The Lyrics

If the current anger against Congress is merely a faked staged activity by "Astroturf", then why are so many high-profile crafters of the current agenda choosing not to seek re-election? ;D


Buggin' out - leaving Congress!
Time to retire or move on,
Getting out of this big mess,
Just can't get the big groove on!
Kennedy's not returning,
Old Chris Dodd is fleeing town.
In Dakota, folks are burning,
Dorgan knew he's going down!

Bayh's quitting, he's disgusted - Ev's p*ssed!
Jim Bunning is not running - not missed!

Open G.O.P. seats? Many!
Brownback, Bond, Gregg, Voinovich.
Barack's seat cost Burris plenty,
Biden's holder ripped a stitch!


Incumbents have naught to fear
In a normal voting year,
But this time the folks are mad,
And this time they can be had!
Fixtures now are bailing,
Fleeing down the path,
Approval ratings failing,
Facing voters wrath!


(Instrumental chorus to the bridge)


And those staying are now saying "It's all
The fault of those who made health care stall!"

There's lots of loud blaming,
Pointing fingers plain to see.
The White House will be claiming
Job creation in D.C.!


As for me, I beat the rush and retired in October! ;D

Let's hope that this "flew" is contagious! Like the specific inclusion of names; there will be more...
