Neocon music!!! |
Oh my fucking god...I couldn't make this ***** up if I tried.
From Thinkprogress:
"Bush Was Right!" - The New Hit Single Ready to Rock a Generation
RightMarch.com, a conservative online advocacy group, has launched a
campaign trying to get a right-wing musical duo, The Right Brothers, onto
MTV.
Well grab your iPods and crank up your speakers, because ThinkProgress has a
sneak preview of the Brothers' new single, "Bush Was Right." If any song was
ever a virtual lock to top the TRL charts, it's got to be this rockin'
tribute to all things Bush.
Some sample lyrics...below (and no, this is not a parody):
Freedom in Afghanistan, say goodbye Taliban
Free elections in Iraq, Saddam Hussein locked up
Osama's staying underground, Al Qaida now is finding out
America won't turn and run once the fighting has begun
Don't you know that all this means.
Bush was right! Bush was right!"
Keith Olbermann's take...

Do you think Billy Joel can sue for them ripping off "We Didn't Start the
Fire"?

Any chance they're being ironic?

Counting their chickens a bit early ain't they? Especially considering

Neofascist self-parodies. It doesn't get any better than this.

Bob Dylan should have sued Billy Joel; "We Didn't Start The Fire"
could have easily been subtitled "What If Subterranean Homesick Blues
Sucked?".

Raven1, you are brilliant, my thoughts exactly. Do you think Tim
Robbins can sue for them ripping off 'Bob Roberts'? Unfortunately
probably not...not enough people saw that brilliant movie.

Perhaps not, but I think REM should sue them for ripping off the
rhythm and feel of "It's the End of the World As We Know It."
Unfortunately probably not...not enough people saw that
brilliant movie.
"The Times They Are a-Changin' Back." :)
Alas, EVERYONE has now seen the movie, in a manner of speaking.
The Bob Roberts character perfectly predicted the cynical,
scripted, dissembling, divisive, profit-driven abuse by the
Republican Party of what once passed for American values. Like
Shrub, Roberts based his campaign as much on his charm and on
his talent for making people feel safe and proud than on any
issue of substance. And Roberts' campaign manager (played by
Alan Rickman) embodies the tactics of Karl Rove perfectly, right
down to the use of manufactured scandal to discredit the
opposition.
