Putting Out Fire With Gasoline

As I learn more and more about the government's banking bailout plan, I keep thinking to myself that this is the Bush administration (for crying out loud!), and that we should not be trusting them to handle a crisis of this magnitude. These are, after all, the guys that see a fire and try to put it out with gasoline (Iraq) or simply freeze and don't do anything (Katrina). Don't you think?

But...totally unrelated...that thought put this classic David Bowie rocker in my head. From 1983's "Let's Dance" album, the track was produced by the legendary Nile Rodgers and features Rodgers and the late Stevie Ray Vaughn doing some superb guitar work. Your Song of the Day is...
