READ BEFORE COMMENTING PLEASE.
-I am of course being facetious with some of the footage syncing choices - I started out with the intention of only finding dryly related footage before I stumbled upon some more humorous (albeit stretchy) choices.
-The song is not supposed to be completely true. If you take what I'm saying as if I'm telling it as fact, then I assume you are no better than those who buy into the attack ads and whatsuch that ooze from the ears of both parties.
-I am not a professional video producer. The idea was simply to create a montage to go with the song.
-Ignorance is the foundation of modern America. I am committed to changing this. Any uninformed views from anybody will not be tolerated.
Anybody that comments on anything already outlined in this section cedes their right to be reasoned with and may or will be mercilessly mocked.

That being said:

I Chose a Girl (a parody of I Kissed a Girl) is the first single on Youtube by The Liberal Bias, a left-leaning (mostly) parody band dealing with current issues in politics. The Liberal Bias, founded in 2007 as the side project of Incompetentia. More information will be forthcoming.

Special thanks to everybody who helped or attempted to help with the cobbling together of the video.

Lyrics:

This was not the way I planned
Not my intention
Polls got so far, out of hand
Lost my discretion
It's not what, I'm used to
Just want the female vote
I've only once met you
But you'll get attention

I chose a girl and they liked it
Guess they don't mind a gimmick
I chose a girl just to try it
I hope Mitt Romney don't mind it
With values and five kids, she's right
Don't mean I think she's too bright
I chose a girl and they liked it
They liked it

No, Joe the Plumber don't know your name
It doesn't matter,
You'll say Obama is to blame
For this disaster,
Suppose that, VPs could
See Russia from their place
Have you done what you should
With Troopergate

I chose a girl and they liked it
But they say she's not a maverick
I chose a girl just to try it
I hope moderates won't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I think she's quite right
I chose a girl and they liked it
They liked it

Her interviews are laughable
Her far right record is trouble
They say she'll run the next cycle
But for now she has lost it
What have I done, this time, my friends

I chose a girl and they liked it
But they banished her to the Arctic
I chose a girl just to try it
But the swing states wouldn't buy it
It was so wrong
She made us fight
But I'm still a Senator, right?
I chose a girl and despite it
I liked it

[burntflybog]

props. can you do it in a mccain-like voice?

[Incompetentia]

That was the original intent, but I was not able to pull it off so well (especially in the upper range of the song) with the horrendous pitch correction from the original song. Thanks though!
