SAN FRANCISCO-President Barack Obama was greeted by a group a singing left-wing hecklers at a recent fund raiser in San Francisco. The group was protesting the government’s treatment of Bradley Manning, a former soldier, who is being detained and charged with leaking military information through WikiLeaks.
Here is the song:
Dear Mr. President we honor you today sir
Each of us brought you $5,000
It takes a lot of Benjamins to run a campaign
I paid my dues, where’s our change?
We’ll vote for you in 2012, yes that’s true
Look at the Republicans – what else can we do
Even though we don’t know if we’ll retain our liberties
In what you seem content to call a free society
Yes it’s true that Terry Jones is legally free
To burn a people’s holy book in shameful effigy
But at another location in this country
Alone in a 6×12 cell sits Bradley
23 hours a day is night
The 5th and 8th Amendments say this kind of thing ain’t right
We paid our dues, where’s our change?
