#1 I assume you're using "special" in the same sense as in "special education".

#6 My day was going slightly slow, but pleasantly enough - until this. All the tea in the world won't wash the bad taste of this out of my mouth.

#7 Will someone please tell that woman to cut her dam* nails? Does she have any idea of the food, bowel residue, sexual emissions, and general filth people carry under those things? (Poor James...)

#10 Is anyone else nauseated at the fact that the goody two-shoes Hollywood left turned a treacly happy slappy song celebrating the general nifty peopleness of people into a song that is anti-some people?

What's next?

Down, down with sheeple
When you meet 'em, give 'em a push
Down, down the stairs,
They're just gonna vote for Bush

Or how about

I'd like to buy George Bush a Coke
And poison it with glue
Kill Dick Cheney
And old Wolfie
And shoot down Rumsfeld too

I mean, Jebus.

#13 Well done, Angie!

I always liked the Fine Young Cannibals cover version of "People." IIRC, it went something like this:

People,
People who eat . . . people,
Are the yuckiest people in the world . . .

:-)

#15 I'm guessing she and her audience think this is both highly clever and screamingly funny. Such people in this world, indeed.

#16 JerseyMike, encourage her to speak loudly and frequently. Not all Americans pay constant attention. When she reaches out, she does it with all the sublety and grace of a drunken zombie.

#17 I can see the Tshirts:
"We paid 5 million bucks and all we got was this lousy song."

#19 http://timblair.spleenville.com/archives/007047.php#076044

Our brains, soft as an easy chair;
Brains, empty as morning air.
In love with J-F-K-two,
We'll raise funds for you.

Crushed Dean under the Iowa snow,
Always certain your campaign would grow.
Us old Progressives and Greens,
Now we'll beat Bush Two.

You and I will raise five million bucks,
From other limousine liberals.
Neil Diamond and Babs, their show is unrehearsed.
We'll still buy the tickets
'Cause we all hate Geor-orge Bush,
Oh, Kerry, you're the one!
No oil drilling under midnight sun!
We'll retake the White House and Congress;
Give us power and we'll make a mess,
Aged Progressives a-a-a-a-nd Greens.

#20 Sung to "Take Me Out To The Ballgame"

Take me out with the left wing
With that Hollywood crowd.
Get me tofu and organic snacks.
Eat union grapes I will give you a whack!

So lets root, root root, for John Kerry
If he don't win it's a fraud.
For its time-to-turn our brains off.
At election time.

#21 This dreck makes Amiri Baraka seem good enough to be State Poet of New Jersey. Oh, right, he was State Poet of New Jersey.

#22 Memories,
Of the talent we left behind,
Now all we got is lotsa venom,
For George W. Bush. . ..

#25 Holy shit, I only glanced at this earlier in the day. I thought it was just lousy parody, but this was an actual song sung by B.S.!!?!??!?! I can't believe it. This rules. I've never heard of anything like it.

Time to ge fitted for a straightjacket, Funny Girl.

#26 Threw this one on Blair's place:

A Second-rate Nose

My Party has a philosophy strictly second hand
Everything from welfare to care of the land
Stuff that's their beliefs came from before the Second World War
Even job creation plans something FDR did before
Itâs no wonder that I feel confused
I never think a thing that ainât been used

Iâm saying second hand cliches
Second hand prose
Thatâs why they call me
A Second-rate Nose...
