50. "Hail to the Thief" refers to * IMO.
The first song especially...the words go something like:

And 2 and 2 always makes up five
It's the Devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream and shout
It's too late now
Because YOU HAVE NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION!

To me, it is saying something about our Orwellian society, where up is down and war is peace now that * is in charge. And since the American people haven't been paying attention, the theif is in office stealing democracy.

But then again, OK Computer, which I LOVE, makes me think of traveling intergallactically (sp?), just so you know where I'm coming from:).
