It was nearly unimaginable back then: Israelis and Palestinians shaking hands on the White House lawn. It's even harder to imagine now. Remember September of '93 in this Vintage Rick!

O Come All Ye Tuneful

By Rick Horowitz

It's the most melodious time of the year -- so chill the eggnog, snuggle up to your loved ones and raise your voices in holiday glee-hee-hee. Ready? Let's do it!

They're beginning to clobber Lott for Christmas,
Trent will have to go,
He was honoring ancient Strom,
Suddenly dropped a bomb,
A fireball -- and all on video!

They're beginning to bury Lott for Christmas,
Such a troglodyte,
He can grovel on BET,
But the blushing GOP
Wants him out...of...sight.

O Kissinger, O Kissinger,
You would not name your clients,
O Kissinger, O Kissinger,
You would not name your clients.

An honest man, as all can see,
Just brimming with integrity,
O Kissinger, O Kissinger,
This isn't rocket science.

Angels hear his latest sigh,
Smiling bravely, feeling sad,
Hard-Luck Albert says goodbye,
Conquered by a hanging chad.
Go-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-re-a.
Palm Beach County K.O.

So pesky, Fidel is,
Still on top in Cuba,
You bum, you,
You scum, you,
We strongly condemn.
Thumbing your nose and holding tight to power,
O why must we deplore him?
Let Florida abhor him!
O can't we just ignore him?
I'm so bored.

Deck the Wall Street fraud and folly,
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la,
Take advice from Grandma Polly,
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la,
While the S&P keeps shocking,
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la,
Hide your money in your stocking,
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la!

Jingle and jangle and dangle Iraq,
Jangle 'em good the way that we should,
Groping and hoping for weapons of war,
That's the thing that we're searching for.

Jingle and jangle and dangle Iraq,
Jangle 'em rough and jangle 'em tough,
Perfect distraction, a fight we can win --
Let the fun begin!

Said the Ashcroft to the little man,
"Do you hear what I hear,
Hiding on your phone, little man?
Do you hear what I hear?
A tap, a tap,
No one beats the rap,
And we keep expanding the trap,
And we keep...expanding...the trap."
