Good old flip-flopper, Barry. He's almost starting to look like a real politician, instead of the dangerous man I believe him to be. Here is my latest. Based on Oscar Hammerstein's lyrics to Getting to Know You from the King and I.
Getting to Know Them
It's a very ancient saying
But a true and honest thought
That if you run for office
By your statements you'll be caught
As a voter I've been learning
(You'll forgive me if I choke)
But I've now become an expert
On the subject: How to Vote!
[spoken]
Getting to Know Them!
[Voters giggle]
Getting to know them, Getting to know all about them
Nothing to like when nobody else speaks for me
Getting to know them, seeing it my way
Precisely,
To put it 'nicely'
Don't muck with me
[voters giggle]
[All sing]
Getting to know them, Getting to know all about them
Nothing to like when nobody else speaks for me
Getting to know them, seeing it my way
Precisely,
To put it 'nicely'
Don't muck with me
Getting to know them
Wanting to feel Free, that's easy!
And so I listen
Getting to know how they play
Haven't you noticed
Obama's bright but sleazy?
Because of all those character-flawed friends
Do the means justify ends?
No! I Say!
Getting to know them
Wishing away John, that's easy
But though he's older
Don't you believe what he says?
Havent' you noticed
Life's never easy-peasy?
I don't believe he's evil as B.O.
Use your audacity to vote
No! B. O.!
