So self-parodic is this all the way around the horn that I can’t muster the requisite outrage. Of course David Crosby thinks American soldiers are out to kill women. Of course Graham Nash thinks “dialogue” is the answer to suicidal jihadism. Of course Chris Matthews doesn’t think he’s a Marxist even as he’s mouthing rhetoric straight from the Daily Worker. Of course, of course.
A lot of golden moments packed into 130+ seconds but if I have only one to take with me to the grave, it’s the knowing look Nash shoots Matthews after he very smartly suggests opposing the war as a good way for the Church to distract people from that nasty business with the altar boys. You’re nobody’s fool, Nashy!

Tin soldiers and Bush is coming
They’re still not on their own
This winter I hear the drumming
Four dead in Kar-bal-a
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting them down
Man these old hippies just don’t change their worldviews

Job of U.S. soldiers is killing “sons and brothers,” says Mojave Mark.
…at least the ones into commiting mass murder for Mohammad.
Mojave Mark on October 15, 2007 at 7:52 PM
They should do a cover of “I’m an A$$hole” by whats his name and the other fellas.
BL@KBIRD on October 15, 2007 at 7:53 PM
The job of alcohol, cociane, and assorted other intoxicants is killing David Crosby’s liver and brain cells.
Mission Accomplished!!
thirteen28 on October 15, 2007 at 7:53 PM
Actually, their job is to kill brothers and sons, and I’m very happy with the job they’re doing.
It’s the Islamists’ job to kill their own mothers and sisters.
Fork you, Dave. Go smoke another bowl.

Sorry Mojave Mark… great minds and such.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Matthews? HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
David Crosby is the LAST person in the world that should be taken seriously on ANY subject. His opinion not only counts for NOTHING it counts for minus points.
commonsensehoosier on October 15, 2007 at 7:57 PM
just noticed something, this proves that much of Ron Pauls support is not coming from Republicans. go to his webiste, http://www.ronpaul2008.com/
at the top, they have in big headlines a notice to let them know they have to be registered Republican to vote for him in primaries and when the state deadlines are. he is using the party that he’s never been a real part of, and should be kicked out. but won’t.

Mojack420 on October 15, 2007 at 8:04 PM
Mission accomplished on the brain cells, but I’ve just received breaking news that Crosby’s liver is still holding on, presumably in its ‘last throws’.
BadgerHawk on October 15, 2007 at 8:04 PM
Someone needs to do a quick 2 question survey:
1) Are you against the war on Terrorism?
2) How many bowls have you smoked so far today?
I’m sure the results would be interesting.
Timothy S. Carlson on October 15, 2007 at 8:05 PM
They should pull back to the spleen, the war is lost, they must retreat, they’re only causing more problems

No Einstein, American Soldiers’ Mission is to defend the liberties that YOU use to attack them.

Nice catch. I’m an independant who almost always votes Repubican, but I’ve sometimes thought about registering as a Dem just to vote for more moderate candidates in the primaries.
BadgerHawk on October 15, 2007 at 8:07 PM
I like when Crosby says “The church should get in line and support what “WE” believe in”. Typical leftist. They’re right and you should believe what they tell you no matter what.
Kowboy on October 15, 2007 at 8:08 PM
This must be the 1st war ever where this has happened.
Wade on October 15, 2007 at 8:09 PM
I hate to disappoint you, Mr. Crosby – but I must not be doing my job very well. I haven’t harmed a single “mother” or “sister”. I cannot promise the same for @#$%^&* men who have shot at me and mine, however. Would you have a problem with that?
major john on October 15, 2007 at 8:10 PM

Is Crosby still inseminating for drug money?

Dude, quit insulting hippies.
Sing? Wow, I thought people here knew talent.
On-my-soap-box on October 15, 2007 at 8:11 PM
The job of US Soldiers is to ensure that wack jobs like David Crosby can speak their minds freely without thoughts of reprisals. Geesh!!
Claimsratt on October 15, 2007 at 8:11 PM
You’re absolutely right…Larry, Moe, Curly (and Shemp too), I apologize.
JetBoy on October 15, 2007 at 8:13 PM
My only question is which one is the biggest scum bag . . . Matthews or Crosby? Who really gives a rat’s backside what these two idiots think or say?
rplat on October 15, 2007 at 8:14 PM
Now we are insulting idiots?
On-my-soap-box on October 15, 2007 at 8:18 PM
He should have asked Crosby, why, being the peace loving lad he is, was he toting that 357 on TWO different arrests?
I saw him in concert on the same tour he was first arrested for gun possession, and he was sweating like a whore in church and couldn’t remember the words to his own songs.
Wonder if he still packs heat?
commonsensehoosier on October 15, 2007 at 8:23 PM
I still like the song Daylight Again, which has the famous refrain “Find the cost of freedom”. Too bad both these guys are still whacked out.

