Has anybody ever done a 'Fortunate Son' video montage?
I keep waiting to see this on MTV.

Very easy.

Take the song. Get someone famous to cover it (hence a new relase - give the money to the hurricane survivors) or get Fogerty to re-record it or something (I prefer his version, though I haven't heard Pearl Jam's - have htey done a video???).

Put together a nice little montage of W's finest (cough) moments.

Air repeatedly.

I played this song for days on end after the 'election' of 04... driving around in Europe blasting it our my windows. Made me feel better, anyway.

Just in case you need to be refreshed:

Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white, and blue
And when the band plays "Hail to the Chief"
They point the cannon right at you

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand,
Lord, dont they help themselves
But when the tax man comes to the door,
Lord the house looks like a rummage sale

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes,
Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them, "How much should we give?"
They only answer "More! More! More!"

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one
