[And in the next issue of Ozone magazine, the rapper David Banner expanded the indictment of Bush to include a disregard not just for blacks, but for the poor as well.] I'm glad Kanye said what he said on NBC, ... The president never gave a damn about black folks.

[In the article, which appears in the November 2005 issue of the magazine, Bush confirms that the original idea for the band's current reunion trek was to bring both Belladonna and Bush on tour, as ANTHRAX had planned in 2000, but Bush claims that he wasn't interested.] At one time, I had been willing to tour with Joey , but now everything is different, ... It just wasn't in my heart. I figured I had been in this band 12 and a half years, and we felt positive about what we had done, and we all thought our last album, 'We've Come for You All' , was the best record we'd made together. So I just wanted to move forward and do another album.

This is the biggest revolt Bush has faced and it comes on the issue that has been the core and heart of his presidency, namely security.

The hole in the ozone layer expanded this year, and the quantity of ozone destroyed within that area increased as well.

This is a rather schizophrenic indictment.

The sad thing is that people are going to think this is a reflection of rap music. But it's not a reflection ... people have lives outside of the music.
