Yes, it seems there's so much to do in Washington we can hardly fit it all in. Or keep track.
With a little inspiration from Johnny Cash, here's a song that runs down the hands-on agenda of our busy, busy President:
I imagine this is what Billy Joel felt like when he was laboring over "We Didn't Start the Fire..."
And I can't believe no one had ever photoshopped Obama and Johnny Cash together. Someone had to be the first.
Here...if you want to peek...are the lyrics:
| Doing everything man
All that I can bring man Rulin' like a king man Got to take my swing man Time is trickling man Doing everything Stem cells, education Doing everything man | Deficit SCHIP First European trip Broadband, DTV Showin' love for Kennedy Speech time Colorado, Indiana, Carolina Ohio, California, Florida, Ottowa Morgage holders, auto-makers, parachutin' profit takers Teacher pay fight crime compromise, no time! Doing everything man Doing everything man |

Dense and full of references! This is the sort of thing that I loved on the Friday broadcasts!
This is very clever and funny. Nice work.
