Drill Here, Drill Now: Sing it loud, sing it proud

Really. Country star Aaron Tippen and Newt Gingrich, the loveable former speaker of the House, introduced Tippin's new stab at changing public policy through music (a folk song?) Monday on Fox's Sean Hannity Show.

The title, of course, is Drill Here, Drill Now.

Our only regret is that Buzz didn't catch this gem yesterday. (actual chorus: "Drill here, drill now/
How 'bout some oil from our own soil that belongs to us anyhow/No more debatin', we're tired of waitin', everybody shout out loud/Drill here, drill now.")

Say, that is catchy. You can check it out here.
