SYSTEM OF A DOWN's Serj Tankian and PEARL JAM's Eddie Vedder are among the artists speaking out against President Bush in the latest issue of Rolling Stone. "Bush and Cheney and their whole team have been a disaster for the U.S. and the rest of the world," declares Tankian. "The U.N. has been neutralized as a peaceful solution to conflict.
