Johnny Cash plus anything equals win but this music + photo essay takes the cake. The video is about the bailout, the pictures are of the panjandrums Fed Chair Ben Bernanke (guy with beard) and Treasury Poobah Henry Paulson (bald, no beard), and the music is Johnny Cash.

Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
As seen on the mises.org blog. Standard disclaimer: I don't link to them as much as I'd like to because their Ron Paulian to sane ratio is high and in a bad way.
NB, in case you weren't sure the "run on for a long time" and "God'll cut you down" is a perfect fit to the 20 year long Fed policy of printing money and allowing the bubble followed by the current crisis in which all that paper prosperity disappears and reality reasserts itself.
