I won't even ask about art or literature. I know that embarrassing answer.

Clinton, obviously, got great joy from music. Could Bu$h be so psychopathic that he takes no joy from music? Music of any kind?

4. MUZAK piped into AF-1
Or maybe Mantovani Hits from the '60s (the Time-Life Classic series).

14. Houston connection. ZZTop.
Well, damn! Along with flying airplanes, Bu$h and I might have something in common. I wonder if Bu$h liked Leo's Mexican Restaurant. That was one of Elvis's and ZZ Tops' favorite dives in the Alabama Theater area.

15. No, it has lyrics!
And here they are:

Wake up little Susie, Wake up
Wake up little Susie, Wake up

We've both been sound asleep
Wake up little Suzie and weep
The movie's over it's four o'clock
and we're in troube deep

Wakeup a little Susie
Wakeup a little Susie

Well what are we going to tell your mama?
What are they going to tell your pa?
What are they going to tell our friends when they say
Oh-la-la!

Wake up a little Susie
Wake up a little Susie

Well, I told your mama that we'd be in by ten
Well, Susie baby looks like we goofed again
Wake up a little Susie
Wake up a little Susie
We gotta go home

Wake up little Susie, Wake up!
Wake up little Susie, Wake up!
The movie wasn't so hot
It didn't have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked,
our reputation is shot

Wake up a little Susie
Wake up a little Susie

Well, what are we going to tell your mama?
What are they going to tell your pa?
What are they going to tell our friends when they say
Oh-la-la!

Wake up a little Susie
Wake up a little Susie
Wake up a little Susie

12. John Kerry
of course played electric bass in his high school band. In recent years, he's taught himself to play classical guitar. George Bush does not play classical guitar.

23. Yes.
And, Junior firmly believes he fulfilled his military service, too. But, now he gets to play "Commander-in-Chief".

19. ABSOLUTELY NOT!!
That's the one place we CAN'T compare Idiot Bubbleheaded bobble boy to Hitler.

hitler actually had a very fine appreciation for music - and good music, not just shit music - and art. Yeah, he later turned it into propaganda and went all evil with it, but he knew good music when he heard it.

26. Not really
Hitler liked Wagner, Schubert and Beethoven. Today that mind sound like highbrow fare, but it really wasn't anything unusual for a German nationalist of his day. He certainly showed no serious musical appreciation, he just liked a catchy tune.

20. He likes popular music - patriotic country western, etc.
But does he have interest in anything intellecually stimulating or challenging or that might require him to listen for more than 4 minutes? No, I'm sure he doesn't.

I don't think we have to worry about the Kronos Quartet wearing themselves out playing sessions at the White House.

28. he has claimed that his favorite song is "Wake Up Little Susie"
http://www.guardian.co.uk/US_election_race/Story/0,2763,372384,00.html
"when asked
his favourite song by Oprah, he replied
'Wake Up Little Susie by Buddy Holly'.

Only this time, unlike over the Grecians,
he was at least able to correct himself. It
was The Everly Brothers. "

Allegedly he listened to soul music in college. (An African-American friend, upon hearing this, told me, "no way -- he hasn't got the receptors")
http://www.dke.org/bushyaletimes.html

At Andover "He was the head football cheerleader his senior year, a member of his class rock-and-roll band, the
Torqueys – not singing or playing an instrument but clapping"
