I’m so going to hell for this one… But like laughing at retarded people, sometimes you just can’t help it. I’ve been hearing about original Guns N’ Roses drummer Steven Adler’s ‘performance’ on the new season of Celebrity Rehab…

I finally got around to hitting YouTube, and you know what… It’s not really that funny. It’s sad. The obvious question had crossed my mind: Is it worth some commentary on Antiquiet? And, well, by itself, no it isn’t. But there’s been so much talk about it- maybe not on music sites, but around the nation’s water coolers, and on the radio- yet, Steven Adler was not the biggest human spectacle this week. At least not in my opinion. Check out these two competing disasters, and tell us what you think.

The guys over at above-thefold captured this video of Rage Against The Machine doing an impromptu a capella performance of Bulls On Parade and Killing In The Name before a massive crowd outside the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis on Tuesday, after officials refused to allow them onstage to play.

Grabbing a bullhorn, Zack De la Rocha led the crowd through the sing-along, accompanied by Tom Morello making retarded guitar sounds with his mouth. The performances are understandably laughable, but the message resonated clearly: Rage Against The Machine are a bunch of goddamned hippies.

Just kidding. Once the “Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me”s died down, Zack and Co. then joined the massive crowd in a peaceful march toward the Xcel Energy Centre, which triggered over 100 arrests.

Here’s a sizzling little clip from last night’s Daily Show. Stewart lays out a few classic examples of the GOP’s fair-weather fury and entirely flexible ideals when it comes to VP nom Sarah Palin, but he leaves most of the talking to the attack dogs themselves…

Got a shitload of money from ass-raping the American public, and you don’t know what to do with it all? Why not buy the next leader of the free world!

ExxonMobil is sponsoring CNN’s coverage of both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions. They’re sponsoring CBS’s political news coverage as well. A startling bit of news, since it’s no secret that, while claiming to be politically neutral, ExxonMobil PAC gives 87% of its total political donations to Republicans (particularly those sluggish on alternative fuels), while only offering 13% to Democrats. Now how do you suppose that will affect coverage?