David Crosby already had a liver transplant in 1995. Seems with his money, he got to go to head of the line.
chewydog on October 15, 2007 at 8:29 PM
He probably just traded a vile of his “seed” for the liver. Anybody check Etheridge for scars?

There’s no reason to rebut anything that every American who isn’t a loon knows hows to rebut themselves.

Mojack420 on October 15, 2007 at 8:36 PM
If I remember correctly, David Crosby is the guy who wanted to send the marines into Columbia to destroy the druglords and the cocoa crops. Of course, this was just after he was finally detoxed.
I guess when it comes to fighting his own drug addiction, “killing is the answer.”
swampleg on October 15, 2007 at 8:41 PM
Leave to Matthews to use the word of dopeheads as
gospel. Can’t put my finger on the head of the three
nitwits. Crosby seems to be in the lead but it’s
going to be a photo finish.

This just proves… you smoke enough weed and you lose all sense of reality, become as untalented as the average democrat politician, and the topper… you actually believe that othere folks care about what you think.
It’s also pretty telling that at this point in their lives these two couldn’t write a good song to save their soul.

Crosby did get a new liver. This excerpt is from a song by the band CAKE called “Rock and Roll Lifesyle”:
Aging black leather and hospital bills,
Tattoo removal and dozens of pills.
Your liver pays dearly now for youthful magic moments,
But rock on completely with some brand new components.
How do you afford your rock’n'roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock’n'roll lifestyle?

I wonder when those two were in church last? And as far as Matthews going to church, does the priest he was talking about condone abortion and homosexuality?

If I’m not mistaken, I think the walking, talking toxic waste dump known as David Crosby has already has his original liver replaced.
Actually, according to Wikipedia, he has.
thirteen28 on October 15, 2007 at 9:20 PM
Isn’t it nice that our brave soldiers and our wonderful country enable these intellectually lazy SOBs to sit safe and snug and preach how evil America is. I am so f***ing sick of it. I wish with all my might that these ingrates will get so sick of the “evil empire” and move to one of these God forsaken countries and truly get the chance to see first hand where the evil in the world comes from.
4shoes on October 15, 2007 at 9:20 PM
These guys are just ignorant talking about the churches need to get in line with the people and oppose Iraq.
At the very beginning the people were in favor of toppling Saddam, and the Vatican and the World Council of Churches, that is, most of the “mainline” Protestant denominations, opposed the invasion or were very critical.
silverfox on October 15, 2007 at 9:21 PM
That means some poor corpse gave it up for him. O what dishonor has befallen some poor unfortunate bod.

Hirsi Ali puit it best, and I will never forget this quote…

Mazztek on October 15, 2007 at 9:25 PM
I remember my childhood as a “rebel” in the rural south and how I thought people like Crosby and Nash had such great wisdom. Damn, children are stupid, but I suppose the rebellion part did make sense for a gay child. I suppose it is possible the common path of accepting the status quo and the common path of rejecting the status quo are both embarrassing stupid once one is grown up.
And why haven’t Crosby and Nash grown up since the 1960’s? Is it the drugs?
thuja on October 15, 2007 at 9:28 PM
Why does anyone with a shred of respectability even listen to Chris? He is in the tank for the lefties and cannot be counted on to get to the truth.
And just who are those other two guys? Does their opinion matter so much that they deserve a forum?
csdeven on October 15, 2007 at 9:29 PM
Neither Matthews nor Crosby should have a forum for what are crackpot views. American soldiers don’t deserve the abuse, even is it is coming from scum on a scumbag’s show.
Phil Byler on October 15, 2007 at 9:30 PM
Anti-military, drug taking, old hippies. Yes, let’s listen to what they have to say. It’s so meaningful. The left is getting to the bottom of the barrel if these morons are dragged out to comment. I didn’t like their politics in the ’60’s and I sure as hell can’t stand them now.
katieanne on October 15, 2007 at 9:33 PM
I suspect I can’t even stomach this, so I can’t stand to watch. Besides, the mainstream Senate and House Democrats have said far worse on a regular basis.
RightWinged on October 15, 2007 at 9:40 PM
A completely biased lying weasel (who actually thinks he is NOT biased) giving credibility to a pair of poster boys for the shallow end of the gene pool. And this passes for intelligent (cable) network news commentary????
And what does this say about the recipient of the sperm donation and her
partnerex-partner, who have had a few political comments once in a while???Why does anyone listen to their drivel? Why am I wasting my time typing this comment? AAAARGGHHHHHHH!!

