	A feeble stab at revealing how "immoral" the American Left Wing's approach to justice by rattling off a series of uninspired cliches that were frequently slapped on the Democratic party during the 1990s courtesy of a band that spent the first half of its career writing about Satanism, sacrificing virgins, and necrophelia. Slayer have never been known for great lyrics, and a bunch of insipid ABABABABAB forced rhymes is all that's to be found here. The title is clumsy enough and reflects Slayer's not-so-thorough knowledge of modern politics: as Death Disco mentioned, "dittohead" is a term used to disparage fans of Conservative windbag and all-around douche Rush Limbaugh. Maybe it meant something different in 1994, perhaps a more general term to insult idealogues in general. Well guess what Slayer, o great muses of our age: it's 11 years later and conservatives are the ones stealing elections, obstructing justice, invading sovereign nations on faulty or downright false pretenses, changing the rules to suit their own agenda, and promoting blind obedience through it all. And GodHatesACoward? Right-wing policies only offer people greater freedom in theory. We aren't seeing much of that in practice anymore.

	1. Why is this song called Dittohead? 2. Are the lyrics serious or sarcastic? 3. The violent crime rate (per capita) in the U.S. was around the same in 1994 as it was in the previous 30 years and has halved since then (http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/glance/viort.gif). So obviously the line "Here in 1994, Things are different than before" is wrong. 4. And if they are serious, don't you think it's ironic that a band that has built its career upon singing about murder, mutilation and necrophilia is complaining about violence?
