I learned from my tumblr dashboard this a.m. that Romney has been using K’naan’s “Wavin’ Flag” at campaign events.
You know, the “Wavin’ Flag” that includes these lyrics:
So many wars, settling scores
Bringing us promises, leaving us poor
I heard them say, love is the way
Love is the answer, that’s what they say,
But look how they treat us, make us believers
We fight their battles, then they deceive us
Try to control us, they couldn’t hold us
Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldier
Sounds like a great choice for a Republican campaign. K’naan has already publicly stated that Romney, etc… doesn’t have his permission but even went a step farther to say that if the Obama campaign wants to use it, he is cool with that.
