MARILYN MANSON Regrets Pro-BUSH Comments

May 27, 2006

The Irish Examiner is reporting that shock rocker Marilyn Manson feels partly responsible for George W. Bush winning the U.S. presidential election in 2000.

In an interview with talk show host Tucker Carlson at the time, the controversial rocker sarcastically condemned Democrat candidate Al Gore and told his fans to vote Bush.

Manson says: "He won by such a small amount, and particularly because it was in Florida.

"Who's to say there weren't a couple of our fans who took my sarcasm seriously and voted for him?"

Marilyn Manson recently reunited with his longtime manager Tony Ciulla's Posthuman Entertainment firm. He continues being repped legally by Danny Hayes at Davis Shapiro Lewit Montone & Hayes.

Manson is currently puting the finishing touches on his sixth LP, tentatively due before the end of the year.
