Neil Young's Impeachment Song on Fox

Drudge is linking to an *exclusive* Fox News Story with the lyrics of Neil Young's new song, 'Impeach the President' from the album, 'Living with War." Fox say Young's "nay-sayers will decry him as a Canadian. Others will call him unpatriotic or treasonous. But there are just as many fans of Neil Young who will cite him as a political poet, a hero, and a troubadour working in the most traditional vein of American music." The song will be available for download on Friday:
Let's impeach the president for lying
And leading our country into war
Abusing all the power that we gave him
And shipping all our money out the door
He's the man who hired all the criminals
The White House shadows who hide behind closed doors
And bend the facts to fit with their new stories
Of why we have to send our men to war
Let's impeach the president for spying
On citizens inside their own homes
Breaking every law in the country
By tapping our computers and telephones
What if Al Qaeda blew up the levees
Would New Orleans have been safer that way
Sheltered by our government's protection
Or was someone just not home that day?
Let's impeach the president
For hijacking our religion and using it to get elected
Dividing our country into colors
And still leaving black people neglected
Thank god he's racking down on steroids
Since he sold his old baseball team
There's lot of people looking at big trouble
But of course the president is clean
Thank God

Did Young sign an exclusive with Fox? If so, that's brilliant.

The man can really play some guitar when he wants to. And he can write a decent song, sometimes. And he can sorta sing.

But a penetrating thinker or shrewd analyst of politics or policy?

Oh and by the way, I must be mistaken, but isn't this the blog where I read the following:

"Why in the hell is former TV personality Monica Crowley being asked to comment on Iran??"

(That being of course, Monica "PhD. in International Affairs from Columbia University, (incl. two master's degrees), presidential foreign policy adviser, and term member of the Council on Foreign Relations" Crowley.)
