...What makes the album at all platable to someone who was at least entertained by the movie is the last two tracks, composed of the hilarious monologue by Christian Bale (the movie's star) about Huey Lewis and the News before he kills a character, followed by that group's very own "Hip To Be Square." Sadly, that was the only song to make it into the soundtrack amongst the musical references in Bale's memorable monologues in the film about major '80s stars, such as Phil Collins and Whitney Houston, and unfortunately it's been deleted from the newer...
...with a dead girl or a live boy." Edwards was a charmer, a scamp, a honey-tongued governor perfectly matched to his state who apparently had more bag men than press secretaries, and was loved for that, in the great and unique local tradition of Earl and Huey Long. Return me to office, he once implored voters, "or there won't be anything left to steal." They...

Last week a posse aided by yapping beagles and bloodhounds tracked him down in Lowndes County, Ala., where, 35 years ago, he had helped set up an independent black political organization that chose a black panther as its symbol.

It seemed like something the rabble...
...students who burned the Bank of America may have done more toward saving the environment than all the teach-ins put together." And the guy who continued to raise thousands of dollars for the Black Panther Party for years after everybody else had figured out that its leader Huey P. Newton was no revolutionary but a dangerous thug. During the 1980s Horowitz began to embrace the Ridiculous Right as passionately as he had once clung to the Lunatic Left. He founded the Center for the Study of Popular Culture, based in Los Angeles, whose purpose is to make inroads...
