The writer of the article even calls both political parties for a comment in regards to Morrissey.

A spokesman for Bush said 'Who cares what England thinks', LOL.
Surely he must see the irony in that. He is doing exactly what SOME American politicians are being critisized for in the song.
Just keep digging yourselves deeper Bush Camp.

iactually thought the article quite funny. (Score:1)
one thing idont get- this is the second article ive read in the past week or so thats descibed the early part of Morrissey's career, after 'Viva Hate', as being a string of weak albums. correct me if im wrong, but from '88 to '94 theres only one record that was really panned and thats 'Kill Uncle'. 'Vauxhall And I' was number one in the UK forchrissake! since when has 'Bona Drag', a compilation containg some of his most successful and celebrated singles, been regarded as weak? yes, Morrissey had his problems in the early to mid-90's with accusations of racism, but the music was always reviewed excellently despite that rubbish. Morrissey's only real "string" of ill-criticism regarding his music was during 'Southpaw Grammar' [undeservedly] and 'Maladjusted' [unfortuantely, fairly deserved] followed by years of nothing at all. these articles, the other from this months NME [ithink], make the 90's seem like a huge failure on the whole for Moz- this couldnt be further from the truth. as far as im concerned, the 90's saw the best album of Morrissey's career, including The Smiths' albums, in 'Vauxhall And I' and then another brilliant highlight not too far behind in 'Your Arsenal'. for me, '88-'94 matches '83-'87.

Besides ignoring the rest of the lyrics (notice there's no musical commentary at all...just lyrical bashing), he ignores the rest of the album and fails to note "Irish Blood..."
At least Morrissey isn't going to waste his time in Texas.
