Grammy Award-winning music artist Ray Stevens has recorded a song and video that is fast becoming the anthem of the Tea Party Movement.

“We the People” is about Obamacare and the health-care reform bills that have passed both houses of Congress.

The lyrics express a comic, but pointed warning to members of Congress: “You vote Obamacare, we’re going to vote you out of there. We the People have awakened to your tricks. You vote to let this pass, you’re going to be out on your (sound of foghorn).” ...

Yep, I checked it out and “The New Battle Of New Orleans” is still there and I just watched it. It’s great. Thanks : )

“I like Ahab the Arab.
Leftists will probably start attaching Stevens as “racist” for that song now.”

A few months back, Obama honored Mel Brooks (amongst others) at the Kennedy Center. If the producer of “Blazing Saddles” is acceptable, Ahab the Arab passes muster.

I liked the “We the People” song that incorporated the March on Washington. I’m not sure who sang it.

I’ve always been partial to “Osama Yo Mama”, myself.

Your problem is that you are thinking logically. The very act of speaking (or singing) against Obama in any way makes one a racist.

--likewise,--I first heard it lip-synched by a rodeo clown at the Belle Fourche, SD 4th July rodeo and about fell out of my bleacher seat laughing.

--one of the above posters probably thinks it's a tribute to telephone stalkers--

He also did an incredible rendition of Misty( normally a musty old waltz song) and put a zing into it and got a bunch of rewards. He can be quite a serious talent as well!

Thanks Lucy Jo. Lloyd has our anthem song. Nothing against Ray Stevens. He is great; but Lloyd is our lead anthem song.
