that song thing again

blackletter has given me K. Let's see what I can do with this.

How this thing works:
1. If you'd like to play along, reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. You then list at least five songs that start with that letter.
3. Then, as I'm doing here, you'll post the list to your journal with the instructions.

I'm not sure whether Godwin's Law applies here

From this article at CNN:

The government is offering 300 euros ($384) to each Roma adult and 100 euros ($128) to each Roma child who accepts the offer for a "voluntary return."

and

"I am worried about the risks of populism and xenophobic reactions in a context of economic crisis," Baconschi said.

At best, this is ridiculous. At worst, all I can think is that one should be grateful that they're not being "voluntarily" moved into ghettos.

Edit to add this article from the Telegraph, which includes more information and hints that Sarkozy himself is making references to "rafles."
