As you may have heard, there’s a bit of a scrapdown heating up between should-be President John Kerry, and our actual commander in chief, George W. Bush. The he-said he-said goes something like this: Bush et al equate voting for the Democrats next week with supporting terrorism. Kerry makes a statement implying that those who don’t do well in school get sent off to Iraq. GW calls Kerry’s comments “insulting,” demands an apology and claims our soldiers are “plenty smart.” Kerry labels those demanding an apology “assorted right-wing nut jobs.” Yeah, that pretty much brings us up to date.
So what do play while pondering this political smackdown? You know what? We aren’t all about the melodrama, we’re not about insulting the troops, or shaking our heads and asking where this John Kerry was when we needed him. We’re about the children. Even the less intellectually gifted kids. So we made a little playlist for them. Here goes:
“Stay in School” — Otis Redding
“White Punks on Dope” — The Tubes
“American Idiot” — Green Day
“Young, Dumb and Ugly” — Weird Al Yankovich
“(We Don’t Need No) Education” — Pink Floyd
