This is the same Billie Joe whose fans went home from an "American Idiot" anniversary concert surprised that he got "political". I reckon there's plenty of scope there.
"Are we the idiots?"
That's almost as good as the people who drag on RATM for being political. But not nearly as good as fans shit talking Morello and telling him he needs to stick to what he knows.
