Music Video: All I Want (Is for McCain to Make Some Sense)

This song comes from an effort to sketch out and make sense of John McCain's wildly varying statements and behaviors.

Apologies to Elvis Costello for Mangling Human Hands beyond much recognition.

Lyrics:

I've been watching the TV and John McCain is on He's getting itchy mad and now he's singing "Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran" no talk to Ahmedinejad who's not the leader like we did for 20 years except hang on well that we didn't do A country next door he wanted to invade and stay a while For five or for a hundred he can't decide but it'll be in style Greeted with flowers or an IED they hate us no it's safe with a hundred guards or so ===================== Whenever he starts to open his mouth then I have to figure out What the heck that he's talking about You know I had to draw me a diagram All I ever want is for McCain to kinda make some sense ===================== He says he stands for freedom and he says he stands for liberty Apparently that's just for men the women get no freedom no autonomy Add a few more Thomases, Alitos Scalias and the Robertses will take it all away When McCain got into power he swore a solemn oath To protect preserve defend uphold this nation's Bill of Rights Then he voted against free speech and against a fair trial Theocracy is something he's been pushing for a while ===================== Whenever he starts to open his mouth then I have to figure out What the heck that he's talking about You know I had to draw me a diagram All I ever want is for McCain to start to make some sense ===================== You might remember with George Bush the way it all was gonna be A little bit more honor and a lot more integrity. Well... ... you know the rest While John McCain's top staffers are writing up his bills They're also paid by corporate boards, they don't deny they're corporate shills There's only a dozen or two dozen or three dozen or four dozen Running his campaign He started his career by taking money on the side Now he's running away from George Bush but he can't hide from his 95 percent voting record for Bush Could he hug George Bush any closer than that? Do you want four more, do you want four more Do you want four more, do you want four more Do you want four more, do you want four more Do you really want four more years of this? ===================== Whenever he starts to open his mouth then I have to figure out What the heck that he's talking about You know I had to draw me a diagram All I ever want is for McCain to finally make some sense =====================

Hillarious, but true!

All I want is for the American people to wake up and start taking responsibility as citizens instead of watching Dancing With The Stars.

Kiwi you and your family are in my heart and prayers. Please military families, speak out - tell others that have NOT sacrificed what this is really about! We need our troops to be home and cared for. McCain walked away from strengthened legislation to support the troops - Jim Webb, Obama, Hagel, Biden and others understand the true cost of war - Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and now McCain are CLUELESS!

Great, than can you take my husband's place when McCain tries to send him back to Iraq or maybe even Iran! I am so sick of people thInking about themselves. You don't have to nurse my husband back to health while we are dealing with PTSD. He watched his friend die while he was holding his hand. THINK ABOUT THAT!

All I want is for McCain to win. Obama is as worthless as Hillary. Satan has more good points than those two.
