I'm the decider
From the HuffingtonPost.com

It didn’t take songwriters long to lampoon Bush’s instantly infamous “I’m the decider” remark. Check out this one, which is burning up the rankings at the Huffington Post.


Huffington Post:

[lyrics]

I am me and Rummy’s he, Iraq is free and we are all together
See the world run when Dick shoots his gun, see how I lie
I’m Lying…

Sitting on my own brain, waiting for the end of days
Corporation profits, Bloody oil money
I’m above the law and I’ll decide what’s right or wrong

I am the egg head, I’m the Commander, I’m the Decider
Koo-Koo-Kachoo

This is one of the the best political satires of the year.  I’ve played it a dozen times and am still rolling on the floor.  I’ve sent the link to everyone I can think of.  Absolutely perfect!
