WHY CAN’T BLEEDING HEARTS TRICKLE DOWN?

February 3, 2006 by Tim Riley

LOBBYIST REFORMATION


John Ashcroft
Has a Come to Jesus Moment



WORLD ON A STRING



DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW


When I was a distracted campus layabout, we had more creative ideas than this, which has faded into the collective unconscious ether like that magic marker CD trick. Some of these were over-deliberate (you know how kids get). Others were more poetic, nay, pretentious — rubbing opposites together for maximum frisson. Still, as a pomo idea, it’s hard to beat. All submissions become the property of blog riley:

GOING MY WAY > Stooges RAW POWER

IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT > Richard and Linda Thompson SHOOT OUT THE LIGHTS
