The Witch Doctor
Well, The 0!’s song and dance still looks and sounds swell to the Mass MEdia Podpeople Hivemind, but the IOC is “a bunch of racists” and have given his song and dance the hook offstage. Looks like he now has to find other ways to slip his payback to the Daley machine and its cronies.
Oh, like this is all that surprising. When The 0! isn’t using TOTUS, his best sounds like
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla bing bang…
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla ,bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla bing bang
All sound and fury, signifying nothing. And that’s on one of his good days!
As Jerry Pournelle said just today,
“I am not impressed with the competence of this administration’s diplomacy.”
Hmm, seems like he’s not the only one, eh?
And evoking The Witch Doctor led to more memories in comments, so here are a couple:

Well, Perri, you are still just a pup. I suppose you also don’t recall the releases of “Telstar” (http://www.imeem.com/harrymerino/music/z4_nNbgg/the-tornados-telstar/), a HUGE hit for The Tornados, or “Beep Beep (Little Nash Rambler)” by The Kingston Trio (http://www.imeem.com/blastmedia/music/I2n3SrKq/kingston-trio-beep-beep-little-nash-rambler/), either, eh? (BTW, I drove a Rambler for five years or so. Was a decent lil car.)

“All sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
Who would have thought that a playwrite 400 years ago would pen the words that so accurately depict Teh Won?
And boy, does this old geezer remember when that “Witch Doctor” song came out. Damn, I’m getting old!
