The Fascist Follies
There is something both odd and irritating about watching a political leader blithely singing a silly song as he otherwise destroys his country.

While it is generally acknowledged that corporations don’t have hearts, they apparently have feelings, tetchy feelings that are easy to both hurt and inflame.

Killing Off the Cooked Goose Instead of the Lame Duck
SNL usually employs a delicate touch when it comes to making fun of politicians. The intentions are broad and the execution silly, so as not to unduly offend the tetchy sensibilities of an America now divided between people who use the noun “libs” and those who know the difference between a noun and an adjective.

For we've all seen her spurn The aprin and the churn And she isn't gonna sink when we dunk her in the drink So, burn Goody Clinton, burn! Oh, what a snap it'll be To prove she is a witch, and with a capital B For where a man might be ambitious, she is uppity And where a man might be assertive, she is shrill Where a man might have a plan, she has a necromantic scheme Men are sensitive, she's soft Men are rugged, she's ill-coiffed Men are steadfast, she is filled with ill Hill will. Well, a woman who is competent - men, that's blaspemy And I needn't say, she's not the kind of lass for me And she's not a good influence on poor Bill or e- Ven Chelsey Hillary "Goodwife" Clinton Burn Goody Clinton, burn! She's far from taciturn Which causes us concern And she isn't gonna sink When we dunk her in the drink So a better way to try 'er Is to toss her on the pyre And the only way that she'd Be converted is to feed the infern...o Burn, oh... Burn Goody Clinton, burn!

"Eine Kleine Barackmusik" by Roy Zimmerman

http://royzimmerman.com/ This song, with apologies to W. A. Mozart, is available for download at http://royzimmerman.com/ EINE KLEINE BARACKMUSIK Barack Obama has a funny name Barack Obama has a funny name His name's Barack Obama That's right, Obama Sounds like Osama I'm just the hundred-forty-seven-thousanth comic to have made that idiotic point And his middle name, middle name And his middle name's Hussein Hussein, not Saddam, but Obam... When he was a kid he smoked a joint And he inhaled He smoked a joint and inhaled, that was the point He also did cocaine His middle name's Hussein He wants to be the POTUS And I wonder if you notice That Barach Hussein Obama has a funny name Obama is the candidate of change Ought to change his name, it's pretty strange Why can't he just be John or Steve? Or Bill or even George? Or anything but Sue And one more question: Is he black enough Yes, is he black enough to be the president? Born in Honolulu He's got kin in every region Schooled in Indonesia He's a one-man Foriegn Leagion He's got game And also hope, and lots of folks who feel the same And also, did I mention, quite a quirky name And once you go Barack You're never going bock Bock Barack...Obama!
