Its anybody’s guess why you continually used his feudal title in this article. What would the Founding Fathers (who you bring up in just about every article) have to say about this? Personally pledge fielty to nobody so I dont recognize this backwater inbred title shit.

@Josef
Considering the breadth depth and quality of his music “Sir” seems only appropriate.

Plus do you mean the same founding fathers who owned slaves and considered them 3/5 of a person?

Whether or not they owned slaves is totally irrelevant to the discussion. Its a fact that the Founding Fathers were instrumental in the destruction of feudalism and the ushering in of capitalism. titles and royalty and peasants and serfs are strictly in the realm of feudalism. The Founding Fathers were anti-feudalism. As were the majority of colonists. I’m no capitalist myself but the capitalists of 250 years ago were the communists of today. And capitalism pisses all over feudalism in terms of the quality of life for the average person.

So yes. The Founding Fathers are rolling over in their graves that 250 years after the defeat of feudalism people (and Americans no less) still hold feudal titles with some bizarre esteem instead of the contempt they deserve.

Also Paul McCartney is shit in general.

@Josef
So you’re anti-capitalism? Say no more.

“Paul McCartney is shit in general?” Now you’ve really lost me. What do you clap your hands and play the flute? What kind of music do u like if you’re anti-Paul McCartney? Death metal? Yanni?

Paul McCartney is an old has-been drug addled ferret wearer that tries to drive his ex-wife to suicide. Allegedly. The Beatles were shit. So was Wings and I have never bought one of his gay records and never will. Also The Founding Fathers were to all intents and purposes homosexual lovers that mutually masturbated one another after they were rejected from Europe for being completely fucking insane and worshipping God. There now fuck off you dirty tramps and buy my record. My record is www. goatse. cz . It’s called babble like a loon with a primitive instrument and be worshipped by intellectually challenged people like all Americans are.

“He also noted that he too was one of the millions who downloaded Radiohead’s “In Rainbows” paying “something reasonable.”"

I would be reeeeally curious to know how much. Paul is a notorious cheapskate.
