Slog - Comments on Music for Obama http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/02/music_for_obama_3 There seems to be some sort of surge in music-making for Obama lately. The Grateful Dead are reuniting to play a get-out-the-vote rally for him in San Francisco. In Seattle, a bunch of musicians just recorded this... uh... funk for Obama: And now everyone's sending around this link to an Obama anthem produced by a member of the Black Eyed Peas. Here's the YouTube version:...

Couldn't they just support Nader like the dirty hippies they are?

I sure HOPE we can.

Everyone get out an caucus next Saturday at 1pm...

Why has Slog ignored this news - Sarkozy marries supermodel --

From TPM:

"Bruni, 40, has been portrayed as a man-eater in the press and has previously been linked with rock stars Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton, as well as U.S. businessman Donald Trump and French former Socialist Prime Minister Laurent Fabius.

.... "I'm monogamous from time to time, but I prefer polygamy and polyandry," she told the Figaro Madame magazine a year ago."

Such a powerful tool. And I'm voting for Scarlett Johanson too.
