Paul McCartney Rocks and, Like Most Artists, Has Terrible Political Judgement

Great Paul McCartney concert on Friday night at Yankee Stadium. It was, alas, the first and likely the only time I will have seen any remnant of The Beatles live in concert, and Sir Paul was fantastic and full of stamina. How can a guy that old rock for three hours? The only sour note was a ridiculous song/paean to Dear Leader complete with lightshow-generated visage of The Man Who Never Held a Real Job But Is Somehow Expected to Lead the Economic Recovery, and made worse by Sir Paul's intro commentary that this petulant child of a radical, America-hating, socialist is somehow "saving the nation from conflagration." Huh??????

Anyway, a small price to pay to see the genius at work. In fact this was probably better than a Beatles concert would have been because we got the Wings stuff thrown in.
