"When The President Speaks To God" on The Leno Show.

My wife and I heard this "song" played on Seattle radio on Saturday and I just had to find out if Jay Leno really allowed this "bleep" on his show. When I searched Google, I found this film of it. It's apparently true. Did anyone see this on Leno? If so, he needs to be "outed"

Anybody who is offended by this must have pretty thin skin.

Yes, I saw it live and couldn't believe it. Not just because it was such a blatant slam at the president, which I suppose you could argue is just free speech, but because it was such a stupid, piece of cr*p song. The guy who sang it had apparently heard a lot of old Bob Dylan albums without managing to absorb one iota of talent for song craft or lyric writing. It sounded like something written by a sullen, not-very-bright 15-year-old who's just finished his third guitar lesson and celebrated by listening to Air America for an hour. Absolutely pathetic. If this is what the left thinks is going to put Republicans on the run, then they are simultaneously sad and laughable.

Singer Touches Off Outrage Following 'Tonight' Appearance 3 May 2005 (StudioBriefing) Jay Leno, who has frequently denied accusations that he favors political conservatives, presented Omaha singer Conor Oberst of the band Bright Eyes Monday night, who offered a scathing satirical song titled "When the President Talks to God." Sample: "When the president talks to God/Are the conversations brief or long?/Does he ask to rape our women's' rights/And send poor farm kids off to die?/Does God suggest an oil hike/When the president talks to God?" The song immediately touched off debate on numerous Internet blogs. One writer commented: "This guy is clearly confused about the majority of, if not all of, the issues. I saw him on Leno and literally laughed my ass off at how idiotic he was." Another writer remarked on a different blog: "I can't recall hearing a more overt and harsh denunciation of the president in song. ... I'm no Jay fan, but I've got to give him full credit for making elements of his audience squirm."

When the president talks to God Are the conversations brief or long? Does he ask to rape our women's rights And send poor farm kids off to die? Does God suggest an oil hike When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God Are the consonants all hard or soft? Is he resolute all down the line? Is every issue black or white? Does what God say ever change his mind When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God Does he fake that drawl or merely nod? Agree which convicts should be killed? Where prisons should be built and filled? Which voter fraud must be concealed When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God I wonder which one plays the better cop We should find some jobs. the ghetto's broke No, they're lazy, George, I say we don't Just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke That's what God recommends

When the president talks to God Do they drink near beer and go play golf While they pick which countries to invade Which Muslim souls still can be saved? I guess god just calls a spade a spade When the president talks to God

When the president talks to God Does he ever think that maybe he's not? That that voice is just inside his head When he kneels next to the presidential bed Does he ever smell his own bullshit When the president talks to God?

I doubt it

I doubt it

Dear God, is that what passes for music today? Some of the losers on American Idol were better than that.

It IS disgusting....but I don't think we should give them the indignation they want. They're throwing this out as bait and we shouldn't play their game. Plus, this little punk believes stirring a hornet's nest will give him more notoriety. We should not play into their hands. (sorry for the mixed metaphors)

I live in Dallas and I definitely saw it, so maybe they only cut it from Pacific Time Zones after getting a couple of hours of nasty reaction from the rest of the country.
