Bad Religion, from the Empire Strikes First (Amazon), Los Angeles is Burning (lyrics):

Two of Philadelphia's token wingnuts, Officer Wyatt Earp and Medic TrekMedic251 link to the following "Latino-made" spoof of "300".  The irony of comparing Mexicans to an invading hoard is lost on these two, but the parody's creators clearly "got it".

Full disclosure:  I haven't watched the Sopranos in three-years, but I can't help being intrigued by the buzz and outrage.

As you undoubtedly know, the Sopranos has ended.  And many who counted the show among their favorites are outraged at the ending.

But producer David Chase (IMDB) is no fool… 

Via All Spin Zone (with lyrics). 

Bad Religion's "Dreams of Unity" from the live album "Tested" (Amazon), from 1997, which I didn't know existed until 5-minutes ago…

No matter how hard you try, no matter how sincere your intentions, sometimes you just have to admit that you may not be able to change people, and you may not be able to make things better… 

Lyrics via Songmeanings.net:

I had a dream of unity
where we would walk side by side
but today I see that it's only me
just tryin' to get by
sometimes we strive undeterred
to walk as one toward our goals
but as people stray toward more selfish ways
we see we have no control
I had a dream of unity
where we would walk side by side
but today I see that it's only me
just tryin' to get by
just tryin' to get by

Not quite sure what this Web 2.0 thing is?  This 5-minute video on YouTube (via BoingBoing) lays it out for you.

"Don't Drag Me Down", by Social Distortion from the album "White Light, White Heat".  Lyrics from SongMeanings. 

Ignorance like a gun in hand
reach out to the promised land
Your history books are full of lies,
media -blitz gonna dry your eyes
You're eighteen wanna be a man
Your granddaddy's in the Ku Klux Klan
Taking two steps forward
and four steps back
Gonna go to the White House
and paint it black

Lyrics: 

now I believe in unity, and I am willing to compromise,
but I'm not gonna lie or sell my soul

From the "still playing music era of MTV", aka 120 Minutes. 

Lyrics.  Just to put you in the proper mindset for the dog-and-pony show by the Prez this evening.  From Bad Religion's album, The Empire Strikes First.

Radicalized on the internets, just like me. 

I found it ironic that all three (Fox Sunday) animated primetime sitcoms took on politically charged subjects, especially as they are broadcast on the FOX Network…
