I would vote for Madonna over Bush in a heartbeat- seriously.

I love her!
Bush never Won He is what the Conservative Party tries to say what Affirmative-Action is about.Bush got the Hook&has always gotten the Hook up with His Glassy-Eyed Self.I Wouldn't Want Madonna for a President but She still is a babe&I Respect Her Track Record as a Artist.

MATERIAL GIRL IN A POLITICAL WORLD: MADONNA PLANS VIDEO TO PROTEST WAR, BUSH

**Exclusive**

Madonna is hoping to cause maximum controversy with a new video from her forthcoming CD, AMERICAN LIFE, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

Editing is in progress on a musical video concept which insiders say may be the most shocking anti-war, anti-Bush statement yet to come from the showbusiness industry.

"She's taking it all the way this time," one source said from Los Angeles over the weekend, "pushing all of the buttons... It is a sweeping political commentary on the modern 'American Dream' and how 'nothing is what is seems.'"

The song will be released to radio next week.

Dressed in commando fatigues, Madonna throws grenades as the techno terror beat pounds, claims a source. Limb-less men and women are reportedly shown, with bloody babies.

One disturbing clip features Iraqi children.

"The video escalates into a mad frenzy depicting the catastrophic repercussion and horror of war."

Madonna spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg did not return repeated calls seeking comment.

The shock film for AMERICAN LIFE comes as Madonna returns to the musical spotlight with a CD of original songs, set for an April release.

"AMERICAN LIFE is about freedom of speech," claims an insider. "It examines not only war, greed and ego, but it's self-reflective also. Madonna rejects her 'Material Girl' image once and for all, and warns of life in a material world."



Cheap scandal-addict.

I would like to see her (or any other public figure) cut to the real root of the problem and come out against this countries support of Isreal. This will never happen however because it would cause a backlash from within their own circle. Honestly, if we took a fair approach to middle eastern affairs, Iraq having nukes would not be an issue anymore than a coiuntry like India that already has such weapons. The real question is, why are they are enemies? And please don't come with "Saddam is a tyrant" bs. We don't even want to start listing all the tyrants that are in bed with the US right now.

I bet the video will be censored in the States.


Or, at the very least, she will be called anti-american, and pro-"Old Europe".


Only in America would we censor the truth sad

Who knows, really, what prompts Madonna to do something like this... I don't. I know this much though, whether she is doing it for attention, whether she is doing it for a cause she truly believes in, whatever she is doing it for, is her business.

I feel I want to defend her, because she is 'doing something'. And the statement that she makes, is one that I agree with.

NO. WAR.
