The Lyrics

The new flavor of the month is Fred Thompson. I don't get it. What has he ever done besides act? At least he's a better actor than the brain surgeons the Republicans usually tell us to elect as our Governors. But that doesn't mean we should go bonkers over him like certain "conservatives" and the media are doing.
Well, I think I'm going bonkers for Fred.
Yes, I think I'm going bonkers for Fred
over you
over you.

Don't want you, you Rudy.
Don't want you, Mitt Romney.
And John McCain, I don't want you.

And I think I'm going bonkers for Fred
'cause conservatism, he's never shed
unlike you
unlike you.

I see him each morning
on ten different channels
a "Law & Order" he's on is rerun.

And I think I'm going bonkers for Fred.
Yes, I think I'm going bonkers for Fred.

Going bonkers for Fred!
Over you!
Bonkers for Fred!
Over you!
Bonkers for Fred!
Day and night!
Swerve to right!
Day and night!
He's the right man
right to our heart.
There's no reason why
being bald guy
should keep him from part.

And I think I'm going bonkers for Fred.
Yes, I think I'm going bonkers for Fred.

Going bonkers for Fred!
Over you!
Bonkers for Fred!
Over you!
Bonkers for Fred!
Day and night!
Swerve to right!
Day and night!
Swerve to right!
(repeat 'til fade)

Well, for starters, it might have something to do with his having cleaned Michael Moore's clock.

By the title...I was hoping this might have a mild sexual theme...but, political's okay..yeah Fred's better'n some of the others

I like Fred Thompson, but I don't really get it either. But Thompson served in the Senate for 8 years, and Barack Obama has only served there for 4 years, so what has he ever done? Of course, part of the appeal for both of them is that they were not in the Senate for the Iraq War vote. Oh, good title and parody.

When did Thompson, or any other right-winger, clean Moore's clock? Moore's clock is positively filthy.

Worst case scenario: What if Brangelina were nominated for Pres and Veep?

Angelina Jolie: Half-French (well, French-Canadian) superbabe from California, with the brain to match the body, who knows a thing or two about foreign policy, works well with the United Nations? Sure, I'd vote for her, except she won't be constitutionally old enough to serve in the Presidency until 2010. Brad Pitt, an overrated pretty boy from the redneck, gun-obsessed, Oral Roberts State of Oklahoma? Who led Geena Davis into a life of crime? Oh, hell, no! (Then again, she did go on to become President for a little while.) Putting aside my feelings for Catherine Zeta-Jones and her husband the mummy, THIS is the celebrity relationship thta REALLY needs to end!
