The Lyrics

It's time for a Christmas song and Illinois politicians are rife with scandal, even the Savior Obama....
Obama's in danger no crib for his kids,
The stars at HNN say hey, what's this biz?
The Savior is coming no place for his stay,
Do like Gov'nor Blago make politics pay.

Commute from Chicago, you'll fly Air Force 1,
The fuel is paid for, your kids will have fun.
You'll make Michelle happy you know she will say,
I'll stay in Chi-town, not that house built by slaves.

Emanuel's lying, Obama awakes,
We'll scapegoat the Hebrew, he'll pay for mistakes.
Alexi Giannoulias is my banker bud,
If he remains silent, my name won't be mud.

I and Tony Rezko got financed by him,
I and the press know that this Savior can't sin

We love thee Obama, the Truth you can't hide,
In Leavenworth pen you will be Blago's bride!
Looks like D.C. is the new Chicago, so happy 4-8 years. Blagojevich got re-elected in a landslide. When will they ever learn, when will they ever learn...Dedicated to the Ghosts of Otto Kerner, Paul Powell, Dan Walker, Geo Ryan , Blago and whoever's next. Happy New Year!

Obama is also in danger of assassination. I have heard the OS years ago but cannot remember how it goes, so no vote, yet still quite good.

I suppose you'd rather have four more years of Republicans? America has spoken: In the word of Poe, "Nevermore!"

Well skewered, sir!

Gutsy post. As you've seen, there's a PC contingent here ready to bomb any anti-PC song, regardless of how funny... As I've asked elsewhere, "If Obama's Senate seat is for sale to the highest bidder, how much did he pay for it in the first place" ... Isn't it impossible to play on a muddy field without getting a little dirty yourself? 555
