Josh recently commented on the bangin-ness of Dennis Kucinich's wife, whom we must understand probably has been set up with Dennis by the movement.

But he's not the only politician with a bangin wife. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the wives of the right wing.

Fred Thompson's wife:

Because this is amazing.

This is an amazing story about Phil Spector's descent into madness. By way of hair analysis. Actually, I didn't bother reading the article - I just enjoyed watching the photo gallery that gives old Phil the Michael Jackson's face treatment.

This Monday begins the second week of the trial, and while it has not been the media circus that was the OJ trial, it's introducing a whole new generation to the man's unparalleled genius, which is just what the internet was made for. Below is a video of Joan Baez singing "You've Lost the Loving Feeling" with Spector on piano. I have never, ever been a fan of Baez, and she does to this song what George W. Bush has been doing the country for the last eight years. But there are two brilliant moments: in the beginning, when Phil starts smashing the piano, and towards the end when you see this guy in the percussion section going ape-shit with the cymbals.

I guess on some level going ape-shit with the cymbals is what the "wall of sound" is all about.

This lazily thrown together and poorly ordered mix is in honor of the diligent “Why Not CMS” comment spammer that we get on this site every once in a while.

I needed to purge some music I’ve been sitting on for much too long before I drop a dope mix I’ve been working on (see what I did there? Create some early hype).

Complete with a track stolen by Hot Chip’s DJ Kicks before I could get it up (Positive K), a chick who never seems to let me down (Amerie), one of the best remixes so far this year (Jr. Boyz/Hot Chip), and just one more reason to love Erlend Øye.

Come Get Some HERE

12. Twista: “The Come Up” (The Come UP BW Bussin No Discussin)

Inspired by the song's inclusion on Hot Chip's bangin' DJ Kicks.

On his web site, Congressman Vito Fossella (R-NY - Staten Island, to be specific) encourages users to visit Thomas (a Library of Congress web site with more records than you'd ever want to see) to see how he has voted.

This is of course, a good idea. People should know what their Congressman is up to. However, if you're a total shmuck (like Fossella), you may want to think twice. Fossella tells readers that the link to Thomas' Roll Call votes page will "take you to a table of votes similar to the one seen here:"

Great work, Vito. Smash-up job. Boise State! Florida! Observing MLK day! Tackling the controversial issues one at a time.

I'm almost more offended that he's stupid enough to put up this as an example of his voting than I am about his continuing efforts to stooge for the Administration and big business.
