45. I thought it was hysterical...

I thought Miley Cyrus was a useless idiot for her "twerk" brouhaha a few weeks ago.

Now that she's parlayed it into this, I think friggin' genius girl.

I was laughing out loud throughout. I loved when Boehner "riding" Uncle Sam flat on his back. I cracked up when I saw Obama watching in horror through the curtains. I ended up watching several times.

My only criticism is they should have painted Boehner a little more orange. But the take on him was perfect.

Is the clip in the OP supposed to be a parody of something? MNBrewer Oct 2013 #24
It is mocking a current political event, do you fail to notice these things? Rex Oct 2013 #35
Of course it was mocking a current political event, but that's hardly an answer to the question MNBrewer Oct 2013 #36
Yea I know what it is, so the joke went over your head. Rex Oct 2013 #38

The orginal video for the song is stupid. but this as practically a shot for shot parody is clever Orangepeel Oct 2013 #22

I get it - Boehner is a contemptible person, therefore he must be gay. egduj Oct 2013 #28