Years ago, I was a kid in my early 20s in Brooklyn, NY. David Crosby played Brooklyn College. Not many people knew he was going to be there, beyond a public service announcement on WNEW-FM in New York City. I being into this sort of stuff back then, went, maybe less than 50 people showed up to an auditorium. Crosby was solo. He was so wasted. He nodded off sitting down playing and dropped his guitar on the floor. He awoke again, played then dozed off, staggered off the stage.
StuLongIsland on October 15, 2007 at 9:48 PM
How can your respect a fat hippie?
Isn’t that a demonstration of his contempt for the glorious body Mother Nature gave him?
(Even if now it looks like something is wasting him away.)
And isn’t becoming a behemoth also a usage of more than his fair share of Nature’s bounty, which should have been donated to starving children in [____________________]? (pick impoverished country)
Hypocrites have an answer for everything but themselves.

With two cats in the yard, my brain is a duck nard,
Now everything is easy ’cause of you.”

And they’re coming to take me away ha-haaa
They’re coming to take me away ho ho hee hee ha haaa
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I’ll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they’re coming to take me away ha haaa
You thought I was a joke when I told you about those soldiers
And so you laughed
You laughed when I said
That not believing me would make me flip my lid
Right? You know you laughed
I heard you laugh. You laughed
You laughed and laughed and then you spat on me
And now you know I’m utterly mad
And they’re coming to take me away ha haaa
They’re coming to take me away ho ho hee hee ha haaa
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds
And basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they’re coming to take me away ha haaa

Don’t blame it on the drugs. There are plenty of non drugging health conscious in music and hollywood. It is a mental health issue. Raging sociopathic narcissism. They have some success, make alot of easy money and suddenly believe they are geniuses. Look at Springsteen, as dumb as a stump. Gets great comfort from Dowd and Krugman. All the idiots in NJ call him the poet laureate of the state. name a Springsteen song that he actually says something nice about the state, the country, the world or life. His message is the same in every song he writes, “(Fill in the blank) sucks but I am courageous and above it all and will overcome how bad (fill in the blank)sucks”.

The permanent effects of a lifetime of drug abuse encapsulated in this wondrous statement: “…it’s time for the church to be a leader to its community; if this is what the people believe, then they need to get in line with it.”
To quote a famous lefty movie line: “you keep using that word (leadership); I think it does not mean what you think it means…”
The coke and heroin have fried your brain, Dave.
Jaibones on October 15, 2007 at 10:52 PM
How is “The Princess Bride” a lefty movie? It’s a classic!
Crosby saying our troops are killing mothers and daughters is hate speech of the most extreme. He indicts all of them with that statement.
Yet the debate over what Rush didn’t say will continue.
redshirt on October 15, 2007 at 11:09 PM
In case someone hasn’t mentioned it, Crosby is the same man who allowed someone else to die while he had himself moved to the front of the line for a liver transplant. Contrast his actions with those of the late Walter Payton.

Baldilocks, you may have taken a sabbatical from writing, but please continue here. Your words touch me, and here you have a place of belonging so special that you cannot be replaced.
Walter Payton.
The first time of many I will repeat his name.
RushBaby on October 15, 2007 at 11:32 PM
According to Charles, Crosby paid a lot of money to be moved to the front of the line. (His liver was damaged by drugs, alcohol and Hep C.) I’d call it a very expensive murder fee. The nerve of some people.
baldilocks on October 15, 2007 at 11:37 PM
These douche still live in the 60’s. They started out mentally deficient and can’t see the irony in their points of view when they attack their own culture.

RushBaby,
Thanks for cheering me up. Thinking of Walter had me kind of down. ‘Sweetness’ is gone and Crosby is still here. :::sigh:::
baldilocks on October 15, 2007 at 11:42 PM
They kill women if the women deserve killing. If the women stay out of the war, they don’t get killed. Pretty simple.

It’s so disappointing. I really enjoyed the music of Crosby Stills & Nash (and the early Crosby Stills Nash & Young). So many of their songs will never stop being aired. Anyone who has seen them knows what I mean (I saw them in 1977, 82, and 91).
… why do they have to be such a-political douchenozzles???
