Crappy Days Are Here Again

Much has been made over the musical intros and outros at the Democratic National Convention. In the spirit of bipartisanship, and since Ed Gillespie and Ken Mehlman know more about hit jobs than hit records, Roger Ailes is holding a contest to help the G.O.P. select a soundtrack for its late August convention.

Nominate an actual song for a particular speaker or for the entire convention.

Prizes of some sort (most likely intangible -- virture is its own reward) may or may not be awarded.

To kick things off, here's an excerpt from my recommendation (not eligible for the competition):

Just love those laser guided bombs
They're really great for righting wrongs
You hit the target and win the game from bars
three thousand miles away
three thousand miles away
We play the game with the bravery of being out of range
We zap and maim with the bravery of being out of range....
