Here's a song for you . . . - 12/11/00 09:41 AM

I received this in an email last week and have been doing it. It goes over great to the tune of Beverly Hillibillies.

--- The Nashville Hillbillies ---
> >
> > Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Gore
> > A snippy Democrat, who was really quite a bore
> > On election day of his Presidential bout
> > He thought he lost the fight but he got to recount
> > ballots that is... punch cards... butterflies
> >
> > Well the next thing you know they're countin' 'em again
> > He lost a second time so he gave it all some spin
> > They said Palm Beach is the place you oughta be
> > So he hired legal experts from Tallahassee
> > Florida that is... sunshine state... deadlocked
> >
> > Well the next thing you know they wanna change the rules
> > And play around with votes cause they think we're a bunch of fools
> > They riled lotsa folks and they made a lotta fuss
> > Till Cheney came along and started kickin' butts
> > Buttocks that is... liberal hineys... left-wing tuchas
> >
> > Al Gore whined that the system wasn't fair
> > After countin' ballot holes that weren't even there
> > Kate Harris said that the recount was a joke
> > But that didn't stop the liberals from tallyin' votes
> > Democrat votes that is... hangin' chad...dimpled ballots
> >
> > Well the State Supreme Court gave Gore another break
> > They let him count again cause the party was at stake
> > But just when he thought that his dream was born anew
> > The overseas votes gave it all to W
> > George W that is... Texas Governor... President-elect
> >
> > Now it's time to say good-bye to Al and all his kin
> > He tried to steal some votes but it didn't help him win
> > You're all invited over to his house in Tennessee
> > To sit around and blubber at his pity-party
> > Nashville that is... pout a while... have some sour grapes
> >
> > Ya'll have fun now... Ya Hear?

Right you are, Nobby,

I've heard this song (or what sounded very much like it) on the radio two nights ago - on NPR.

Regards,
Alex
