“HERE’S A SONG I THINK YOU KIDS WILL REALLY ENJOY — AND YOUR MOM AND I AGREE IT’S EDUCATIONAL TOO”:

Bush, the magic drag-on, the lame GOP
Bollixed his whole Presidency, in a land called Iraqi
Little Dickie Cheney, loved to play real rough
Pulled Dubya’s strings and sealed his fate with a lotta’ made-up stuff

Bush, the magic drag-on, a sound economy
Let Wall Street crooks have their way, with complete autonomy
Little Hankie Paulson, lookin’ not so sharp
Can’t find the funds that he doled out, hidden by a TARP

“NOW, WE DON’T CONDONE THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITY. BUT EVER SINCE WALL STREET SOLD SECURITIZED PACKAGES OF THIS DEBT, EVERY AMERICAN NOW OWNS NOT ONLY FANNIE MAE, BUT A PIECE OF CRYSTAL … AND CRYSTAL METH.”
