Randy “Macho Man” Savage stands clear as the voice of our generation, an American treasure not to be discounted. When he sings “Don’t be a punk, Hogan,” how can one not hearken back to Thoreau’s “Civil Disobedience” and its lightning-strike criticism of societal constructs?

Stand aside, Mr. O’Reilly. Warm up your justice machine, Ashcroft. Put down your microphone, Eminem. Hulkamania, like McCarthyism, will stand the test of time only as a shameful mistake in our history. There is a new glittering star shining a harsh, revealing light on the ills of our society, and his music will be the anthem to which all Americans will march proudly into the future.
