...really loved Bob Geldof's article about President George W. Bush's policies on Africa [March 3]. Geldof made clear his opinion of Bush, but in the course of the article he also paid homage to some good the President has done. I am a fan of the President (barely), and even I didn't know about the success in Africa. Too bad Bush doesn't have enough p.r. savvy to put a spotlight on this proud legacy.

...disheartening. Spitzer’s resignation yesterday after a burst of public outcry was the best and only thing he could do for the state of New York.

...an80s electro-funk phenomenon. A lot ofthe production on this album is a soupof keyboards and soul samples, syrupyR&B crooners, and cheesy synthesizergrooves—a collage of post-gangsta postcrunkelectro experimentation. The videofor “Sensual Seduction” takes itself onlyhalf-seriously; depending on your opinion,it’s either the dumbest move in theman’s career or a hilarious retro homageto the important figures of pre-hip-hop.The 21 tracks on “Ego Trippin’” are agenerous helping of Snoop, which is botha good and bad thing. There...
