Raisin' McCain


Found this over on thoughtcrimes and needed to share...

"To prove that he is as hip and relevant as Obama, The Great White Mope has got himself a theme song.

Written by country singer John Rich (who?), Raisin' McCain is sure to set some toes a tappin', provided you've taken your arthritis medication.

First off, let's talk about the title. Are they sure the word "raisin" is a word they want associated with McCain? Advertising Age pointed out the problem with that:
Seriously, "Raisin"!? As in a grape that's been left out in the sun to become sticky, shriveled and packed in a box?
And then things don't get much better from there.
Well we're all just raisin' McCain
Everywhere across the USA
You can get on the train or get out of the way
We're all just raisin' McCain
Always nice to be threatened by the Republicans. Do things our way, or we will run over you with a train. Personally, I prefer a fork lift.
Well he got shot down in a Vietnam town
Fighting for the red, white and blue
And they locked him up in the Hanoi Hilton
Thinking they could break him in two
If dropping bombs on civilians is his idea of "fighting for the red, white & blue" then I guess this explains a lot about McCain's Iraq stance.
He stayed strong, stayed extra long
'Til they let all the other boys out
Now we've got a real man with an American plan
We're going to put him in the big White House
I get chills when I hear that, it's so, so....

No, wait. That's nausea."
