The Lyrics

Quit yer caterwaulin': I'm a Republican; I do song parodies; tonight's the night of the State of the Union Address. It would have been a clear cut case of conservative parodical malpractice, or "malparodistry" if you will (and even if you won't) if I had failed to pen this. I had no choice in the matter. Having said that, I must now give all due praise to CFM990 for his song, "The Liar Sleeps Tonight" which is the inspiration for this
WE-E-E-E-E-E-E-E will shun The One away
WE-E-E-E-E-E-E-E will shun The One away

Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway

In the Chamber, the mighty Chamber
The Liar speaks tonight
In the Chamber, the august Chamber
The Liar speaks tonight

Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway

After the pillage, the Treasury's pillage
The Liar speaks tonight
Spouting swillage, such deceitful swillage
The Liar speaks tonight

Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway
Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway

Hush my people, be still my people
The Liar speaks tonight
Soon my people, comes the wrath of the people
That day The Liar weeps tonight
(Hup, hup, ho ho ho)

Woe to him, woe to him, woe to The One on that day
(Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway)
Cause WE-a-EE-HEEEEEEE will shun The One away
(Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneawy)
BRR-R-R-R-R-I-I-NG the pain and stun The One away
(Theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway, theoneaway)

WE-E-E-E-E-E-E-E will shun the One away
WE-E-E-E-E-E-E-E will stun the One away

For nights when Obama is not speaking see CFM's "The Liar Sleeps Tonight" -- In the White House, the blighted White House; The Liar sleeps tonight .. In the White House, the quiet White House, The Liar sleeps tonight

Thanks Obasturd for putting political expediancy before creating jobs (as usual). By nixing the Keystone Pipeline say goodbye to more jobs and goodbye to moving toward energy independance and GOODBYE TO THE ANTI-AMERICAN, SOCIALIST/MARXIST POS DICTATOR in November!

Wish I'd thought of this one. Wait a minute, I did, 6 years ago, when we had an ACTUAL liar in the White House: "Wake Me Up When Dissembler Ends." Anybody who believes a word of the comment above me is an idiot. http://www.amiright.com/parody/2000s/greenday248.shtml

So I'm an idiot if I think that a pipeline that would have increased the North American supply of oil to our country would have lessened our dependence on oil from the Middle East? ..??? Explain that one, Michael. And if you believe Bush is a pathological liar, but Obama isn't .. then we simply live in parallel universes and ne'er the twain shall meet

Lennie - Thanks for seizing my fallen banner. I see that the one-bombers (Like Obama, keen students of Saul Alinsky) are trashing your work without reading it. Get used to it...at least I can say I never scored anybody harshly merely because I disagreed with the politics. It will get to the point where even your non-political parodies will be ripped out of hand without even a glance. Keep writing, no matter how painful. You have ability, and your stuff is funny. ;D

Thanks, OMR. That really means a lot. I've always known I had a gift for this, but I didn't know where I ranked in the big scheme of things. And it seems to me that Amiright is THE last word in song parody, the place where the best go to post their stuff. As a for instance, how could anybody in this country be better than John Barry. So, if I'm making an impression here ...

Obama is a lame President domestically and as long as the Republicans keep on track with Obamacare and unemployment, low growth rate, and big government spending sprees- he's out in Jan '13. This clown is just cruising along, disconnected from the middle class woes, going on long vacations and now trying to promote his foreign policy achievements. But it won't matter a bit about Osama, Ghaddafi, or the Iraq pullout come Nov. People need jobs, houses, food for their families and the US military is pissed at his proposals for cutting down our armed forces to vunerable, incapable levels. Even if he can pull off a win, it won't be anywhere near a landslide this time. And if he wins, we are all doomed to self-destruction. Nice to see Mike and his opinions. We have a 300 year coal supply that is under-utilized and plenty of oil in the US and offshore. And it's still worth it to build more nuke plants. This energy dependence thing is a scam, the US has many options and can develop all of them. But Obama could care less. He made it into the history books, so he can just sit back and watch the implosion of the US with an office view- the Oval Office! My daddy once said not to do two things in life when I was a kid: don't play with matches and never vote Democrat :-)

Anyone who agrees with the second comment is either a buffoonish moron or a committed economic retard. Ever since the Democraps took over congress in the mid-term elections of Bushs' second term, the shiite has hit the fan. From 2006 to now, the liberal economic/social agenda has lowered this country to the brink of disaster. It has spawned both the Tea Party (true patriots well versed in the brilliance of the Founding Fathers) and OWS (thugs, malcontents, vandals, and Che Guevara worshippers). Bring on the NEW CIVIL WAR. Guess which pansy-weenie side will get their @$$es kicked in BIBLICAL proportions.
Keystone pipeline, Obama, Warren Buffet connection - January 24, 2012 - Report this comment
Killing the Keystone XL pipeline may help one of the world's richest men get richer. North Dakota's booming oil fields will now grow more dependent on a railroad the president's economic guru just bought.

Do you see a pattern here. About the time George Soros — Hungarian billionaire and key donor to leftist groups and the Democratic Party — invested heavily in the stock of the state-run Brazilian oil company Petrobras, President Obama was curbing U.S. offshore oil production and the U.S. Export-Import Bank announced a $2 billion loan to Petrobras to finance deep-water drilling off the pristine beaches of Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

As he was imposing curbs and moratoria on U.S. offshore drillers, President Obama wished the Brazilians well in the hope we would someday be Brazil's best oil customer.

Apparently, oil tankers coming from Brazil are better and safer than a pipeline from Canada, whose best customer we will not be if they ship their tar sands oil to China instead.

Interestingly, another billionaire, Obama economic inspiration Warren Buffett, stands to benefit from the Keystone XL pipeline delay.
Connection pt.2 - January 24, 2012 - Report this comment
As oil production ramps up in the Bakken fields of North Dakota, plans to use the pipeline to transport it have been dashed.

As a result, North Dakota's booming oil producers will have to rely even more on the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad, which Buffett just bought, to ship it to refineries.

Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has agreed to buy Burlington Northern Santa Fe in a deal valuing the railroad at $34 billion. Berkshire Hathaway already owns about 22% of Burlington Northern, and will pay $100 a share in cash and stock for the rest of the company.

North Dakota vaulted past Oklahoma and Louisiana in 2009 to be the nation's fourth-largest oil producer after Texas, Alaska and California.

Rail shipments accounted for up to 65,000 of the nearly 343,000 barrels of oil produced daily in North Dakota in December. That percentage is likely to increase.

Many of the rail shipments from the Bakken fields are being handled by BNSF Railway Co., which has more than 1,000 miles of tracks in the region.

Michael Bruce, the railroad's business development director, said BNSF could ship up 730,000 barrels of crude daily out of North Dakota "contingent on facilities being built."

North Dakota pumped a record 113 million barrels of oil in 2010. State officials estimate the state will produce 700,000 barrels daily in four to seven years.

Bottom line: Obama's got nothing against the 1% as long as they are one of his butt buddies.
