Condoleeza Rocks?

I guess it's only fair, seeing as how I know of at least three different songs in the last couple of years where she gets mentioned, that U.S. Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice gives Bono her top ten in today's Independent, for which the U2 frontman played guest editor.

I love when people of a certain age hold up some classic rock band as evidence that they're still kind of cool, as Rice does with Cream. It's a hard line to walk. I think David Souter did it better when he made reference to Modest Mouse.

And I actually like Kool & The Gang, but I don't know about "Celebration" being "just a great song."
