This weekend the hashtag #RepublicanSongs was trending on Twitter. (For those of you unfamiliar with Twitter trending, it means that someone tweeted an idea—in this case the retitling of a popular song to reflect right-wing thinking, tagged with the hash tag #RepublicanSongs. So many people contributed their own ideas that the hashtag dominated Twitter for a day). Here are ten of the countless Republican Songs I spent my weekend—I mean, took a few minutes here and there out of my busy social calendar—coming up with. As I consider myself not only a Twitter artist but a Twitter curator, below my own titles I present a sampler of great Republican Songs tweeted by the greater Twitter community.

#RepublicanSongs from me:

1. My Country ’Tis of Me (My Country ’Tis of Thee)

2. The Times Should Not B-Changin’ (The Times They Are A-Changin’)

3. Fetus, I Need Your Lovin’ (Baby, I Need Your Lovin’ )

4. 99 Red Buffoons (99 Red Balloons)
