In a posting on the Bloodhound Gang's official Web site, the band expresses little concern for the missed irony: "As long as our troops aren't illegally downloading our songs, we could care less if we're killing machine bed music. We would rather the Bloodhound Gang be 'The Soundtrack to War' than Creed. Now that would be embarrassing. Our president is a clown, so Michael Moore invited the whole world to laugh at him. We're proud to be a part of that."

Though the band, known for songs like "I Wish I Was Queer So I Could Get Chicks" and "A Lap Dance Is So Much Better When the Stripper Is Crying," and the filmmaker take on slightly different subject matter, the Bloodhound Gang profess to have found a kindred spirit in Moore: "Michael Moore kicks ass. He's the master of delivering a compelling point in an entertaining manner. So, when he asked us to use 'Fire Water Burn' in Fahrenheit 9/11, we not only said 'fuck yeah,' but waived our normal fee. Anyone that pisses people off while making them laugh is OK in our book."
