Prez a pirate?

Yarrrrr. Me thinks so.

Oh, sorry, not the type of pirate that travels the world attacking others and stealing their riches. Or is he?

Nevertheless, there is an interesting article that talks about President Bush’s iPod playlist and Boing Boing points out how he may be engaging in behavior deemed theft by the RIAA.

The president also has an eclectic mix of songs downloaded into his iPod from Mark McKinnon, a biking buddy and his chief media strategist in the 2004 campaign. Among them are “Circle Back” by John Hiatt, “(You’re So Square) Baby, I Don’t Care” by Joni Mitchell and “My Sharona,” the 1970s song by The Knack that Joe Levy, a deputy managing editor in charge of music coverage at Rolling Stone, cheerfully branded “suggestive if not outright filthy” in an interview last week.
