Wasn't going to bother, not being a Judy Garland fan but then read this:

"Tasteless this campaign may be, but it's freedom, democracy and market forces in action. Better yet, some of the royalties go to the estate of lyricist EY "Yip" Harburg, the proud leftie ("Yip" was derived from the acronym for the Young People's Socialist League) who wrote Brother, Can You Spare a Dime? and was driven out of Hollywood by the Red Scare blacklist. Ding dong to that."

Now just waiting for the Daily Mail to name and shame me so I get sacked in the name of freedom.
