Eminem: Not a fan of Bush

Foul-mouthed rapper Eminem is planning on voting for the first time ever this year - but it won't be for George Bush.

Having penned his disdain for the President in his new track 'Mosh', the singer has now admitted he'll be exercising his right to vote on November 2nd. That said, he still isn't certain whether he'll pick Bush's main opponent, Democrat candidate John Kerry.

"Bush is definitely not my homie," he told Rolling Stone. "But I'm still undecided. Kerry has been known to say some things that's caught my attention, made a few statements I've liked, but I don't know. Whatever my decision, I would like to see Bush out of office.

"He's been painted to be this hero and he's got our troops over (in Iraq) dying for no reason. He's in a tailspin, running around like a dog chasing his tail. And we got young people over there dyin', kids in their teens, early '20s that should have futures ahead of them. And for what? It seems like Vietnam 2."

He added: "People think their votes don't count, but people need to get out and vote."
