Looks like we won’t have Sarah Palin to kick around anymore (Oh, God, please let her be gone for good). Today, Sarah “The Quitter” Palin is no longer the Governor of Alaska. In her memory, my friend Wayne created a parody which is well worth reading. Here, Pick Wayne’s Brain and enjoy.
In honor of Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Rush Limbaugh
Archie provided this parody sung to the tune of “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus”.
We saw Sarah kissing Joe the Plumber
Underneath the bleachers, late last night.She took off her glasses
As his hands squeezed her firm masses
They were smitten by each others looks and intellectual vastness
Then we saw Sarah stroking Joe the Plumber
On top of his hairless head so smooth
Oh what a laugh it would have been,
Had Todd showed up in his snow machineWith Sarah kissing Joe last night.
Another one from the artist with many talents, Breezy.
Silver Bells
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there’s a feeling
Of Christmas.Children laughing,
People passing,
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you’ll hear.Obama won! Obama won!
It’s election time for the Country.
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing.
Soon it’s Inaugural day.
So let’s dance 8)
Today, while I was shopping, I overheard a conversation between two young shoppers, a man and a woman. After they greeted each other, the man said, “I just got laid off last week. That s**ked”. The woman responded, “I’m sorry to hear that. I understand that there will be another wave of layoffs announced on Monday.” That was terrible news to hear.
Congress had no problem handing out $700 billion to Wall Street so that banks could free up credit. Then before heading home to spend the holidays with their families, the Republicans turned their backs on workers and refused to grant a loan to the American automobile industry. As a result, many other industries will face layoffs because they do business with the “Big 3 Auto Makers”. This is known as “trickle down disaster”. If the banks that received the bailout opened up the credit market like they were suppose to do, American car makers may not have needed to go begging to Congress. Instead, the banks are hoarding this money which is causing our economy to come to a screeching halt. It is bad everywhere except for the fat cat Congressmen that aren’t a bit worried about the economy because they will be getting a raise when they return in January. As for the rest of us, well, we can eat cake and take drugs that numb our senses.
Here’s a parody that may help put a smile on our faces authored by that man of many talents, Breezy.
God Rest ye Merry Gentleman
God rest ye bankers one and all
Let nothing you dismay.
For George Bush your sav-i-or
Is giving cash away
With no strings attached to it
Wall Street will shout Hooray!
Oh… tidings of billions of bucks
you’re outa luck
Oh… tidings of billions of bucks.
Now ’tis the time to celebrate
For we’ll still get our bonus.
Bad loans we needn’t contemplate
Now that the gov’ment owns us.
Without creating one new job
We’ve had it all our way.
Oh… tidings of billions of bucks
it’s not enough
Oh… tidings of billions of bucks.
Do to job insecurity and the credit crunch, Santa may not be bringing many gifts this year so Santa thought we might all appreciate hearing him play the guitar.
Time for another Christmas song parody. This one is sung to the tune of Good King Wenceslas and was authored by K. Ferandan.
Bad King George looks down his nose
On the Constitution,
Turn his back on children’s health,
Stem cells, and pollution.
Likes to start preemptive wars;
He invents the reason.
Anyone who questions him
Is accused of tre-ea-son.
He thinks he’s a holy man,
Also patriotic.
From the outside looking in,
It’s more like he’s psychotic.
Thinks the voice he hears is God’s,
Granting absolution.
Careful George, or you’ll wind up
In an institu-uu-tion.
