Excerpts:

"A much more shocking bit of political information can be found in Talk at the end of "Marilyn Manson Has a Secret," Tucker Carlson's profile about the ghoul-rocker. Though Manson has spent his entire career thinking up successful ways to repulse and enrage adult America, it turns out that he is really a conservative, bourgeois guy with strong Republican leanings.

His complaints about America's vulgar, mindless entertainment and people who don't use good grammar make him sound like Bill Bennett. And, most shocking of all, Manson -- who says he loathes Gore and Sen. Joseph Lieberman -- tells Tucker that "If I had to pick, I'd pick Bush, and not necessarily by default."

But Manson backs Bush -- just like the conservatives at National Review do in their newest issue. Not surprisingly, the magazine that William F. Buckley Jr. started but no longer edits day-to-day would prefer a more blatantly conservative Republican. But they reject Gore as a "demagogue," and come out for Bush -- "a modest statesman" who is "aware of his own limitations and those of aggrandized government." END OF EXCERPT
