Janet Jackson: Do I vote? Yes, I do. Will I be voting for Bush? Hell, no!
VAST RIGHT-NIPPLE CONSPIRACY
August 24, 2004 -- JANET Jackson claims the George Bush White House used her notorious "wardrobe malfunction" to distract the country from the war in Iraq. Speaking about the exposure of her breast during a Super Bowl performance with Justin Timberlake, the paranoid pop tart tells the October issue of Genre magazine: "I truly feel in my heart that the president wanted to take the focus off of him at that time, and I was the perfect vehicle to do so at that moment . . . I mean, it's a bunch of bulls- - -. When you see 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' it just confirms it." Meanwhile, Jackson says she never should have said she was sorry. "I shouldn't have apologized," she tells the mag. "You don't apologize for an accident. It just makes you look guilty." As for the FCC possibly fining CBS for the display: "I think it's all stupid," Jackson declares. "It's all so contradictory. Here you have commercials about Viagra, and all the beer commercials, they're all very sexual." Summing up, she laughs, "Do I vote? Yes, I do. Will I be voting for Bush? Hell, no!"

3. Not so fast...Rove & Card are hi-fivin' over this...
They couldn't have scripted her speech better for Bush if they'd written it themselves.

Bush = Morning in America

Kerry = Bare breasts on your TV

Ho Boy! :crazy:

6. She makes a great point about the ads during sports.
A veritable plethora of male erection drugs & T&A shots in the beer ads (Coors). But a flash of a bare breast & the shit hits the fan.

10. but isn't Britanny Spears speaking at the GOP convention?
Isn't she a contradiction to their (public)morally holier- than -tho "family values"? I thought she had a bad reputation amongst wingnuts. :shrug:

16. no Bob Dole likes her
You forgot the Pepsi commerical, "down boy", looks like Bob Dole and his dog had the hots for Brittany but I often think illogically.

8. I can't believe...
... I'm wasting my 600th post on Janet Jackson.

But really, this isn't going to turn anyone AWAY from Kerry and TOWARD bush*. Anyone who's offended by Janet's words or breasts is already lined up to vote straight rethug ticket come Nov. On the other hand, there might be someone out there who hasn't seen F9/11 yet who reads or hears her statement and goes, "Dang, what's this Janet is talking about? Maybe I should see that too." Seems insane that people would care what Janet has to say about politics, but remember that this is a country where people stay up all night punching the buttons on their phones trying to register their votes for American Idol. This shit matters.

9. Do I care? Only enough to reply to this post. NO.
Why should voting be a way to promote yourself, for pity's sake?
