If you are a political junkie, you have to love the Flaming Lips controversy, but you got to love the moonbat reactions even more.

You know the short story: rockers The Flaming Lips go to the Capitol. One member shows up wearing a commie t-shirt and House members protest by voting down a resolution proclaiming one of their songs the official rock and roll tune. Governor Henry, whose only sighting until recently had been on milk cartons, trumps the House and signs an executive order fixing the slight. All Hades breaks loose.
