Left Wing Christmas Cheer

This is what passes for the Christmas, er, holiday spirit from liberal activists. No "peace on earth and good will to men" here. Rather, National Organization for Women President Kim Gandy has rewritten some Christmas Carols with a sophistication and maturity that reminds me of elementary school bus diddies (you know, "Jingle Bells, Batman smells..."):

(to the tune of "Jingle Bells")

Dashing through the snow
On our way to Capitol Hill
NOW rounds we will show,
And we won't stop until

We save the Su-preme Court
'Cause it protects our rights
We'll protest any nominee
Who won't support our fights.

Oh! Not the church, not the state,
We'll decide our fate
Oh what fun it is to plan
For the 2006 debates

(Now, Dick Cheney only!)

Oil, oil, oil,
Oil, oil, oil,
We drill it out of clay,
And if there's more in Iraq than here
Then we'll go there today,
Hey!

The fun doesn't stop there. For Sen. Trent Lott, Gandy recommends, "I'm dreaming... of a WHITE Christmas..."

Bing Crosby, there's a new lyricist in town.

Iraq, Oil
