Here is an exhilarating new video celebrating the accomplishments of the Joe Biden administration and the Democratic Party. It is definitely smile-worthy and worth sharing widely. We need to be upbeat and to spread the joy about the many accomplishments of this administration in just 18 months, all in the face of an opposition party that has gone 100% rogue.
The video is a clever updated take, created by video artist CHUNK, of the brilliant Weapon of Choice video by Fatboy Slim, directed by Spike Jonze, starring Christopher Walken, released in 2001.
Here is the digitally remastered version of the original Video of Weapon Of Choice by Fatboy Slim.
The video featured Christopher Walken dancing around a deserted lobby of the Marriott Hotel (now the L.A. Grand Hotel Downtown) in Los Angeles. Walken had trained as a dancer in musical theatre before his acting career. The Spike Jonze-directed video won multiple awards at the 2001 MTV music video awards and won the 2002 Grammy award for best music video. The track features vocals by the legendary Bootsy Collins.

Here are some interesting snippets from the lyrics — lots of cultural references in there, especially to the classic sci-fi novel "Dune".
You can blow with this or you can blow with that
You can blow with this or you can blow with that
Walk without rhythm, it won't attract the worm
Walk without rhythm and it won't attract the worm
Walk without rhythm and it won't attract the worm
If you walk without rhythm, you never learn, yeah
Don't be shocked by the tone of my voice
Check out my new weapon, weapon of choice
Don't be shocked now by the tone of my voice
Check out my new weapon, weapon of choice
Organically grown through the hemisphere I roam
To make love to the angels of light, yeah
And my girl, I guess you just don't understand
It's gone beyond bein' a man
As I drift off into the night, I'm in flight
She's a boy scout, no doubt
But I'm gonna hold my cool 'cause the music rules, yeah
So groove on, check it out
Halfway between the gutter and the stars, yeah
Halfway between the gutter and the stars, yeah
You can blow with this or you can blow with that
You can blow with this or you can blow with that
Epilogue
Biden has been more vocal on social media lately, let’s give him a hand by amplifying his message.
Let’s celebrate our accomplishments and let’s spread the truth. Because we very well know that the right-wing noise machine will be in overdrive 24x7, spreading lies and disinformation and hoodwinking people into voting for the fascists running for Congress this November (like they did with the ACA 12 years ago).
This time we have to win. Let’s keep reminding voters that there is lot that remains to be done for humanity and only Democrats can get it done.
Happy Friday.
