Just in case any of y’all were planning not to vote this time…

This is what happened last time:

Bush believes in the free press, like kids believe in Santa.

(from the AP)
CAMBRIDGE, Md. (AP) — The eavesdropping tables were turned on President Bush on Friday. The president apparently believed he was speaking privately when he talked about listening in without a warrant on domestic communications with suspected al-Qaida terrorists overseas. But reporters were the ones doing the listening in this time.
The incident happened at [...]

Someone tell it like it is.

New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin gives an amazing interview to WWL about what’s really happening in his city, and the runaround he’s getting from both state and federal authorities, way up to the presidential level.
Such honesty in politics only comes from frustration and desperation at a level that can only come from a government that [...]

Back to the lecture at hand

I will be returning to my top 10 reviews (yes yes I know I missed the deadline, but I just love the whooshing noise they make) but it occurs to me that I haven’t posted one of my link-laden promotional blog entries in a bit, so…on with the show.
A quick political note, as we get [...]

I Don’t wanna Talk About it (not the Wilson Phillips version)

Hello and welcome, Bolt users!
Four things to say about this week: [IQ] [Education] [Shirt]. This all makes me miss our dear departed brother Bill Hicks even more. But to keep me sated, I found this mega-archive of unreleased BH stuff. You can really just replace one Bush with another in your [...]

I’m so sorry! My blog started playing the WRONG SONG!

Poor lil’ Not-Jessica Simpson. Now the whole world will know that the one thing her and her sis have in common is neither of them can sing. Maybe she should start rappin instead. She can call herself Lil’ Not-Jessica and do a duet with this guy.
In other hack music news, you need [...]

Hyphens? We don need no steenkin hyphens!

Woo. A whole bunch of randomness today.
First off, although I’m not in love with John Kerry, Duhbya has to be the worst public speaker in history. My grandma coulda done better, and she’s dead. Hey George, maybe you should look words like ’sovereignty’ up before using them, in case some reporter catches [...]

Blog. Blog. Let It All Out.

- In “everything old is new” music news, the 80s are back! (’Had they ever really gone away?” i hear all you scene kids respond with…yes…yes they had). Hip-O/Uni are finally releasing the “new” album Everybody Loves A Happy Ending by Tears for Fears, which had been idling in record label merger hell since [...]

Political Response

People who vote without educating themselves on the candidates are scary, no matter who they are blindly voting for… but between Bush’s continued non-support of rebuilding new york, his abysmal education policies that ‘leave behind’ all but the wealthiest districts, and force teachers to educate toward aptitude tests dictated by the state rather than truly [...]

Does George W have to choke a bitch?

In case you didn’t already know, George Dubya Don’t Play. (originally via in8.com which appears to no longer exist.)
If that doesn’t get your goat (whatever that means), you can watch the new mediocre Prodigy video, a part of the new mediocre Prodigy record, other than that track that rips “Thriller”
