Charles Manson is one freaky mo fo!

Manson recently broke his 20 year silence to give his views on President Barack Obama & Global Warming.  

If you are not familiar with Charlie, here is some background on the mad man:

Manson was a cult leader in the late 60's who ran a group called "The Family".  In August of 1969, over two nights, members of the Manson Family killed eight people including actress Sharon Tate, who at the time was married to Roman Polanski.   Tate, at the time of her murder was pregnant.

Although Manson did not physically kill any of the victims, he is held responsible for planning the attacks.  If you want to learn more about this terrible crime and the people involved, read "Helter Skelter".  The book was written by the man responsible for putting Manson behind bars,  Vincent Bugliosi.  I read it years ago.  No lie, some parts are tough to read but what a bizarre story to say the least.

However, Manson did not break his silence to talk about the murders.  Instead he wanted to talk about President Obama and Global Warming.

Manson told Spain's Vanity Fair that, quote:

"Everyone's God and if we don't wake up to that there's going to be no weather because our polar caps are melting because we're doing bad things to the atmosphere".

In regards to President Obama, Manson called him, quote:

"A slave of  Wall Street".  He goes on to say:

"I think Obama is an idiot for doing what he's doing, they're playing him".

I am sure some people believe none of his thoughts or words should be published.  Nonetheless, people for years have been intrigued by Manson and continue to be so.

Even Guns N' Roses recorded one of his songs, "Look at Your Game, Girl" for the "Spaghetti Incident" album.  I was and still am a GN'R fan, but I totally remember being creeped out by the fact they recorded this.

What are your thoughts?  Interested or disgusted?
