While You Make Pretty Speaches

A Radiohead fan has made a short video of Katrina footage and poignant stills in vibrant but sedated protest to The Administration's handling, using the band's song "Like Spinning Plates," audio from mayor Nagin, Kanye, and the horrible video we've all watched time and time again.

If it weren't poignant, we wouldn't post it.

The lyrics to Radiohead's "Like Spinning Plates:"

While you make pretty speeches
I'm being cut to shreds
You feed me to the lions
A delicate balance

And this just feels like spinning plates
I'm living in cloud cuckoo land
And this just feels like spinning plates
Our bodies floating down the muddy river
..... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Terrific song that's eerily well-applied in this instance. Someone should really make a political ad out of this...What the hell else has MoveOn.org done for me lately?
