Convention Theme Identified

July 29, 2004

The Black Eyed Peas played the DNC last night, thrilling the unhip with their intriguing rapster beats. One song was especially rousing; a pulsing track featuring the line "Let's get started."

Not a bad theme for a political convention. But the original version, before the Peas altered it for Democratic consumption, is even better: Let's Get Retarded.
