^ That was great.
I love this song, lol:
This video is worth it for the last bit alone:
I love this guy's videos. Click to 1:13 to see an awesome contrast of old school vs. new school rapping:
He does tons of awesome challenges. One involved a sky-diving rap:

As far as I know, the context here is basically "here's some time to say what you like". This is not his first or last time acting like this, either. He refers to himself as Basil Marceaux.com. Here's a retelling of some of his other exploits: A Fond Adieu to Tennessee’s Basil Marceaux.com - TIME NewsFeed
I don't know that it's a lack of preparedness so much as a lack of competence. I couldn't find TN's candidacy requirements, but I imagine you're probably right. He probably managed to strike a chord with certain people. Especially military, given his background. But lest ye think it's just this speaking session, I also present his website: http://politics.freesitenow.com/basilmarceauxforgovernor/
Interestingly, and I'm not just trying to be contrary, I don't think I'm personally familiar with this desire for politicians to be real. In fact, most people I know wouldn't want someone in charge who didn't act like someone in charge. The demand I've overwhelmingly seen for politicians is for honesty.
I know we all flub speeches sometimes, but there's a difference between going off on some tool you should've used versus saying you're going to make electrons stationary and protons mobile in electric wires because that's the way it should be.
They are.
Fuck, man. Fuck. This is intense. I love it, though, it's just an amazing piece of work both musically and visually.
Yes. I was brought up to think that Eminem was simply a worthless shock-value rapper, but the more I've listened to his stuff, the more I've actually come to respect him as an artist. He deals with shit that I don't, and brings me places I wouldn't otherwise.
This is a song about an abusive relationship. I have never been in one, but I seriously feel like I understand just a little bit better because of this song/video. Same thing with "When I'm Gone."
Seriously. I don't care how this sounds anymore. I'm ready to admit it. I actually really, really, really like Eminem.

On top of the song/video content, it's being performed by two people with incredibly violent, out-of-control relationships.
Also, the first video/single he released from the newest album is pretty awesome, too.

Eminem is an effing fantastic mc. He is not only one of the most skilled lyricists in the hiphop game, but his ability to tell a story, to explore those issues important to him, and to create characters and riff on themes throughout multiple albums is impressive. Even before he became fully formed as the hiphop juggernaut he is today, his skills on the mic were more than capable, as was evident from his Infinite album on which he was still trying to find his unique voice.
Apart from his trademark raw emotion and awesome lyricism, my favorite part of that song is the bit in which he says:
Let's be honest, that last Relapse CD was 'ehhh'
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
I cannot think of many other rappers who would make similar concessions about their less-than-stellar efforts.

Just got around to watching James Rolfe's fantastic interview with Tom Savini. Much better than his last one!

Yessir. Ray Bradbury is one of the 20th century's greatest authors period. No need to qualify with "sci-fi". Dandelion Wine isn't sci-fi, and it's one of the most poignant novels I've ever read. Hell, I'd blow Ray Bradbury. And oh yeah, did he deserve that Emmy for Halloween Tree. It really is such a dark and delicious movie. It's too bad it hasn't been released on DVD (last time I checked).

I stand corrected. Musicals can have balls made of steel.
