	Blistering.com Review: Rock Against Bush - Compilation
		The Rock Against Bush compilation features 26 songs from the elite of the world’s punk and rock bands including the Descendents, Ministry, DOA featuring Jello Biafra, Less Than Jake featuring Billy Bragg, NOFX, Sum 41, Anti-Flag and the Ataris.
		However, at the heart of Rock Against Bush Vol.1 is the will to empower the rock and punk generation to discard its apathetic attitude and speak out —or at least vote.
		It must be difficult to try to speak out against the majority —or at least Bush supporters appear to be the majority from what their well-oiled propaganda machine tells us down under.

		Rock Against Bush Volume 2 is a compilation of the finest punk and alternative rock bands today,and features twenty-eight impressive tracks, some of which were previously unreleased and are considered rare tracks.
		These bands should be commended for ebign brave enough to go against the corporate media machine and risk precious sales by potentially alienating themselves from peopel who may disagree with their statement.
		Unfortunantly people these days seem to be concentrated against just one political party, idiots...all politicians talk out both sides of their mouths, don''t turn you back to the democrats while you are fighting the GOP or you will get stabbed in the back.

	"Rock Against Bush Vol. 1" - America's Debate
		Forgive me. I have been against Bush since he was the governor of Texas so this album was not a deciding factor for my affiliation and I have strongly believed in voting anyway.
		I think they should look at Bush's record, his values, and his actions to decide whether he is a candidate that they like.
		A politician slamming Bush in public is most often doing so for personal gain and out of support for their own party and best interests.

	Review : Rock Against Bush - Volume 1
		The Bush administration has singlehandedly undermined the freedoms, civil rights and liberties of people worldwide, effectively turning “the land of the free” into a real “DE-MOCK-RACY.” Rock Against Bush shows, beyond any doubt, that the U.S. government criminally misled the American public about the pivotal issues we face as a nation.
		Rock Against Bush contains previously unreleased and rare tracks from the likes of Anti-Flag, Sum 41, Descendents, Offspring, Pennywise, New Found Glory, NOFX, Alkaline Trio and more -- artists that have a strong influence in their particular scenes.
		While there are those who may argue over the ‘punk’ credibility of a particular band or their personal motivations for contributing to Rock Against Bush, that is entirely missing the point.

		The tour is bound to intensify the simmering conflict between Bush's campaign and the entertainment industry's liberal elements, which have become a rapidly growing source of support for Kerry.
		Along with the record-breaking sums of money Bush and Kerry have raised and the sharp partisan divisions in opinion polls, the tour is a measure of the intense passions the 2004 campaign has generated.
		The musicians will perform not only in Democratic strongholds but in many of the swing communities Kerry and Bush are courting in their campaigning.

		In a typical example of American rock 'n' roll, one of the biggest anti-President Bush tours of the year was making a stop at The Fillmore, which is owned by Clear Channel, a big supporter of our president.
		Yes it is important to get Bush out of office, but things are not going to suddenly be perfect if Kerry is in there, and Morello was the only one to point this out.
		One of the highlights of their set were two people in Bush and Kerry masks getting on stage and getting each other in a headlock.
