Here's What Obama Should be Singing :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Alex (United States), Feb 6, 2009 at 11:29

Oddly, "My Country Tis of Thee" was sung at the inauguration by Aretha Franklin, whose best known song was "Respect."

Haha, very pointed observation, but I think President Obama's deferential posturings here would be even better suited to, "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman."

No, it's not sexist and yes, it's funny.

Yes it is.
