The American Tea Party Anthem

I’m reliably informed that this is for real and not a parody:

One sociologically fascinating aspect of this tune is that it includes a little attack on those people who are always going around trying to silence critics of Obama’s economic stimulus plan by calling them racists. I’m not, of course, aware of any actual instances of people suggesting that stimulus critics are motivated by racism. But this idea that all critics of Obama’s policy are being smeared as racists seems extremely popular on the right.

And that, in turn, is just part of a more generalized phenomenon in which you virtually never see a conservative get worked up and personally outraged about an actual instance of racism but the slightest hint of “political correctness” run amok drives many conservatives into a rage.
