In their latest issue, the party animals at The National Review have listed the "top 50 conservative rock songs of all time." Imagine, for years we've thought it was about sex, drugs and rock and roll when all along we've missed the hidden messages about conservatism, abstinence and good old-fashioned Confederate values. It should come as no surprise that "Won't Get Fooled Again," The Review's #1 pick because of its pronouncement to "swear off naive idealism once and for all," would contain the line: "Meet the new boss/Same as the old boss." Who knew The Who would someday craft George Bush's foreign policy?

The Conservative Top 10:

1. Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who
2. Taxman - The Beatles
3. Sympathy For The Devil - The Rolling Stones
4. Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
5. Wouldn't It Be Nice - The Beach Boys ("pro abstinence and pro-marriage")
6. Gloria - U2
7. Revolution - The Beatles
8. Bodies - The Sex Pistols ("a searing anti-abortion anthem")
9. Don't Tread On Me - Metallica
10. 20th Century Man - The Kinks

While all lists have their own intrinsic entertainment value, this one gets an added boost from the logic behind each suggestion. Interesting to note that conservative poster boy and radio host Ted Nugent's "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang" is conspicuously absent from the list.
