Am I the only one who thinks the NSA needs a theme song?

The NSA has a public relations problem. Before it dips into black ops funds to pay for a wide-ranging PR campaign to improve its image, however, The Punditty Project thought it would do its civic duty and offer the obvious first step for the NSA to begin rebuilding its rapport with the American people.

The NSA needs a theme song, and Punditty’s “NSA Theme Song Poll” is just the place to get the ball rolling. Check out the 12 options offered by TPP at http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/14780729-nsa-needs-a-theme-song-and-you-can-help-choose-it

My personal choice has to be Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me." And yours?

...Benedict Arnold & The Traitors, from the CD Star Spangled Bummer, released in 2008 - before there was a President Obama.(www.benedictarnoldandthetraitors.com)

The first verse ends with the line "the NSA is eavesdropping."

It is, and has been for quite some time, Business As Usual.



Habeus Corpus got waterboarded.

Hush little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beast under your bed,
In your closet, in your head
