RATM V The X-factor

There is currently a battle going on in the UK to see who will be number 1 at Xmas, either The X Factor or Rage against the Machine.
A facebook site has been launched as a reaction to the god-awful manufactured pop that the X-factor produces and to try and prevent them
from getting yet another xmas number 1.

To the uninitiated the X-factor is a 'talent' show on UK tele headed by Simon Cowell aimed at discovering the next talentless pop star
who will be marketed to death for a year and then dropped in readiness for the next puppet to come along next year.

Personally it annoys me so i want RATM and 'Killing in the name' to get to number 1

If anyone is interested, here are some good links x

Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses.
Those who died, are justified, for wearing the badge, they're the chosen whites...

I don't watch much tv so thankfully I get to miss all this reality tv shit. Even if the song was good I still didn't want it to make #1. Sanity has prevailed!
