Bush White House Might Ban Mick Star

`Jets` the anti-Iraq war song by Mick Star,is rumored to have been banned by the Bush White House. Mick Star, the author of `Jets` and a US born rock artist has set MP3 download records in the UK, France, Germany and Spain. Mick Star`s claim of a Bush White House blacklisting is beginning to catch on as the Pentagon relates the Bush White House `buying` supposed free press in Iraq.

One American record company executive, asking not to be identified for fear of business reprisals by the Bush White House, says, `Last month I didn`t take this Bush White House banning Mick Star story seriously. But now, with more and more stories in the news about how the Bush White House has controlled the Press here in the US and even in Iraq? I don`t know. Mick Star probably has a case. He certainly makes a statement with `Jets`. And, when all else is said and done, it`s just a great David vs. Goliath storyline.`

Mick Star`s Website is offering `Jets` at no charge and encourages swapping. And Mick Star can do all of this in the US despite the rumored Bush White House blacklisting because Mick Star works independent of the traditional music business (record companies, publishing companies, and entertainment attorneys). Mick Star has financed his recordings and posted them online. Beholden to no one, Mick Star can speak freely. And on `Jets,` he does speak freely.
