There is nothing wrong with using your voice. In fact, everyone should. However, some people fail to use it in a way that makes any real impact while simultaneously acting like they’re the new Martin Luther King. And, in the words of Against Me! They “Come of kind of contrived and pretentious/you’re not saying anything we haven’t heard before.” We don’t mind voicing your opinion, but stop pretending to be doing anything epic when you’re really not.

(I would like to remind all voters in this poll that the nominations, though overseen, were not picked by the poster. These are almost completely based on suggestions made by the users who submitted nominee ideas. If you decide to attack the user for the nominees then you will only end up humiliating yourself as a result. You have been warned.)

I think some of them actually do care, but bono just likes to pretend he's president of the earth.
beautifails: 11/07/2007 6:13 AM

though Green Day was a close second for my vote...

I can't believe people are voting for Paris and Ashlee when Bono is blatantly the most self-righteous fuckwit known to mankind. Vote Bono!

i dont agree with this poll. your just stirring. bono rocks. sunday bloody sunday? one of the most amazing and heartfelt songs ever. and why is paris hilton on this list?? as far i know she has never written a political song. unless stars are crazy is secretly about the war on terrorism. but i really dont think so/
sandercoen: 11/07/2007 8:26 AM
Ashlee Simpson is fucking hawt.
lotrnerd: 11/07/2007 8:58 AM
OMG.....HOW DO YOU CHOOSE JUST ONE??????????? Ok, admittedly I watch American Idol....and the Green Day political performance (that wasn't even done live) was absolutely hillarious!!!! (they spliced an earlier recorded performance into the finale)!!!
lotrnerd: 11/07/2007 9:01 AM
But I have to vote for C. Love. She's just too drunk n stoned to even be aware of her surroundings, let alone the state of the Earth and the political jockeying that accompanies it.
pumpkin(:: 11/07/2007 9:26 AM
Ashlee Simpson is fucking hawt.
um,in that picture,i think it was better to her not to use anything because that "dress" is too revealing for her.
and everyone's hate Mr. George Bush but nobody makes anything to put him off from the presidency...

1) I do agree that Bono is a bit preechy. But what he was saying about Africa was that that was how fast they were spreading. Not that his clapping was spreading AIDS. So, clearly the person that yelled that had no clue what was going on, because his stopping would've done nothing.

2) Green Day isn't so much preechy, as they are just... political. As people get older, they gradually get interested in politics. And also- I've got to admit- even though it seems Bono is doing it for publicity, he's no fool.

first of all, wendy...Sum 41 Are from CANADA as in, NO President

I think this poll is a bit harsh they're all doing their best, give 'em a break.
bandgeekfreak87: 11/07/2007 10:46 AM
I think Bono's TRYING to help, but he's been repeating the same things so much that I can't take him seriously anymore. Green Day, I was excited that they were getting involved, but I think the band's not quite into it all the way. And Fall Out Boy... What did they do down in Africa anyway besides shoot a video? Couldn't they have done some sort of Habitat for Humanity or SOMETHING? You know, actually give those people a hand?
