In more music news, CNN is reporting that this week at a GOP conference meeting, Republicans were shown the following clip of a video parody:

The video, created by Peter Cowman, a recent University of Washington grad, replaces the words in the Lady Gaga hit “Just Dance” – the refrain has been changed to “Just Tax.”

Rep. Dave Reichert (R-WA) showed the video in an effort to encourage his colleagues “to get young people involved using new media,” noting that his district is home to a cluster of technology companies.

Reichert’s colleague, Mike Pence (R-IN) admitted “that very few members were familiar with the original Lady Gaga song.” I’m shocked!

And yes, my dad is scratching his head at this one. Dad, Lady Gaga is techno – or as we like to say at home, “post-1812.”

Apparently, the IRS is trying to relate to the current generation. No, they’re not texting you – yet. But they are on YouTube. Here, Linda Stiff (acting IRS Commish – no jokes about her name) talks about rebate checks – apparently Alan Thicke was unavailable:
