(103) Meg for Mayor Sing-Along

Meg continues her quest to become Mayor with nothing less than a campaign song (sorry, I didn't write any music for it).

I was thinking of Irving Berlin's "I Like Ike" from Call Me Madam. I used the slogan "I Like Dyke" for years...

Then something struck me: wait a minute, did I get that one from Lenny Bruce? Years earlier I'd seen the movie Lenny. Is there where I got it? I could've sworn at the time it was original. Once doubted, I stopped using the slogan. But not before I got some good mileage out of it.

A cursory google search turned up nothing about Lenny Bruce with the phrase.
