NME: Motorhead's Lemmy: 'Mitt Romney is a monster'

Motorhead frontman Lemmy has called Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney a "monster".

The metal legend made the comments to Rolling Stone, urging readers not to vote for the right-wing candidate in tomorrow's election in the United States.
He said: "Please, please don't vote for Mitt Romney. Fuck him. Repeal abortion law is the first thing he'll do. Fucking monster."

He also spoke about Romney's rival, incumbent President Barack Obama, saying: "I mean, the poor fucker's only just gotten rid of all that George Bush shit that he left, or is trying to. And he's being stonewalled by the fucking Congress all the time. I don't know how he's gotten anything done. They should be glad. I mean the alternative is Mitt Romney."

...with, "I want YOU to vote for Pres. Obama" and post it outside (within legal limits, of course) polling places.

Not much of one actually:

A fine woman I was dating at the time and I were in the Deep Ellum area of Dallas one night. It was one of our first dates, and we were bouncing from bar to bar. On one of our bounces, I noticed Motorhead was playing that night at Trees, one of the premier rock bars of the area. "Goddamn", I said, "fuckin' Motorhead is playing tonight!".

This wonderful woman I was dating said "OK, I'm game."

So we got to see Motorhead. And a few months later I married her. That was over 12 yrs ago.

when we are in public and we hear a Motorhead song, we look at each other, smile, lift our glasses and wink.

Lemmey knows more about American politics than most American conservatives.
