Here's an interesting, yet flawed connection between art and politics:
Roger Waters performed at the Coachella Music Festival over the weekend. Against the wishes of local officials and without the consent of the presidential candidate himself, Waters commissioned a plane to drop tiny fliers on the crowd in support of Barack Obama. Unfortunately, most of the confetti ended up on neighboring lawns in Indio and La Quinta, which drew the ire of residents who were forced to clean it up.
"They're all over the place. It's littering. I've got all my homeowners calling me and complaining," said Bill Hays of the Desert Shores RV Resort to the Desert Sun. "If I was going to vote for Obama, I wouldn't this morning if this is how he runs his campaign."
Well, that doesn't help anyone...except for maybe John McCain.

And let it be known that Obama's campaign had nothing to do with this PR stunt. With friends like Jeremiah and Rogers, who needs enemies? It's really horrendous for Obama.
