I am Sarah!

Sarah I am!

That Sarah-I-Am
That Sarah-I-Am
I do not like Sarah-I-Am!

Do you like political shams?

I do not like them, Sarah-I-Am!
I do not like political shams!

Would you like me to shoot a moose?
Would you like me to be the golden goose?

I do not want you to shoot a moose
I do not want you to be the golden goose
I do not like political shams
I do not like you, Sarah-I-Am!

Dont you want to see my beehived locks?
Dont you want to see me talk on Fox?

I don't like your locks
Don't wanna watch you on Fox
Dont want you to shoot a moose
or be the golden goose
I do not like political shams
I do not like you, Sarah-I-Am.

While in Cleveland, my doctor who happened to be black – had a doctorate in Psychology as well as her M.D. And actually, now that I think of it the doctors at the hospital I worked in Bedford the doctors with dual degrees, like Dr. Benjamin and my physician, were physicians of color.

Wingnut Summer of Love

Starburst Revolution! - Turn on, tune in, drop out! - Head out on the highway - Lookin' for adventure - And whatever comes your way - Hike the Appalachian Trail - On The Road to Argentina - Naked Brunch - Teabagger Orgies in the Park - G.O.P-Ins - Hampton hideaways and hushpuppy money - Psychedelic wavy gravy love train - lizard brain - proclaim hearts aflame - no shame - media blame - C-Street Spawn Ranch - Helper Shelter!...

There is a House in Washington
They call the Fellowship
And it's been a den of many a fool
God knows there's more than one
Oh mother tell our children
To be a hypocrite
Spend your time in spin and mystery
In the House of the Fellowship.

Like a true wingnut child - We were born, born to be wild - We can climb so high - Never wanna die! We can grope your thigh!

Born to be wild!
Born to be wild!

R - Freelove update

David Brooks, appearing on MSNBC, recalls an intimate evening with a Republican senator:

BROOKS: You know, all three of us spend a lot of time covering politicians and I don’t know about you guys, but in my view, they’re all emotional freaks of one sort or another. They’re guaranteed to invade your personal space, touch you. I sat next to a Republican senator once at dinner and he had his hand on my inner thigh the whole time. I was like, ehh, get me out of here.

HARWOOD: What?

BROOKS: I can only imagine what happens to you guys.

O’DONNELL: Sorry, who was that?

BROOKS: I’m not telling you, I’m not telling you.
