Crane Wife 3 (my favorite) is surprisingly easy on guitar.

It's not your time. It's your time to shut up and move out of the way. We're not putting up with whiny bullshiat cynicism anymore.

I saw them at the H'wood Bowl, with the LA Philharmonic. It was a fun show, but, man, does it look like they assembled that band from the Comp Lit faculty at Swarthmore.

Obama is already President. November 5th will just be a formality.

reminded me of

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'.
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.

they do, but you still insist on speaking for them anyways.

Both Reagan and Kennedy had to be inaugurated before the Germans would pay them any attention.

I hope someone was passing out naturalization forms.

The German people do like a good speaker. It must be in their DNA.

Oh yeah, I totally agree with that. I saw them at Koko in London just before CW came out. Colin Meloy is dreamy though.

How about your words Gary? Will you speak for you?

Who are you voting for Gary?

David Hassellhoff must have endorsed him.

Man, this is going to be easy McCain

I'd be more impressed if Germans got to vote for the U.S. President.

McCain is going down. Obama is on a world tour, and McCain is in Pennsylvania.

It it start like this:

And here I dreamt I was a soldier
And I marched the streets of Birkenau
And I recall in spring
The perfume that the air would bring

Considering most germans hate America, it's no wonder they support Obama.

Ben Stein's gonna shiat when he hears about this.

Think just a litttttle outside your own little world, Rev. Many of us care what our world image is, and in Europe, it ain't good. Anywhere else for that matter, really.

As a fan of the "You know who else..." meme, I just have to offer kudos, sir. Well played.

Have the haters really thought out this strategy of attacking him on how much people like him?

"People want him to be president?! This proves he's unelectable!"

Wasn't it the McCain camp who said he needed to bolster his international cred?

I don't get how he can be doing what they said he needs to do, then bash him for doing it.
