I took out the video part(According to the band's July newsletter, a music video is in the making and almost complete. ) because the link is clearly talking about a "Vicarious" video —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skute (talk • contribs)

[edit] Citation needed? ...Really?

The origin of the song title is from the idiom "The pot calling the kettle black." This information was known even before the album was released... even before it was leaked onto the internet. The source was cited when this information was on the Tool (band) page, why isn't it cited here?--SeanQuixote | talk | my contribs 21:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Drug War rant?

I have a theory that this song is sideways or oblique political speech against the War on Drugs. The concept of the kangaroo court, the hypocrisy, and the marijuana references lead me to believe this. Anyone else? E. Sn0 =31337= 07:02, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

That ends up not mattering. Whether we agree or not, it's not something that is fact (i.e. stated by the band) and thusly cannot be put into the article. Dfsghjkgfhdg (talk) 19:18, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
