friday random ten: “there’s nothing to fear” edition
19 Mar
Long week, though reasonably productive. Still, happy to be heading into the weekend.
Before I get to the tunes, a little something worth your time: A reasonably thorough but not overly long overview of the health care bill, that, with luck, is going to see a vote (and hopefully get passed) on Sunday afternoon. Not at all scary, and generally good for America. Why the hell anybody’s opposing this on any grounds other than “pressing need to be an obstructionist asshole” is beyond me. Take a minute today or tomorrow to call your congresscritter and tell them to support this.
Anyway – music:
- “Why Worry” – Dire Straits
- “War Machine” – AC/DC
- “Crossfire” – Kasey Chambers
- “Telephone” – Lady Gaga w/ Beyonce
- “Motherless Child” – The Wailin’ Jennys
- “Pull Shapes” – The Pipettes
- “Here Comes a Regular” – The Replacements
- “Walcott” – Vampire Weekend
- “Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts” – Arctic Monkeys
- “Vacation” – The Go-Gos
Update: okay – making this argument shows that the opposition clearly has nothing else to run with. I honestly kind of feel bad for them.
