I'm not into politics but this is ridiculous if its true

What year is this again?

http://tyrannyoftradition.com/2012/02/10/rick-santorum-declares-war-on-heavy-metal/

black sabbath and maiden are hardly 'new'.

Oh pleeeeeze, this is fake. If it's not from "The Onion," then someone's doing a good job of copying their style.

Quote :

"In a recent Gallup Poll, 87 percent of Republican voters think that the biggest problem in America today is “the demented bloodlust of teenagers caused entirely by heavy metal music.”

Quote :

He stepped up his rhetoric in a speech on Wednesday when he implied that heavy metal is the cause of many forms of mental illness as well as lactose intolerance.

Quote :

Santorum has openly advocated the forced re-education of metalheads. They would be forced to endure 30 days of non-stop “values based” music that promotes the American way of life as well as the free market. In order to leave, they will have to sing the chorus to at least one Celine Dion song.

I don't think that's a serious article; I think it's like The Onion. Am I the only one who caught this:

announced Santorum at a 10,000 dollar a plate sock-hop in Valdosta, Georgia on Thursday.

Damn, FF beat me to it.

A bunch of my Facebook friends sent me that link, like they expected me to get all pissed off. I didn't have the heart to tell them that it's bogus. Haha.

Considering how big of an idiot Santorum is(and no, i'm not a liberal) it wouldn't have surprised me.

Its like the Gore's of old!!!

Hey, I have never been accused of being a liberal and Santorum is a douche bag!!!!! Unfortunately some people (like said douche bag) think that morality should be legislated.

Interested - the PMRC was started by bored housewives from the Democratic party.... looks like the douche bags migrated to the Republican party!!!!

We're on the same page on the Santorum. The Santorum: The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex. Google it.

If you really think this is a true story then you are an idiot. Did you notice some of the other articles: Hipster Terrorists Taken Into Custody After Attempted Hijacking Of 70,000 Tons of Metal Cruise - or - Celtic Frost Reunite To Rock Needlebaum Bar Mitzvah.

Come on guys, it's called satire. Good lord.

Someone's been reading Dan Savage....

It is a fake site. They posted other articles saying that Obama was Overkill's original drummer, that Cronos from Venom is Kate Middleton's uncle, and that Manowar claimed Guam as their own to escape from America's False Metal Agenda.

Yeah, on second thought it's a bad example.

I don't know the guy, I read this sometime last month on MSN probably. Maybe it was him? I really don't know what the story behind it is, but I'm guessing he's not a Santorum fan.

I'm a liberal, but I really doubt that this is true.
