Dubya: A Rock & Roll Fantasy

Imagine this:

You are one of Bush's advisors, and in order to combat his sinking ratings, you suggest that at his next press conference, while answering reporters' queries, that he break into a lip-synched (or alternatively if you wish, actually sung by him) performance of a certain song with complete musical backing (and choreography/dancers if needed). Desperate to try anything at this point to raise the percentages, Dubya enthusiastically agrees, and you say that you'll put it all together for the next conference.

What song/number/routine would you choose?

My first and foremost choice for this would be, without a doubt, Stray Cats' "Rock This Town". I don't know if it would raise morale and confidence any--okay, probably not--but still, I can't shake the visions...

"come sail away" styx

especially the "onboard i'm the captain" part, that's totally him.

Neil Young's "Fuckin' Up" comes to mind

I'd keep going with a Styx meddley and have him open up with "Renegade" then into "Come Sail Away".

If he did sing "Rock This Town" it would have to have Kurt Russell driving around the briefing room in a Jeep, firing a machine gun around.

Wait I got it - "Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do" - sung to Dick Cheney

Sorry, ABOUT Dick Cheney.

How about "This Is The Shittest Concept for an ILM Thread Ever"? That's a good 'un.
