Beth Ditto brands Bush a 'fascist'

Gossip's front woman Beth Ditto has slammed US president George Bush and branded him as a 'fascist'.

The American singer lashed out at Bush when she was asked about her political views and what she thought about the man running the country.

She told The Advocate: "George Bush is absolutely a fascist piece of s***.

"As a radical queer, there's never anybody I can 100% trust in politics. It's a f***ing joke to even call it a debate with the idea that we (haven't yet treated) human beings like they are on the same par with everyone else, from homos to immigrants.

"It's two-thousand-f***ing-seven, get with the programme, you know? There's so many candidates and it's like the worst of two evils - not that I think they're necessarily evil.

"There are things I don't trust, because when money is involved, it changes everything. You can't trust people to be in charge of a lot of people when there's that much money at stake."
