Wow...those *are* some incendiary lyrics.
What was the audience and Jay's reaction to the song?

> Did anyone catch Bright Eyes' performance on the Tonight Show Monday
night?  He did a song called "When The President Talks To God".  I was
amazed that the usually bland Leno let him perform such a incendiary song.
For a moment I thought I was watching the Smothers Brothers Show in '68.
Perhaps Jay isn't interested in the red states any more.  The studio version
of the song is available for free at iTunes.
