So with the courage of a clown, or a cur, or a kite jerkin tight at it's tether
It definitely could, actually, not that I know of any politicians' music tastes. Honestly politicians in most countries don't act like real people so they would probably have some PR rep do their music listings and it would just be dumb and fake and stupid.If a band has political beliefs at all I don't listen to them, haha. No, actually, the only band I listen to whose politics I am aware of is Radiohead, and their politics are something I don't have a problem with, though I don't understand Yorke's concern about the world's impending demise due to global warming -- should I be bothered about that?
EDIT: I bet it has.
Do a politician's tastes in music affect your opinion of him or her?

I remember in our '08 election the candidates were asked what music they had been listening to recently, and McCain said ABBA and Obama said Dylan, 'Maggie's Farm' in particular.
The first year that South Park was on, I had a friend who was an Evangelical Christian, but who laughed at South Park like he was going to pee his pants--especially the parts about Jesus (who was a character in the beginning). We used to watch it together sometimes, I think because he was embarrassed to watch it with his fundie friends, and because I was his token free-thinking Christian. I saw the first three or four seasons with him, and I've since seen some other years on Youtube (although they keep taking them off). I heard an NPR interview with Trey Parker, in which he said that he didn't like the show all that much for the first five years or so. From my admittedly limited experience, I couldn't disagree more. Early South Park is a cartoon. As far as I can tell, it eventually got to be more like a TV comedy, but with animated stars. Do you know about the lady who played (and basically invented) all the female characters, who killed herself during the 4th season? I think it was never really the same after that, although I am probably in the minority in thinking so. My favorite episode is Starvin' Marvin in Space, even though (I think) it was the first show after she died.
Do medium-sized breasts look better than boob jobs?

Yes.
Have you ever hurt yourself on purpose?
no complaints at all concerning medium sized breasts, or small ones for that matter either!
I haven't---not in the sort of cutting/biting/hitting oneself way I think you might be asking about.
who is your favorite literary couple?
EMMA AND MR KNIGHTLEY 4EVAH <3 <3 <3
What is your favorite work for solo piano?
My piano playing stinks, so Chopsticks would probably be my speed.
What kind of guitar do you play, if any?
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way

Steel string, badly.
What would the flag of your personal nation look like?
A Raven rampart on a field of crimson.
Same question

Pretty much like this t-shirt.
How often do you cook with rice?
lately, its been barely, but usually its a couple of times a week. I love brown rice and chili beans.
I read an enjoyable book recently about the MIT students who took las vegas (and other casinos) for many millions. the book is called bringing down the house. the movie version is called 21. I would recommend both.
the students didn't do anything illegal, but what they did was highly frowned upon by the powers that be. one of them was caught roughed up pretty badly, and the risk of that was always present.
if you had the mental capability they did---would you go to casinos and use it?
No, I'd go to Wall Street and make some real dough.
Should the Colorado movie theater shooter get not guilty by reason of insanity?
That sounds less ethical though
As for the shooter, he seems crazy from what I hear. I don't know exactly how the sentencing would change to reflect that, but a life sentence seems fair and reasonable.
Have you ever known someone who became schizophrenic?
No, I haven't. Me neither.
What is your favorite kind of flower?
