    Didn't you just know it? Former President Bill Clinton is an OKOM 
fan. When
he was in power, the USA prospered.

Hmmmmm. Wonder what kind of music George Bush likes? Country/Western 
Blues?

Next time vote for an OKOMer. :-) VBG.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
  Naw! rumor has it George Bush is heavy into "Praise and Worship" 
Contemporary Christian Music,
   and leaning hard to the right of Holy Hip Hop !   :)

There is also a rumor circulating that his favorite song is  "Precious 
Lord Take My Hand and Lead me thru this Land"
or was that Lead this Land thru Me ?

Little Sunday Humor folks, don't get riled up or get your toga in knot.


Cheers,

Rev. Tom Bob

Presidential Themes

So this distinguished man came into the store, walked about six feet, 
heard
the music, stopped in his tracks and, as Connie Fails recalls, asked, 
"What
is that?" The store happened to be the Clinton Museum Store, two blocks 
from
the William J. Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Ark., The
Associated Press reported. The distinguished man happened to be Bill
Clinton. And the music - jazz and gospel - playing on the demo CD just
happened to be a compilation of Mr. Clinton's favorites from the 
library's
music room. "He took the demo, and by the time he got to the golf 
course,
all the windows of the S.U.V. were down and he was blasting it," said 
Ms.
Fails, who operates the store. Soon, it seems, everyone will be able to
share the former president's music. After months of work to acquire
licensing rights, Skip Rutherford, president of the Clinton Presidential
Foundation, said mass production of the 11-track "Bill Clinton 
Collection:
Selections From the Clinton Music Room" has begun. Among other tracks, 
it
will feature "My One and Only Love" by John Coltrane, "My Funny 
Valentine"
by Miles Davis, "There Will Never Be Another You" by Art Tatum, 
"Summertime"
by Zoot Sims and "Take My Hand, Precious Lord" by Mahalia Jackson
