Anti-Kerry song thread

OK, you couldn’t leave it alone, so now we’re forced to respond.

When I change my mind, head’s up my behind
Fight the GOP
Won’t you vote Ker-ry?
I’m a Demo, you should know, gonna be around
I have got no place to go, policies unsound
If you’re all alone when the brightest minds have flown
Honey vote Ker-ry
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best to flip and lie
Don’t ever ask me to look into your eyes

Fight the GOP
(That’s all I ask of you honey)
Take a chance on me

We can solve problems, we can balance budgets, as long as we’re together
Listen to my bullshit, maybe I’m just waffling, get to know me better
‘Cos you know I’ve got
So much that I wanna do, but I don’t have a fuckin’ clue
It’s tragic
Voters should beware, I’m wholly unaware
But I think you know
It’s the Demo show

If you lose your mind, I’ll be very kind
Cast your vote for me
Make the pubbies flee
I will spout the party line, just like Kennedy
Office means much more than credibility
When the polls have closed and I’m on TV
To announce we’ve lost
To the GOP
Gonna try to allege a conspiracy
Between Diebold and the GOP

Why’d you vote for me?
(I don’t know my own position)
Wasted a chance on me

Apologies to others who like ABBA for partisan use of melody.

I recommend that you keep your day job.

Kerry Kerry
Quite contrary
How does your flip flop grow?
With fuzzy deals
and paid for meals
and lobbyists all in a row.

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

Warmaker, Warmaker, make me a war.
Find me bin Laden, even the score.
Warmaker, Warmaker, look through your book
And make me a perfect war.

Bushmeister, Bushmeister, I’ll bring the lies.
You bring the troops, all ready to die.
Bring me some oil, for I’m longing to be
The envy of all, in my new SUV.

The other thread was stupid enough. Why do we need two?

Even as someone who’s pretty thoroughly partisan himself, all this tendentious bullshit is getting really fucking irksome.

Getting? I vote we skip to the day of the election already.

But how can you vote to skip to the day of the election? You can’t vote until the election! Curses!

:stuck_out_tongue:

Of course, when the election starts varies from state to state. IIRC, Oregonians can vote already.

In theory, maybe. I’ve had no ballot delivered to my mailbox yet and doubt I will for another few weeks.

Oh, lighten up! This is the nastiest, bitterest presidential election cycle since 1972 – and it’s also the most fun! The most exciting! The most (in the Chinese sense) interesting! 2000 was a boring election year! Wasn’t 2000 boring? Until they had to count the votes, that is. But all this high-energy backbiting and slander and machinations and demonstrations and all – this is fun! This is civic life at its lowest and highest combined!

H.L. Mencken once cynically remarked that democracy is the one truly amusing form of government humanity has devised. I say that’s one of the things that make it worthwhile!

Come on you guys! Where are all the liberals who say their sense of humor is
superior to conservatives?

The offspring “Why Don’t you get a Job”

John Kerry has a problem
and he hates that bitch
he tells us every day
He says “Man I really gotta find my schtick
in the worst kind a way”
He gets off his ass
He works his hands to the bone
to find a tune which people will play
but his focus it really does seem to roam
well my friend
you gotta say

I wan play, I wan play a to playayayay
Wah Wah why can’t I get the job!
Say no way, say no way, no wayayayay
Tell me why can’t I have the job!

I guess his intentions, well they aren’t enough
to keep all his detractors at bay
I guess his intentions, well they aren’t enough
cause he can’t figure what to say

I wan play, I wan play a to playayayay
Wah Wah why can’t I get the job!
Say no way, say no way, no wayayayay
Tell me why can’t I have the job!

BrainGlutton I notice you didn’t write a song in here. And I am hurt you did not notice my song in your thread. :wink:

Yore song’s real purty. I done hearded that he wuz a flip-flopper and my paw says he’s soft on them terorists what blowed up the 9/11 towers.

I feel icky
Oh so icky
I feel yucky and mucky and sutch
That I’ll vote for
any idiot that isn’t Bush

Tra la la la la la la la la la

(Sung to the tune of “Whip it” by Devo)

Flip Flop Flip!
Give the polls a glance
Vote for the smack
Then you take it back!

When a position comes along
you must flip it
If the focus group says “wrong”
You must flip it
If a swing state’s goin’ wrong
You must flip it.

Now flip it
Into shape
Change it up
First rate
Go forward
Change again
Take a position
It’s not to late
To flip it
Flip it good.

Vote to the left for twenty years
You must flip it
Tellin’ lies bout cutting ears
You must flip it
Don’t forget to play on fears
You must flip it

Now flip it
Into shape
Change it up
First rate
Go forward
Change again
Take a position
It’s not to late
To flip it
Flip it good.

(bridge of music while imagining Kerry dancing to Devo)

Check that poll!
Finally start to cry
Start seeing the cracks
Looks like Dubya is back!

When a position comes along
you must flip it
If the focus group says “wrong”
You must flip it
If a swing state’s goin’ wrong
You must flip it.

Now flip it
Into shape
Change it up
First rate
Go forward
Change again
Take a position
It’s not to late
To flip it
Flip it good.

Flip-flip, fozz-fizz,
Oh what a relief it is…

Looks like you all absorbed the RNC talking points really well.

So, how many of these threads before danceswithcats gets Reeder’d and gets only one Pit thread?

-Joe

They both have a ways to go to catch RTFirefly:

Pitting Bush for stuff that doesn’t seem to rate its own thread

I pit the GOP: mailing saying liberals will ban the Bible

Bushies admit they “advocate retreat and defeat in the face of terror”!

Bush - Baghdad Bob!

Cheney and eBay (stupid but funny)

Dennis Hastert: Soros might have made his money in illegal drugs

GOP: ‘We can’t tell you who’s on the platform committee’

The latest Bush meme: “the Dem 527s are accusing us of poisining pregnant women”

And then there’s the TEXAS Republican Platform…

Letting History Make Fun of the 2000 GOP Platform

Bush’s “The Rich Don’t Pay Taxes” Meme

BushCo outs our al-Qaeda infiltrator?! (Incompetent, malevolent, who gives a flip??)

And that’s just in the last six weeks or so.

This thread got a chuckle out of me. I wish I had the talents to join in. To both sides, well done.
