And the winner is....
In Bill Bennett's Morning in America "Sandy Berger Lies" song parody contest, the judges have selected a winner from the more than 1,000 deserving entries (not counting Mark Steyn's three, in a category by themselves). Bill's contest was a stroke of genius, unleashing an outpouring of creativity, of humor stoked by anger. I was honored to be tapped to serve as a judge -- I've always wanted to be a judge. And the winner is by Ron Allen:
Sandy Berger CanCongratulations to Ron and all the many deserving contestants. I will be posting some of the runners-up over the weekend. I think Ron's terrific performance may have have put him over the top with the contest judges. John Hinderaker will be posting the MP3 presently. Ladies and gentlemen, listen up!

Bill and Hillary lookin' for a legacy
But the national archives held a vast conspiracy
They thought about a plan
Asking who would be their man
Who can we now trust to crack this quandary?
Sandy Berger can
Sandy Berger can
He can stuff that troubling history into his socks and pants
Now Bill and Hillary met with Sandy Berger.
They talked about the plan...now it’s not murder.
They gave him all he'd need.
They thought he could succeed.
It simple, just go in and get those files.
Sandy Berger can
Sandy Berger can
He’ll stuff those troubling files into his socks and pants.
The day had come and it was time to do it.
If he is caught the press can misconstrue it.
It’s not that big a deal, it had a presidential seal.
And he said he’s sorry so that ends it.
Sandy Berger can
Sandy Berger can
He’ll get us eight more years
So we can implement our plan
JOHN adds: OK, here it is, finally! Don't miss it, it's great.
