Between being sick with a version of the flu since Tuesday (yep, I haven't worn anything more than a nightgown and/or bathrobe since then, NOR been out of the apartment) and the horrible state of the world, I've been in a black humor for awhile now.


BUT...Ginger Meeder and Mary Riley have come to my rescue - and perhaps yours too!


Ginger posted a list of
"Folksongs of the Far Right" in DNC and FSP, and Mary supplied the link!


Don't miss this..it's too amusing but sadly true as well...

Sing Along with George to His Own Version
                          of
“I’ve Been Working on the Railroad”  ~  lyrics by RC deWinter

I’ve been working on the budget,
All the livelong day.
I’ve been working on the budget
Of the good old USA,
I’ve been cutting social programs,
Taking money from the people,
Funding war instead!

Oh, Snow is in the back room with Chertoff,
Snow is in the backroom I know-o-o-ow,
Snow is in the back room with Chertoff,
Watching all the money flow.
And singing
Kill, kill, kill for the oil,
We need it badly you kno-o-o-ow,
Kill, kill, kill for the oil,
Oil makes our bankbooks grow!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ve been packing the Supreme Court,
All the livelong day,
I put Roberts with Alito,
And you know they’re there to stay,
They’ll make sure abortion’s finished,
Life is so sacred, don’t’cha know,
Unless you’re one of those insurgents,
Together they will strike down Roe.

Oh, Gonzalez in the courtroom with Roberts,
Gonzalez in the courtroom I kno-o-o-ow,
Gonzalez in the courtroom with Roberts,
Waving bye to Roe,
While singing
Roe, Roe, Roe versus Wade
Roe, Roe, versus Wa-a-a-ade,
Roe Roe versus Wade,
Together we will strike down Roe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ve been visiting in India,
All the livelong day,
I’ve been giving them plutonium,
So they can blow the world away,
We’ll be sucking all those mangoes,
Juice will be running down our face,
They’ll be building nuclear missiles,
Fueling a new arms race!

Oh, Singh is in the corner with Bodman,
Singh is in the corner I kno-o-o-ow,
Singh is in the corner with Bodman
Handing him a ripe mango.
And singing
Look, look, look what we got,
Look look what we go-o-o-ot,
Look look what we got,
Plutonium for a mango!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ve been busy selling seaports,
All the livelong day,
Let some other country run ‘em,
They’re a headache anyway.
All the Arabs are our friends now,
9/11’s just a memory,
Dubai is our pal and ally,
They’ve been checked thoroughly!

Sheikh Mohammed’s on the dockside with Rumsfeld,
Sheikh Mohammed’s the dockside I know-o-o-w,
Sheikh Mohammed’s on the dockside with Rumsfeld,
Pretending to inspect cargo.
And singing
Oh, ho, we run the ports,
Oh ho we run the por-or-or-orts,
Oh ho, we run the ports,
Smuggling who-knows-what cargo!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ve been spending lots of money,
All the livelong day,
I’ve been spending lots of money,
On blowing terrorists away,
Can’t you hear the bombers buzzing
Killing those insurgents left and right,
Can’t you hear the whole world shouting
Georgie you were right!

Oh, Condi’s in the bunker with Cheney,
Condi’s in the bunker I know-o-o-ow,
Condi’s in the bunker with Cheney,
Waiting for the world to blow.
And singing
Me, my, Halliburton-o
Me my Halliburton-o-o-o-oh,
Me my Halliburton OHHHHHHHHHHHH,
Waiting for the world to blow.

Dear President Bush,

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I've learned a great deal from you and understand why you would propose and support a constitutional amendment banning same sex marriage. As you said, 'In the eyes of God, marriage is based between a man and a woman." I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination.... end of debate.

I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them.

1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not to Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

2. I would like to sell my 15-year-old daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Leviticus 15:19-24. The problem is, how do I tell? I've tried asking, but most women take offense.

4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Leviticus 1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?

6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Leviticus 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?

7. Leviticus
21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?

8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Leviticus 19:27. How should they die?

9. I know from Leviticus 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Leviticus 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Leviticus 24:10-16.) Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with the people who sleep with their in-laws? (Leviticus 20:14.)

I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I'm confident you can help.

Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president,
or that we are to stand by the president,
right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile,
but is morally treasonable to the American public."
