The Lyrics

I'm not a republican btw and certainly i'm not a Dubya fan, as my Bush parodies will attest http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/thebradybunchtvshow0.shtml
It's time for propoganda
it's time to criticize
It's time for Democratic voters to prioritize
It's time for Dean to stand out
It's time for Clarke to gain
It's time for Mister Sharpton to admit that he's a pain

John Kerry's *%#*ing awful, Dick Gephardt's not my bet
At least nobody claimed to Invent the Internet

It's time to bash the right wing..(Why don't we bash the right wing?)

Joe Lieberman completes what is the
most dysfunctional,
most incapable,
least electable,
Disaffectable
Democratic presidential race

Gonzo for President!>BR>(And I guess Fuzzy Bear could handle fuzzy math better than most politicians, left or right) :-)

I think the Electric Mayhem Band should come out with a version of this song. Definite chart-topper, if ya ask me.

Animal for Defense Secretary, and Miss Piggie (who likes to refer to herself as "moi") for Ambassador to France. Thanks, Laurence, I needed a dose of the Muppet Show.

Sweeeeeet. Please send this to MuppetCentral Forum, they'll love it! d;:^)

Maybe Know 1 is right. If Gonzo were President, he'd be the second straight turkey in the White House, and we'd never know the difference!

AS much as many people will NOT want to hear this, barring some unforseen tragedy, Bush is all but unbeatable in November. There are few swing votes to be had in this election, and the only real democratic issue during Bush's tenure is the economy, which has been humming along nicely for at least a year now (unemployment notwithstanding). Capturing Saddam was a huge poll-buster and no doubt he'll engineer some sort of exit from Iraq at the right strategic moment. While some polls show Bush having only 50-55% of the electorate, he has far greater amounts of campaign Cash than any of the democrats, and he has not started to spend it yet. He is going to allow the democrats to slaughter one another and look disshevelled and disunited for as long as possible, and then appear to be the focused one....I think enough people will buy it too, unfortunately...

I love this one! 555. My favorite Dem moment so far was watching the pack defend Bush's tax cut during a debate in order to cut down Dean. This is exactly what killed George Bush the first - Pat Buchanan cutting a member of his own party over tax issues. It is beginning to look like the only credible candidate to oppose Bush is going to be Howard Dean. Everybody else appears to be on the Bush bandwagon one minute and trashing him the next. Either way, as a Republican I am enjoying the show. Great parody!

Took a second look - yes, I do know the original tune, and this parody is a good piece of work. Well Dunne.
