BrainStream: Eminem's Anger.....Powerful

[bkdelong]

Just ame back from one of our twice-weekly West Wing lunches at work where we previewed the new anti-Bush Eminem video for "Mosh". I was incredibly impressed with how intelligently anti-Bush it was as well as how powerful. I was actually moved and I'm not remotely a fan.

Instead of focusing on the usual "Bush is stupid", "Bush can't talk pretty", or "Bush is a former drunk and druggie" it focused on tax cuts hurting middle-class America and the war in Iraq. There was some conspiracy theorist notions but he portrayed them as such.

Go watch it....a lot....and spread the word.

I saw him perform it on SNL last week, and was surprised. Not a fan either, but it's awesome to see a rapper have that kind of an effect, especially on the eve of the election, on network TV.
