we band of Blue Dogs;
For he to-day that gives his vote to me
Shall be my bitch...
While some of us will always prefer classics of American rhetoric, such as Lincoln's "Your Claim Has Been Denied" Address...
...
If we can just shut the nosy, quibbling socialists the Hell up, the world will little note, nor long remember, what we did here, but can never forget what profits we made here.
It is for us, the bloated plutocrats, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which Fox News, our pet Congresscritters and the low-wattage Teabaggers have, thus far, so nobly carried on.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us - that from these soon-to-be-uninsured rubes we take increased devotion to the increased shareholder value for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion - that we here highly resolve that these soon-to-be denied meatbags shall not have died in vain; that this nation shall have a new birth of profits; and that this government of the corporation, by the corporation, for the corporation, shall not perish from the earth.
...there's no denying the inspirational power of Andy Cobb's rousing call to take to the barricades in defense of the flower of American corporate personhood against the predations of grubby, breakable human beings.

Dude, thanks so much for posting this.
Realizing that the importance of this post sails gruntlessly over the heads of the very people who desperately NEED to recognize and understand the problems that continue to challenge us because of their failure to recognize and understand the problems that challenge us.
Sometimes, the not-so-subtle irony of it all really sucks.
