CMU reports that Eminem has jumped on the Bush-bashing musical band-wagon. Better late than never eh there Slim? Nice to see you aren't following the crowd or anything.

Speaking to Rolling Stone magazine, Slim Shady says: "Bush is definitely not my homie. Kerry has been known to say some things that's caught my attention, made a few statements I've liked but I don't know - I am still undecided. But, whatever my decision, I would like to see Bush out of office."

The comments follow the inclusion of an anti-Bush rap on forthcoming album 'Encore', is which Eminem rhymes: "Let the president answer on higher anarchy / Strap him with an AK-47, let him go fight his own war / Let him impress daddy that way...No more blood for oil".

In the interview Mr Mathers continues: "He's been painted to be this hero and he's got our troops over there dying for no reason. He's in a tailspin, running around like a dog chasing his tail. And we got young people over there dyin', kids in their teens, early 20s that should have futures ahead of them. And for what? It seems like Vietnam 2. People think their votes don't count but people need to get out and vote".

Marty's band, Growing Old Disgracefully, can be found on: CD Baby His Cthulhu tales can be found at Temple of Dagon.
