"The Man, the Myth, the McCain" by Roy Zimmerman

[thelivingfire]

I think that it’s fitting that McCain decided to use the music of a convicted child sex offender for his campaign, Chuck Berry LOL. What is up with republicans and their campaign music? “Born to run” WTF? Even Bruce was like WTF?

[Ballyhook]

I really dont like this guy

[TehMonkeyz]

nice.

[arachnophile01]

perfect ending, i must say this song will be stuck in my head for the rest of the week

[sketchydc]

I wonder if he would have done better if this was his theme song =p

[TheDcrat]

one of roy's best

[temporaldisplacement]

Makes me think of Chuck Norris ...don't know why.

[SupermarketsRevil]

Old people who get more attention than they deserve?

[SupermarketsRevil]

Because he kicks ass and takes names?

[LogicConsumedGod]

lol love this song

[TheDcrat]

I'm a liberal, and I hope palin runs in 2012

That would hand the elsction to us. She can't even name one surperme court case, and I'm more experienced than her in foreign policy.

[TheDcrat]

If you hate the vidio, why whatch it??

[Splangy1]

if I hated the video then I would have said nothing at all like my girl friend did

[ArianneHermida]

I'm a liberal and I think it would be terrible if Sarah Palin was the Republican nominee in 2012. I think we need intelligent people leading all parties.

[BrightRaven0]

Implying the existence of intelligent republicans

[qqqqqqqq]

@BrightRaven0 lol

[ArianneHermida]

@BrightRaven0 Yes, I am, and I see no problem with that.

[BrightRaven0]

@ArianneHermida HAHAHAHAHA!

and i am a unicorn!

[ArianneHermida]

@BrightRaven0

I don't know if you know this, but not all Republicans are batshit crazy, homophobic, misogynist, McCarthyist fools. There are many who are legitimately intelligent people and just have a different political leaning than you and me. To deny that group of bright people is blatantly narrow-minded.

Bigotry is probably a complaint you have about the Republican party. To that, I shall remind you that those who live in glass houses should not cast the first stone.

[silverfuck]

@ArianneHermida You're right, not all Republicans are batshit crazy, homophobic, misogynist, McCarthyist fools.

Just the people they elect into office are...

[nrevelations777]

@ArianneHermida

I'm a conservative and I think it would be terrible if Sarah Palin even tried to get nominated. That woman has no place in any office.

[ArianneHermida]

"We've won at all costs / Like the fact that we lost"

One of the best lines ever.

[Splangy1]

when it starts off it sounds like a good song for McCain but I think he would be fooled and the ending is not in faver of him at all

[MarkMystic]

Roy, you are a freakin' genius. You are a true wordsmith.

[kerranz]

So glad he lost, now I won't need my Pith helmet.

[fuzzzzzyllama]

The dramatic hairflip at the end needs to be copyrighted.

[XxAznDarknezZxX]

Awsome.

[daddyleon]

Sounds great!

THe man, the myth.. the McCain!

they should've used that :P

[oilhammer04]

McCain is not much of a conservative. He is one of the most Liberal Republican which puts him with the Democrats.

[argetfalcon]

Agreed he actually ran a very respectable campaign, until he decided to bring Palin on the ticket

[thegaythespian]

which was only done to keep the conservative wing from rioting on the convention floor, according to Schmidt, the campaign manager.  McCain wanted to pick Lieberman.

[argetfalcon]

Lieberman would have been a better choice. Why would they riot?

[thegaythespian]

Because both Lieberman isn't even a declared Republican, as far as I can remember, and McCain is a pretty liberal one, the art of a pres. ticket is balance and appealing to all wings of the party, a McCain/Lieberman ticket, while a better two people, wouldn't have done that.

[argetfalcon]

Still there were better candidates he could have chosen instead of Palin

[thegaythespian]

Whole Heartedly agreed

[fungusoflannery]

The world has not seen a political figure in a century that has been so abused, savaged, and attacked as Mrs. Palin. She represents everything that the left can't stand, and embodies what the left sees as worst in the world. Therefore, I cannot help but wholeheartedly support her... she is exactly what we need. Palin 2012

[argetfalcon]

Mayor of a twobit redneck town best known as the meth capital of Alaska. Governor of a two bit state with a population smaller than most midsized American cities. Favored by religious fanatics and gun nuts and chosen as the VP pick for a doomed campaign in the desperate attempt to shore up the extreme right wing lunatics of the party. Quickly degenerated into the punchline of a joke once she opened her mouth in public more than twice.

[argetfalcon]

ATTACKED HA! It's not like she makes it difficult. She practically begs to be make fun. I would think Republicans would want to distance themselves as far away from her as possible. And she just left office which proves she's a quitter. Number of terms served 0

And I also hope she wins the nomination because if she does she'll creamed in the election.

[fungusoflannery]

slow down... "She'll *get* creamed," "to be *made* fun *of*," etc etc....

I understand your views conflict with mine, that's fine... for the benefit of everyone participating in youtube threads, even the most violent flame should be clear...

[argetfalcon]

yeah I noticed those mistakes after I posted them

[HailCthulhu]

It's pretty stupid to support such a total idiot.

[diegopmc]

If you think you Americans need a VP whose external politics experience comes from... being able to see Russia from the shore and from being neighbors with Canada, be my guest.

