Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean has decided to go on the attack against Supreme Court Justice nominee Samuel Alito, even before his confirmation hearings have started. Dean sent out a press release on Wednesday, Jan. 4, calling Sam Alito all kinds of evil.
That’s why I made this funny animation I call “Dean’s Song.” (Yes, I titled the cartoon “Dean’s Song” even though the song in it is titled “Sam’s Song.”)
UPDATE: For related coverage, please see the satirical Alito Hearing Comics!


An instant classic! I predict this will get linked to all over the blogosphere and you’ll become the new JibJab.
That was pretty good.
They call it “Dean’s Song”
Well, actually, they call it “Sam’s Song”; when Bing Crosby recorded it back in 1950, it didn’t occur to him to retitle it “Bing’s Song” — or, for that matter,…
That is great!
OUT-FREAKIN’-STANDING!
[…] No really, Howard Dean and Sam Alito sing a duet! […]
Priceless! Expect kudos from the right and moronic comments about racism from the left.
Great job.
Bravo!
What an absolute RIOT! Fantastic!
Dean’s Song
To commemorate Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean’s decision to go on the attack against Supreme Court Justice nominee Samuel Alito, before his confirmation hearings have even started, Sean Gleeson whipped up a little animation called …
Outstanding! I think, however, that Dean’s mouth should be a little bigger to give it that “lifelike” look. Just Kidding! Great job! Wish I had this kind of talent.
Sam’s Song
Cranky at Six Meat Buffet points out Dean’s Song, a Sean Gleeson production.
And, before you ask, it’s not that kind of joke.
…
Let The Battle Begin
Earlier this week, DNC Chairman Howard Dean came out with this diatribe against Judge Samuel Alito’s nomination to the Supreme Court.
In response, Sean Gleeson created this musical duet between the mouth of Vermont and the Judge from New Jersey. …..
Wonderful stuff! I hope it gets wired all over the net!
Dean’s Song
Hillarious. Go now and be in awe….
An instant Classic! I don’t know what I liked more, the bat, the pinks, or the YEE-OWW! part. I see it ratcheting up the charts!
If only politicians actually harmonized this well
Howard Dean and Sam Alito really get the chance to give the public a song and dance! (Paraphrasing Tom Lehrer.) Animation by Sean Gleeson. Also found a link to this clip on Sean’s site. Have no explanation for it, but it does seem like more evidence …
Hahahahaaaaaaa! Sean, that was great. Are you sure you’re not my son? Oh, yeah, I already asked you that. Great work!
Ummmm… Yes, I know this is a dum question but where’s the link to the download???
Nicely done!
You’re Killing me………
Superb piece of work! Meanwhile, despite the harmonizing, in a fair fight (especially one that I or any other fair person refereed) Sam could whup Howard’s butt im the first round!!
Excelsior (aka Sean’s Dad)
Sorry. Not even close to Jibjab.
Kickass job, Sean. Even the libs I showed it to laughed their asses off.
The Bush vs. Kerry Jibjab animation (This Land Is Your Land) was great, but every satirical animation Jibjab has done since then has sucked.
