Let The Eagle Snore

It would seem that Republicans are pathologically unable to write decent music (this means The Nuge, too, though Alice Cooper seems exempt, though I'm not sure how long he's been a Republican). Witness Orrin Hatch's paen to America's favorite Grumpy Hero:


"Together forever
America is the country we all love
We believe our destiny
Comes from god above
Let's link our hands for all to see
Our country's majesty

Forever together
America is the land we're fighting for
There's a time in history
For a hero's destiny
Together forever more

Hey John
Say John
They're gonna hit you hard with ev'ry thing they've got

Hey John
Come on
They'll be calling you
Everything you're not!

But sure as heaven
We're gonna win
Start celebrating
Now let's begin

Together forever
America is the country we all love
Let's link our hands for all to see
Our country's majesty

Forever together
America is the land we're fighting for
There's a time in history
For a hero's destiny
Together for evermore"
During the 2004 Campaign, I suggested to a number of musician friends of mine that a compilation of different bands during another great Right Wing Hymn, in radically different styles, would be awesome. I'm not sure this one wants the same attention. What do you think?
