Rolling Stones Blast Bush On New CD

Political Wire has an interesting quotation from Mick Jagger:

"I think he's a bit worried because he lives in the U.S."

-- Mick Jagger, quoted by Newsweek, on Keith Richards' fears of possible ramifications to criticizing President Bush in songs from their new album, A Bigger Bang

Newsweek also quotes a line from one of the Stones' new songs targetting Bush. It's titled Sweet Neo Con:

"You call yourself a Christian, I call you a hypocrite/You call yourself a patriot, well I think you're full of s—t."

A Bigger Bang will be released on Sept. 6.
