Inside McCain's iPod



Now that we've peeked at Obama's iPod, how about McCain's? Here's an imagined playlist for those long and tedious Baghdad airport landing spirals:

"I've Got a Gal in Kalamazoo" -- Glenn Miller Orchestra

"Over There" -- George M. Cohan

"A Whiter Shade of Pale" -- Willie Nelson

"I Tied an Onion to my Belt, Which Was the Style at the Time" -- The
Grampa Simpson Quartet

"Danger Zone (Top Gun theme)" -- Kenny Loggins

"Welcome to the Occupation" -- R.E.M.

"I'm not Angry" -- Elvis Costello

"Barbara Ann" -- The Beach Boys (Tehran mix)

"I'm Going to Crush Obama" -- McCain Girl (unreleased)

"Flight of the Valkyries" -- Richard Wagner

P.S. A DailyKos diarist has a funny, old-timey take on this theme. This is funny, too.

In light of today's revelation of the contents of Barack Obama's iPod by Rolling Stone (h/t to icebergslim), the McCain campaign has released photos of the Arizona Senator's personal listening device:

Also included in the press release is a short excerpt of the GOP candidate's current playlist favorites:

Woodchopper's Hornpipe
The True And Trembling Brakeman
That Crazy War (of 1812)
Globe Trotting Nelly Bly
Adam In The Garden Pinnin' Leaves
Roll The Cotton Down
Granny Does Your Dog Bite
Hop Up, My Ladies
Cluck Old Hen
Boys All My Money's Gone
Gonna Keep My Skillet Greasy

and an ode to his lovely wife Cindy:
Liberty Off The Corn Liquor Still

1. He's not cool enough to be into early-R.E.M. He probably likes their pussy shit like Around the Sun.

That image is quite a pisser.

3. Now you can think of McSame every time you hear it! nt

4. Oh great!!!!

The lyrics:

I had an old hen she had a wooden leg
Best old hen that never laid an egg
Laid more eggs than any hen around the barn
Another dirink of whiskey wouldn’t do me any harm

CHORUS:
Cluck old hen cluck and sing
Ain’t seen an egg since way last Spring
Cluck old hen cluck and squall,
Ain’t laid an egg since way last fall

My old hen’s a good old hen
She lays eggs for the railroad men
Sometimes one sometimes two
Sometimes enough for the whole damn crew

CHORUS

Cluck old hen, cluck in the lot
Next time you cackle you’ll cackle in the pot

************************

It could be McCain's theme song!!!

I'm in my 30s and I love Glenn Miller. :D
