Mellencamp for Kerry

Mamamontezz wrote a fitting tribute for Kerry sung to the tune of Jack and Diane. Here's an excerpt:

Little ditty 'bout John and T'ray-za
2 priv'leged kids politic-ing cross the heartland.
John, he wants to be a big Lib'ral Star
T'ray-za's dillitante-medicated Dill Pickle Czar.

See the rest here.

In all fairness and equal time here is a song about that moron in the white house.

Like to Persecute You
(Original: "Like to Get to Know You" written by Stuart Scharf, performed by Spanky and Our Gang)

Bush would like to persecute you (yes he would)
Bush would like to persecute you (if he could)
Bush would like to persecute you

You're on shaky ground if you've been around
Anyone who's foreign
You should worry, too, if Bin Laden looks like you
Or you read the Koran

Bush would like to persecute you (yes he would)
Bush would like to persecute you (if he could)
Bush would like to persecute you

Lesbian or gay? It's just not your day!
There's no saving your soul
At the present time your love is a crime
Isn't Bush is an asshole?

Bush would like to persecute you (yes he would)
Yes, he'd like to persecute you (if he could)

Well, Bush has promised that he'll do away with you
Politically speaking, he'll have his way with you
Bush has promised, yeah, Bush has promised
That he'll screw you

Bush would like to persecute you (yes he would)
Yes, he'd like to persecute you (if he could)
Bush would like to persecute you-yeah, you!
You-oo-oo
He'd like to persecute you-yeah, you!
You-oo-oo
He'd like to persecute you-yeah, you!
You-oo-oo
And he'd probably like to shoot you-yeah, you!
You-oo-oo

Bush would like to hound you
Hatred will surround you (Bush would like to persecute you, yes he would)
Bush would like to hound you (Yes, he'd like to persecute you if he could)
Bigots will surround you (Bush would like to persecute you, yes he would)
Bush would like to hound you (Yes, he'd like to persecute you if he could)
Meanness will surround you (Bush would like to persecute you, yes he would)

Yeah, but that's not funny. That just sounds like somebody doesn't like Bush.

"Dillitante-medicated Dill Pickle Czar" is funny though.

Guess it depends on your perspective. I laughed, I cried, I sung it again.
