Charles Pierce is so good that I would feel remiss in adding my own commentary to his smackdown of National Review's pathetic attempt to find 50 conservative rock songs. The first sentence says it all: "Oh, Lord, sometimes, you make the fish so big and the barrel so small."

""Consider, for example, the bowline that Miller makes of himself over “Sympathy For The Devil,” checking in at No. 3, and described as “The Screwtape Letters of rock,” possibly because it has the word “devil” in its title, which would make the Duke basketball team The Screwtape Letters of next year’s NCAA tournament. “The devil,” Miller says, “is a tempter who leans hard on moral relativism.” First of all, no kidding. """
AHH YES.... because remember kiddies, conservatives have a monopoly on morality......
