Hitler but I am merely illustrating the point that uniting people does not make you a good leader.
Uniting people is in fact the definition of a good leader, so you are wrong.
To lead people, you must give them a common goal for them to unite with and strive for.
And Hitler did not unite Germany. Not by a long shot. There were many many factions that hated his guts and wanted him out. Just because we see the screaming crowds doesn't mean the country was united.
His cabinet is full of deceitful lying people. He is taking this country down the wrong path. Bush was bad, Obama is worse. It would be interesting to hear David's opinion now that Obama is President.
So do you believe that Bush was taking us down the right path? Taking away peoples liberties? You state that Obama's cabinet is a bunch of liars. What about the bush administration? they're war criminals. I see them as being significantly more deceitful. They all lied to us and helped launched us into an illegal war. Bush is a war criminal who ran this country into the ground and took away the rights of the people. I'm not Obama's #1 fan at all, but Bush was clearly, a far worse president.
Seetherman17 clearly states that Bush was bad, and yes Bush did not take us down the right path, but he is very much correct Obama is much worse. He has weakened our national security. Accumulated more debt than George Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush COMBINED (holy crap). I also want to state that the National Health system he's trying to set up is pathetic. Even though Bush was a terrible president (which I agree with you completely) Obama is worse than Bush.
in his music, he's so dark and intense, kinda scary. but in interviews, he talks in a normal voice and really thinks about his answers. if you watch this, and then a disturbed music video, the difference is amazing. i love inside the fire, by the way.
