How can our politicians be so stupid? There have been at least two stories recently where a politician has gotten into trouble for something they said via the internet. I thought that these days everyone knew that anything on the internet, even emails never disappear forever. To be honest it all seems like something that would be more at home on fandom_wank, but these men are not stupid fangirls and ought to know better. The MP that posted his comment on facebook was just thoughtless and possibly hurtful, but the proposed smear campaign was downright malicious. I'm not hugely surprised by this, but really, is this how the leaders of our country feel it is appropriate to act?

*sigh* //political rant over ;)

I stole the music meme from bobbinrob  I skipped one song that came up because it had no lyrics, other than that they are as they came up, I think some are pretty easy, but if you get 20 I may love you forever.

Step 1: Put your MUSIC PLAYER on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both band and title.
Step 4: Tag 6 friends to do their own.. Take if you like

1. There she stood, in the street.
2. You sit there in your heartache,
3. They say it's a mans world, well that cannot be denied.
4. Well I heard there was a secret chord, Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
5. Oh the sword of Damocles is hanging over my head,
6. I've waited, but given the chance again,
7. I'd really love to be alone, without all the aching pain and the April showers.
8. Although my lover lives in a place that I can't live Come on Home - Franz Ferdinand
9. At the watering-holes of the well-to-do,
10. I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright,
11. I'm the son of rage and love,
12. You say yes, I say no, Hello, Goodbye - The Beatles
13. Sad girl, there's no need to feel sad girl,
14. Hey, I can't see why people look at me and only see the colour of my face,
15. It's a feeling I've had so many times before,
16. Drink down that gin and kerosene,
17. I've been spitting in the wind, I chance a foolish grin,
18. Your golden skies feed my role,
19. Tonight there's no denying, no there's no denying,
20. At the top of the stairs is a locked room, My secret chamber that no outsider views,
I'm not sure exactly what this says about my taste in music, but at least I wasn't horribly embarrassed by anything that came up :D

YAY, WELL DONE! All right!

I must admit I kind of giggled when Hallelujah came on 'cos everyone knows that right? The version I have is indeed Jeff Buckley's :) *smish*
