...same ash bin as other discredited parts of George W. Bush's war on terrorism, thanks to skepticism in the U.S. courts about their fairness and Obama's campaign promises to do away with them. But on May 15, Obama revived the idea of commissions for an uncertain number of detainees at the controversial prison, pledging to help Congress refashion tribunals into a "fair, legitimate and effective" forum to try alleged terrorists...
This forgettable number lacks a center. We realize the scene is supposed to be a first-run, justifying the visual aimlessness, but the song’s emotional footing is uncertain as well.

The mysterious emotional turmoil and, let's face it, weirdness that...
...guys holding signs along busy streets. Coming together in Washington, Jones thought, might spark the same kind of fellowship. Young friends convinced him that Facebook could shorten the organizing time for a national march dramatically. The site played another role: young gays who had connected on Facebook even as uncertain high school students now wanted to meet face-to-face. The march would provide a way to do that - and see Lady Gaga at the same time...
