It made me so mad that it was successfully appealed, I went and wrote a song. Or rather updated a song. I'm sure you'll recognize it. This blog is quite the bad influence.
I cried when they shot Gabbie Giffords I wailed for more gun control The shootings at movies and temples Moved all American's souls But who cares about drone bomb victims? They're nothing but charred smoking holes So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal
I go to women's rights rallies And I love and support all the gays The GOP is at war with our freedoms But what's that about NDAA? Oh you crazy conspiracy theorist You folks never cease to amaze! So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal
I cheered when Obama was chosen My faith in the system restored I forgot about anti-war protests And torture's now safely ignored George Bush was the worst person ever But justice is really a bore So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal
The people who all vote Republican Should hang their heads in disgrace I can't understand how their minds work They're a shame on the whole human race But now I'm okay with austerity Barack really made a good case So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal
I read Kos and Salon and Balloon Juice I really keep up on the news I can tell you about how the right wing Ruins all the Prez wants to do You say he lied about single payer? You're voting for Romney, aren't you? So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal
I vote for the Democratic party Not even a question for me There's no other viable option Even if with them I claim to agree I'd remind you that Nader ruined everything So forget about Jill and Cheri So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal
Oh I love that you're young and impulsive Wear every conceivable pin Go to all those Occupy meetings Just remember apostasy's a sin Revolution is nothing to speak of Don't you kids know that you'll never win? So love me love me love me, I'm a liberal~

The post title was the best part. :D

I wonder what they'll call it when the next Republican who wins picks up where Obama left off?
They'll call it an unprecedented, unmitigated evil caused by purists who shamefully withheld their votes from the deserving Democrats.

High Arka, thanks -- always glad when the titles get a little love, which is not often at all.
Michael, I was considering riffing on that song in this 'toon, very much on my mind while writing it.
Peter, nice work. I imagine Phil would approve.
Peter, I may need to borrow your rewrite.
I'm prepared to pay handsomely for the privilege. Cookies, beer, a new used car, whatever. Name your price!
Attribution is fine miss.
And thank you VL.
