One has to say that very few political songs hits it's mark as accurately as this little ditty does.
Judging from the reaction of the right wing media I think it hurt a great deal. So much vitriol directed at a song has to mean that the song hit it's target with deadly accuracy.
And as a huge Charlton Heston fan I think he would have laughed his head off at the song. But it was wonderful to see the right wing media being reduced to apoplexy. Also the song is pretty darn good.
It has good rhythm, clever lyrics, good musicians and Carrey can carry a tune. If only one person stops to think that anybody who needs to prove his maturity with an semi automatic or automatic weapon is really only proving their immaturity.
