One of the blogs favorite songs is Outkast's Bow tie. Mostly because of the crazy beats but also because of the catchy lyrics:
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie `round my neck
That's why they call me the gangsta mack
Apparently, GOP Rep. Neil Peterson loves that song too since he's always wearing Bow ties around the Capitol. Many of Peterson's colleagues were also playin' the gangsa mack today. Peterson said he brought in about two dozen bow ties for folks to wear.
Many Republicans from the corner of the House Chamber (known as the Dog Pound) wore the neckwear. Peterson made a crack that some in the Dog pound may be showing solidarity with someone in the dog house. Peterson lost the GOP endorsement but said he'll run in the primary.
