Blah blah blah blah… republicans bad, democrats good… blah blah blah blah blah… growing tiresome… can somebody please do a song the other way around? That might actually sound original. And no that Toby Keith crap doesn’t count.

I wonder if you even listened to the track, or if you just wrote the review based on the title..

I understand mixing music & political opinion isn’t always artistically well advised…

but neither is writing half assed analysis without listeneing to the music or lyrics…

The song is not actually about Cheney…

It’s about Cheney’s Toy…

Believe it or not, the most powerful protest song I’ve heard this year is Sheryl Crow’s “God Bless This Mess”… she played it solo on Terry Gross last night and it killed. No idea about the rest of the record, though.
