  • NOM picked a song that pretty much most of us liked, especially the hand-waving crowd. I would wager that a vast majority of the listeners have not analyzed the lyrics and an even vaster majority could not sing along with them. All they hear is "this land is my land," and the rest disappears.

• Vanity Fair Palin story is not nice
