[lbo-talk] BHO's latest endorsement: Kim Gordon

[Doug Henwood]

[this one breaks my heart - I've had a crush on KG for more than 20  
years! "more realistic"? "straight talker"?? "I really like his wife"]

SHE USED TO BE COOL
Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon Joins Obama Youth

But what do noise/punk/grunge pioneers Sonic Youth think of the 2008  
Democratic race? Kim Gordon is “inspired” by Barack Obama, that’s  
what! She will support him, she tells Wonkette’s Liz Glover … even  
though Gordon admits Obama and Hillary are basically the same, as far  
as politics. This is what passes for “Fashion Week” these days. And  
here’s another funny thing: If Barry Obama becomes president, we’ll  
have a president eight years younger than Sonic Youth’s bassist.  
Think about it.
