Matt, that’s an interesting article at the NY Times. I feel very strongly about this topic, but will resist the temptation to pontificate about it here, since this is Zach’s blog. I would be interested in hearing his take on it, though.
I can’t resist, however, mentioning the most vulgar part of the video: the advert incorporating the Beatles’ “All You Need Is Love” into a Credit Card promotion. I’m sure this is exactly what they had in mind for the song.

American Idiots.

Apparently, there is nothing important going on in the world.

Hey Zach, did you see this http://video.on.nytimes.com/ ?
I can’t figure out how to link directly to the video, but it’s called “Politics & the Pulpit.” Sounds like great fodder for a Finding Rhythm post.

My guess, Zach, is that you and I are on the same page on this one, or at least lean in the same direction.

(think about it.)
or
“Bush selects future Iraqi government”
