An example lyric: "I'm so full of H-A-T-R-E-D, I'm bitter and mailgned. You've got me P-I-S-S-E-D Off, I'm angry most of the time. Why don't you G-O T-O H-E-Double L you...(umm I better quit here for the sake of decorum!)". Hey, this describes how I feel about Obama being president, imagine that!

Although that one is kind of Ike-and-Tina-ish, so maybe not the countriest choice.
