The Bold Headed Broadcast would like to thank Sen. Ted Stevens for providing the online world with such an amazing sound bite this week. It’s a skillful fusion of political doublespeak and perplexing ignorance on how the Internet works. In his honor, we’ve remixed the most amusing gems from his illuminating perspective of the Internet and remixed it into a techno track for the world to enjoy.
