This exerpt from Al Gore's book The Assault on Reason is like a breath of fresh air. Now, if Gore could only figure out a way to say it in a three to five word sound-bite, he might get his message across. I started to write a song about the same themes but it felt too preachy and polarizing, it was called We Let The Jocks Take Over. Maybe I'll finish it one day. Probably not, there's too much television to watch.Anyway, I recommend taking ten minutes and reading the exerpt at this link, it's pretty hopeful: link
PS. The comic that I used as an image for this post was made in November 2004 right after George W. Bush mind-bogglingly remained the president.

You should listen to the song "Running the World" by Jarvis Cocker. You can hear it on his myspace page (www.myspace.com/jarvspace). Hey, it's okay to be preachy sometimes. There are some occassions where it's essential.
