Pros/cons: The flat buzz of the EAS signal is representative of Cheney's public profile -- plain yet foreboding, simple yet terrifying. But he can do better.
Suggested replacement: John Williams's "The Imperial March," from Star Wars
Sample lyrics: "Dahhn, dahhn, dahhn, dahn-da-da, dahn-da-da / Dahhn, dahhn, dahhn, dahn-da-da, dahn-da-da."
Alternate: R.E.M., "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)"
Sample lyrics: "A tournament, tournament, a tournament of lies."
Politician:Arnold Schwarzenegger
Current songs: U2, "Beautiful Day"; Twisted Sister, "We're Not Gonna Take It"
Pros/cons: For better or worse, Arnold's not quite as demonic as his above-mentioned Republican peers -- he can smile, crack jokes and even make fun of himself. But since we all know that Arnold is the devil incarnate, a true Manchurian Candidateplotting his slow ascent to the highest office in the land where he will engineer our ultimate enslavement by his secretive partners, the International Federation of BodyBuilders (hel-lo -- aliens!), it's my thinking that he should start dropping a few subtle, subversive hints.
Suggested replacement: Cannibal Corpse, "I Will Kill You"
Sample lyrics: "Bleed for my pain / Revenge on treacherous snakes / They will pay / Slicing the flesh / Sculptured wounds my catharsis."
Alternate: R.E.M., "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)"
Sample lyrics: "It's the end of the world as we know it / It's the end of the world as we know it / It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine."
