• Pink? The Chicks? The Pack Drumline?

    The Pack Drumline (YouTube screencap).

    Given how heavily Democrats lean on celebrities to put a popular face on their increasingly communist platform, last night was a capital-D Dud. The singer Pink--as in pinko--was perhaps the most appropriate choice, but she's hardly anyone's idea of a dynamite closing act. Stevie Wonder, who headlined on Wednesday, is a much bigger star with broader appeal.

    With rumors of Taylor Swift or Beyonce for a finale, a collective sigh of disappointment surely swept through the United Center when B-list acts such as the [Dixie] Chicks took the stage. Perhaps it's appropriate to feature the Chicks, given their emblematic status as censored and wokeified celebs.

    In their heyday--the late nineties--the Dixie Chicks were a fun country/rock band with relatable lyrics and a cute look. But much like the Cleveland Indians, Land 'O Lakes butter, and the Washington Redskins, the trio gave in to the speech police and shortened their name to the Chicks. Which isn't exactly the most PC way to refer to women, come to think of it.

    At any rate, the group was lambasted for their pitchy rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. Almost certainly chosen to appeal to southern and/or conservative women, the Chicks really clucked it up.

    Finally, the Pack Drumline? Anyone?

    A percussion group from season 17 of America's Got Talent--they were eliminated in the semifinals--the drummers come with a heartwarming backstory. Plucked from the streets of Chicago, the at-risk youths are a good fit for the DNC message. Urban youths jumping around and banging on things seems like a good preview of the dystopia that would follow Kamala Harris' proposed tax schedule.
