Given the impending Minnesota caucus this Tuesday, there has been some discussion in The Subsidies camp as to which candidate Minnesota's Best New Cover Band** will officially endorse. Due to marked dissent amidst the group (specifically, Dave) and our collective calloused apathy towards the state of political circus the U.S. media has developed over the past 30 years, we, The Subsidies have decided to make a collective run for the Presidency in 2008. We're currently throwing around a few campaign slogans, which we believe will help differentiate us from our competition:
The Subsidies - a cover band for hope and CHANGE. (refusing to play "Freebird," "Mony Mony," and any tunes by Pantera since 2006!!)
The Subsidies - Experienced, proven, tested... for HIV.
The Subsidies - Combating "the evils of radical Islamic extremism" through song on a nightly basis.
The Subsidies - Sleeping with Bill Clinton, not because we have to, but because we WANT to."
The Subsidies - a cover band in favor of updating tried and tested lyrics to fit "God's" specifications.
The Subsidies - already more popular than Dennis Kucinich.
We'll work on committing to an official political stance, choosing a hip theme-song, and delegating Presidential leadership roles between the five of us in the coming weeks, but for now all you need to know is GET OUT TO THE POLLS AND VOTE TUESDAY! It's possible we may not actually be listed on the ballots yet (our people (Jeff) have yet to talk with their people), so be prepared to write us in. It's time for a love revolution, y'all.
Peace, hope, love, Prius.
