Politics Photo of the Day

Barack Obama and Drowning Pool (aka, the “Let The Bodies Hit The Floor” band).

Hey candidates, don’t underestimate the powerful nu metal political lobby.
Remember when John Kerry snubbed Korn? It totally cost him the election.

for some reason i thought drowning pool would be pro war republicans. maybe it's because of that scene in ferenheit 9/11 where the soldier says they listen to "let the bodies hit the floor" while driving the tanks.

Way to stay current, Barack. Who are you meeting with next, Jesus Jones?

Not necessarily anti-war. They're supporting a "take better care of the vets" bill. Specifically: the Lane Evans Mental Health Care reform bill. I assume that's where the photo op came from. (I only know this because a PR person has been bugging me about coming to their press conference about it...yes Drowning Pool held a press conference. I couldn't make it. Had a thing.)

Barack really blends in. This is like a Where's Waldo.
