The New York Times Even Hates Bush's iPod

This tidbit, from a New York Times "news" story on the President's iPod:

Nonetheless, Mr. McKinnon said that Mr. Bush had not gone so far as to include on his playlist "Fortunate Son," the angry anti-Vietnam war song about who has to go to war that Mr. Fogerty sang when he was with Creedence Clearwater Revival. ("I ain't no senator's son ... Some folks are born silver spoon in hand.") As the son of a two-term congressman and a United States Senate candidate, Mr. Bush won a coveted spot with the Texas Air National Guard to avoid combat in Vietnam.

Of course, the Times failes to note that Mr. Bush joined a unit which rotated to Vietnam, and specifically requested to go, a request nixed by the operational reality that his particular aircraft was obsolete and the war was winding down.

No word on Vietnam draft-dodger Bill Clinton's iPod selection, thought to contain old chestnuts like "Your Cheatin' Heart" and "Would I Lie To You?"

Not that The Times is biased or anything.
