Heh. The elections are in 5 days. That is what determines who wins.

Good video. Stylistic and rather positive. I somehow doubt they've been playing it on Mtv tho.

So Eminem has had an:
anti establishment song
anti homosexuality song
anti Eminem's entire family song.
anti Bush song
anti Moby song

Infact, is there anyone this guy hasn't pissed off, attempted to humiliate or verbally destroy?

Again, do you have an example of this? If you call someone antihomesexuality simply because they use the word fag the is something wrong with you.

anti Eminem's entire family song.
He has said a lot of bad things about his mom, I wouldn't call that anti-family. He has a lot of love for his daughter and his brother. Sure, he doesn't like his mom; however, there is a very good reason for that. If your mom was a drug addict that left you on your own and then when you made good money tried to sue you you would be pissed too.

anti Moby song
Moby attacked him first, he simply responded. In fact, this was the case for everyone he has ever attacked.

The above list you made is pretty much it, why don't you get informed first?

No Limit, every single one of his family, including his mum and brother have said that everything he says in his songs is utter rubbish and they sued him for liable. I have many gay friends, and being called words like that to them is just as bad as a black guy being called the 'n' word. If you say the 'n' word, you're classified as racist, why is it different if you call someone gay by saying they're a 'fag'.

For an anti-establishment song, you just need to buy any of his albums and listen to what he says.

I don't hate Eminem, i like some of his music, mainly the funny ones and some of the ones he has done with D12, but he does rap songs that are offensive to a lot of people.

Very nice video. Song isn't the best I've heard from him, but the video is great.

If you find his music offensive then, no offense, but you are a pussy. Let me explain. I don't know about you but I hear people using the word fag on a regular basis. I have absolutely no problems with gay people, but if they take someone being called a fag personally they need to grow up. Being white and Polish I have been called many colorful things, all of us have because of our race, personality, or whatever. Gay people are all for equal rights, if you are a gay person that wants these equal rights but you think a boycott should be called every time someone makes fun of someone using a word that is offensive to you, you are a hypocrite. I have never heard of anyone getting upset with a black rapper, comedian, or actor for using the word cracker. I think gay people should have as much rights as we do, but that will never happen if they make a huge controversy when someone says the word fag or calls someone gay.

His mom is the only one that sued him, his mom might have also sued in his brothers name as the brother has no control over it since he is under 18 and in her custody. I don't think his brother has a problem with Eminem especially since he appeared in his video. His mom is a total bitch and there is lots of proof of this. She has tried to get rich off of his sucess numerous times using dirty tricks and even released a tape complaining about him.
