Favorite Song #3 - Victim - Candi Staton

Oh don't even get me STARTED on how much I love this disco-era ditty.  Miss Candi always sings her broken little heart out ...

You gave me a brand new reason

To start fixing up my face

Having cocktails at your favorite place

A table just for two

Got rid of loneliness

Now that I have you

I became a victim

Of the very song I sing

NOM's Solution For Gay Marriage - KILL GAY PEOPLE

As you may or may not know, the National Organization for Morons Marriage (AKA "The Hate Hags") are currently on a nationwide bus van tour "protecting" opposite marriage.  And since they literally haven't attracted more than 3 dozen supporters (max) at each stop, NOM has taken the opportunity to play victim to all the hateful "homofacists" who outnumber their supporters at NOM rallies - saying OUR side is filled with hate, not theirs.  NOM allegedly even slashed their own tires, then sent out an "emergency" fundraising email to help raise money for their cause.  Whatever happened to Triple-A Roadside Assistance, you scuzzbags?!?

But two can play the "victim" game.  Check out the sign that one man brought to a NOM rally in Indianapolis...

OH MY GOD, ALL OPPOSITE MARRIAGE SUPPORTERS WANT TO LYNCH GAY PEOPLE.  HELP!!!! HELP!!!!!!

See, the "victim" card can be a two-way street - and we can play that game too.  More information at Joe.My.God, who's been providing excellent coverage of NOM and their Tour de FAIL.

This is MY SONG!  Candi Staton is better known for Young Hearts Run Free, but I prefer Victim.

"I became a victim of the very song I sing" - sing it, Girl!!
