And so she wants to lead She’s got the plan we need So what if there’s that “science” stuff she can’t understand? Michele One “L” Didn’t ask her spouse and he won’t tell Poor Michele She needs us, she needs us, she needs us She needs to make us see Our proud history So what if there’s so much of it she can’t understand? She loves us!! (short bass solo. Come on. You know you’re humming it now) She wants us, she wants us, she wants us To down a quart or three Of kool-aid she calls “tea” So what if there’s some basic math she can’t understand? Michele One “L” Medicare can bid a fond farewell Says Michele And if she wins the White House, that’s a world I won’t understand Oh, Michelllllllllle! (Shoot, I'll SPLIT the royalties with Sir Paul. I don't ask for much.)

Originally Posted By Dabob2 Thanks, ya'll. {blush} I'm half tempted to record it, with the extreme 60's stereo separation and everything, just for a giggle.

Originally Posted By Dabob2 Okay, y'all. I actually did it. Recorded it. I was able to listen to the original and replicate the instruments pretty well.

Then I sat down with a friend of mine who's facile at Final Cut Pro, and we came up with some images and made us a video. It got accepted by a comedy website (!) and I'm going to post it on YouTube too after I create an account there. Links to come!

Originally Posted By Dabob2 LOL! Okay, here are the links. Do me a favor and view them both if you would. Identical, but I hope you'll want to watch more than once, and A) I'd like to give this new comedy site a boost for accepting it and b) YouTube is still the standard for what goes viral, so I'd like that hit too. Tell your friends! Send the links! Let's make this puppy go viral! <a href="http://theruckus.com/videos/an-ode-to-michele-bachmann/" target="_blank">http://theruckus.com/videos/an...achmann/</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gVZsypIKGc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...ZsypIKGc</a>
