a headline which might be appreciated by a well known rock'n roll singer

headline slamming through
sort of -- it's hardly surprsing though, as it was Bush snr who first coined the phrase, roundly satirised by Von (and many others). Bush the First was accused of being short-termist and rather vaguely averred that he had the 'vision thing'.
in the song, there's also somethign about 'one million points of light' which was also a phrase Bush used in talking up america.
how prescient it all seems, etc, etc.
I doubt if even von had an inkling of the vile dynasty to follow though.

oh, well, the song is all about that election campaign ('take back what I paid for another motherfucker in a motorcade' etc).
there was a sisters lyrics analysis site that used to be good for this sort of thing. Here's the Vision Thing entry:

They did a few of the songs and then went strangely quiet and didn't produce anything ever again... hmm. Now what/who does that remind me of?

Now that's planning, huh? Von's last album concerned a Mr George Bush and the New World Order, the 'What we say goes' mentality, the short-termism, etc.
See? Von had it all planned out. He doesn't have to release a new album now--why repeat himself?
Actually, anyone notice that numerous industrial-type groups are all united in their hatred of Bush, and they make a now-tired point of repeating this in their albums:
Suicide Commando - Axis of Evil (see some of those song titles)
KMFDM - WWIII (yeah, see some of those titles, too)
Skinny Puppy - The Greater Wrong of the Right (yeah, Bush is the subject here as well)
Ministry - Houses of the Mole (worked 'W' into every single song title)
FLA - Civilization (suggesting that perhaps ours is coming to a close)
Something tells me that The SoM have played their last shows in the USA (how many years ago?)