[ClockworkChristmas]

I truly hope you aint trolling. Let her run i say! Let her destroy your party from the inside out like a cancer!

[Kazumaster]

I'm a liberal but I don't hate Palin. I feel sorry for her, because it must be hard to be as intellectually challenged as her. She is way too dumb to be a politician, or to have a high status of any sort. The fact that America has such idiots in positions of power is one of the main reasons I'm really glad I live in europe.

[TheDcrat]

I think that Palin needs to stay in Alaska. If you can't find gaza, and you don't that Africa is a continent, you shoundn't be VP. I don't care if you can see russia, see has the IQ of a pig with lipskick. Which is what see it.

[ritban]

grow up and think for yourself

[anubis2814]

A cadaver is a corpse used in medical studies

[Cafeeine]

and the lyric goes "like a cadaver (ick!)"

[pin5033]

what does 'kadaveric' mean?

[Kowzgalor]

He meant cadaver

[mikejohncooper]

why would you put gasoline in your exhaust pipe?

[mandocommando1987]

you are awesome!

[clintonplaza]

"He's in black and white" LOL ha ha this guy is 2 funny!

[rosepearljanis]

give em hell roy!

[pfte1]

You remind us of Sondheim, if he sang, played guitar and did stand-up. Wonderful.

Love,

The Singing Hockey Mom and the Piano Playing Moose

[thescowlingschnauzer]

That's "pith".

[ZachValkyrie]

are you related to Mark mcKinney by any chance? the resemblance is uncanny...

[Callica4ever]

Am I wrong or did I see this video on actual TV last week?

[timcan3]

thats not even funny. u people have a stupid sense of humor.

[Theoneleon]

Its not trying to be funny its WIT, idiot.

[squiigle]

lol, I like how the ad on the page is advertising the movie W. xP

[arfacat]

dear roy ... this is trg myself talking ... u clearly bin a reasonable student of tom lehrer, but if i read ur meaning, u are treating the tweedledarkbread/tweedlewhiteb­read pair as meaningful ... hey, both loaves bin leached of every vitamin and mineral known to georgeS bush (yes, plural) ... the only real issue is randygate, but i gots to confess to a personal bias at this level

[jesusnthedaisychain]

Sweet Moses, I think that about a third of my neurons short-circuited. Are you trying to make a point? Could you try to write in a coherent manner without using the internet gutter-speech?

[jbombsmoker]

You need better neurons - or perhaps an actual sense of humor.

[voltage17121712]

Well put.

[kitejav]

Cool story, bro.

[bobbarker951]

whhhaaaa?

[iamsime]

another good one. when you coming to the uk?

[sumarie22]

Aw man, that was great till you got to the last line! You could've left out that little slap. But very perceptive!

[AngryPirateProd]

His middle name is Sidney, sounds like he'll be a puppet for the aussies. McCain is a secret Australian!

[ArachEye]

AARGH WE DON'T WANT HIM!!!!!

:P

[TaderTot]

Roy you have done it again, this is indeed made of pure win.

[Tassadarky]

Heh! The funny thing is that (at the time of this posting) there is an add up in the corner for McCain / Palin '08!!!

"The man, the myth, the McCain!!!" (Kinda reminds me of 'A man, a plan, Panama', 'cept it doesn't work backwards)

[dmitriwillguard]

Except that doesn't work backwards either. Not as a proper palindrome, anyway...

[Yottabee]

The pithy myth indeed! Thanks once again, Roy! Phenomenal!!

[opinionhead444]

You, along with Colbert and Stewart, I call the news. Everything that passes itself off as news is really satire.

That is my theory anyway.

Good one brother.

[rissaofthesaiyajin]

opinionhead444: Your theory is intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

[arcannobi]

Good one, Roy! ;)

[goldfinchmom]

Wow!! Great stuff. You have a new subscriber.

[FrankyBabes]

Goddamned superb - yet again I better understand American politics.

[lucidatheist]

Awesome!

[Coreythecheese]

MAgical. Antoher classic Roy!

5 stars, favourites!

[blossom420]

[mrsmoose1478]

Nicely done as usual Roy! Hope to see you next time you're at the Throckmorton.

Sarah

[thielenm]

good guitar playing

[neohillbilly]

yeah boy.

[LatinD]

Damn. We could use one of yours in my country. You're the kind of guy that gives me hope regarding Americans in general.

Hope you guys win for once.

[Ocker3]

now That is a return to form for our boy

[talentissexy]

Good crowd. Musta been a fun show. Sounds great!

[semiliteratedgod]

wow I like it, good shit:)

[Safely]

Ugh, I hate them both.

Good song as always, though.

[intrepgun]

fuckin a. politicians are a whole 'nother world away from reality. people that get into fights about who's less evil and all that are fucking ridiculous.

i say live your life as much as you can without government involvement whatsoever and don't be afraid to point out all the horrors they bring on. just remember you have the choice as to how it all effects you. :)

[kaburto1966]

Thanks for sharing your music.

[anmoose]

Fantastic, Roy! I hate to keep making this comparison, but I will anyway. :-) Your manipulation of the language is amazingly Tom Lehrer-ish. I love it!

Moosie

[CousinoMacul]

You nailed his complexion alright.  Great!

[edwardwoelke]

cadaverick! hee hee

[pyrrho314]

[TheAmazingAtheist]

[HundKaiser]

[lorelaifan]

"He knew Moses I think" :D
