Question on Political Humor

[emilynghiem]

Obama Gangsta Style - Lyrics for Video Contest

I looked up both the Mitt Romney Style and Obama Style parody videos
by collegehumor and Eric "Smooth-E", but did not think either of them was funny.

I wrote my own lyrics (linked above), but when I share them with friends,
my conservative friends get the Constitution but take it so seriously they get what I'm saying but don't necessarily think it's funny. Do any liberals out there, Obama supporters,
think this is funny -- to make fun of the President coming across as an arrogant
clueless Chicago gangster who can write whatever law he thinks will serve political purposes at the expense of the Constitution and taxpayers? Or even as a spoof or crack at Republicans exaggerating the worst fears and image that Conservatives HAVE of Obama? I thought someone might see the irony in some of these same things were said of Bush overriding the Constitution. Anybody?

Please post feedback and explain your background and leanings and what
you see in this, if it's funny or ironic, or mean or unfair or what. I'd like to know how
different ppl from different political perspectives see the humor and caricature here!

I will try to produce it as a music video in the future, right now it's just the lyrics.
Thanks!

"Gangsta Style"

Obama Gangsta Style
Gangsta Style

Under the Constitution I don't need to follow
There's something called the Bill of Rights that I just rendered hollow
I'll make you pay for health-care so we all end up on welfare
I have no - clue - and I don't care

I'm a Socialist
Instead of teaching equal independent business sense
I'll take our greatest wealth and waste it till we're penniless
While I retire at your expense, cuz that's what justice is
To this Socialist

Fourteenth Amend-ment
Equal Protec-tions
Aren't for rich folks NO
(Don't need their votes) NO

The NRA and
Second Amend-ment
Can kiss my throne
Cuz I've got drones
Chicago ethics are the only way to go go oh hell no

Obama Gangsta Style
Gangsta Style
O O O God No Obama Gangsta Style
Gangsta Style
No No Just Say No
No more Gangsta Style

Hey, A-C-A sux
O O O O bama Gangsta Style
Hey, A-C-A sux
No No Hell No (A-C-A Go A-way)

Judges and Courts, should be equally defending
Best interests of ALL people that the State is representing
Consensus takes too long when half the Nation is dissenting
So my own - laws - I'm inventing

I'm the President
I'll issue orders without voting if you don't consent
Silly checks and balances through Congress are a detriment
Why keep a contract with the people and the government
I can circumvent

The NRA and
Second Amend-ment
Can suck my bone
Cuz I've got drones

Fourteenth Amend-ment
Equal Protec-tions
Aren't for you folks
Your law's a joke
And-I'll laugh from my Hawaii Retirement Ho ho ho ho home

Obama Gangsta Style
Gangsta Style
O O O hell No Obama Gangsta Style
Gangsta Style
No No Just say No
No more Gangsta Style

Hey, A-C-A sux
O O O O bama Gangsta Style
Hey, A-C-A sux
No No Hell No (A-C-A Go A-way)

Look inside, the Texas Bill of Rights:
People have authority that's where the law resides
Exercise, your First Amendment rights
Not to follow some regime you don't believe is right

You can save the Nation
No more Gangsta Style

Hey, A-C-A sux
O O O O bama Gangsta Style
Hey, A-C-A sux
No No Just Say No
No to Gangsta Style
No More Gangsta Style

Not funny.

Reeks of the same sadness that surrounds Truthmatters.
