Hey Legacy

The Quipper News Alliance (QNA) has just learned that, in an effort to start off on the right, er, correct foot with the Democrats, President Bush plans on serenading Nancy Pelosi with the following tune prior to her taking the office of House Speaker this month.

Sung to the tune of Hey Jealousy by the Gin Blossoms.

Tell me do you think it'd be all right
If I could just crash here tonight
You can see I'm in no shape for leading
And my whole base left me, so...

And you know we might not be that bad
Partisanship made me oh, so sad
If I stayed strong on immigration, though
I might not be alone

Tomorrow we can pander 'round this town
And let the press chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found
to help save face...hey legacy!

And you can trust me not to think
And not to be extreme
If you'll let me stay for two more years
I won't veto anything

Cause I don't really want to be with you
But Rove played me for a fool
If I had vetoed the McCain-Feingold bill
I would not be here with you

Tomorrow we can pander 'round this town
And let the press chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found
to help save face...hey legacy!
