The Lyrics

Is Obama a closet muslim?
Loonies hearts are filled with joy ( hearts are filled with joy )
For the one with the funny name ( hearts are filled with joy )
I say now who do, whooo, who do you think you're foolin'
( Hearts are filled with joy )
He a dec-or-ated toy ( hearts are filled with jooooy )
Not a singer in a Sunday choir
The loonies love him, they love him
They scarin' up their knees with rug burns
Cause they Mus-lim like Bar-ack
Barack don't sing no " Rock Of Ages " they love him
They love him, love him, love him, love him

The loonies came up with a plan ( came up with a plan )
For the one with the funny name ( came up with a plan )
I say now who do, whooo, who do you think you're foolin'
( Came up with a plan )
He the cel-e-bra-ted one ( came up with a plaaan )
The Mes-si-ah most as-sur-ed-ly
The loonies love him, they love him
They scarin' up their knees with rug burns
Cause they Mus-lim like Bar-ack
Barack don't sing no " Rock Of Ages " they love him
They love him, love him, love him love him

So now he is the Presi-dent ( is the Presi-dent )
The loonie congress call out his name ( is the Presi-dent )
I say now who do, whooo, who do you think you're foolin'
( Who do you think you're foolin' )
He make the Presi-dent-ial deals ( is the Presi-deeent )
He not the Presi-dent-ial cus-to-dian
The loonies love him, they love him
They scarin' up their knees with rug burns
Cause they Mus-lim like Bar-ack
Barack don't sing no " Rock Of Ages " they love him
They love him, love him, love him, love him
Mus-lim like Bar-ack, Mus-lim like Bar-ack, Mus-lim like Bar-ack
Barack don't sing no " Rock Of Ages " they love him
Mus-lim like Bar-ack, Mus-lim like Bar-ack, Mus-lim like Bar-ack

OK, so Obama has a "funny" name. But who are you calling loonies? People who say "yes sir" and kowtow to ANYONE who claims to have God on his side and then leads a nation to ruin by lying all the time - that's being nuts. What difference does a person's religious faith make, if he's for real? I'd rather have a real Muslim (or Jew or whatever) at the helm than some idiot who uses Jesus Christ as leverage for himself. Obama is no Messiah but he does appear to be trying to pick up the pieces and make American democracy and glory real again. W is to America what Gen. Hideki Tojo is to Japan. Tojo led Japan to WW2 aggression based on fibs and censorship and he and his junta led Japan to disaster. After the Cold War ended many things started to go wrong in the USA and elsewhere and not much was done. W could've prevented our economic decline from worsening as well as not bring shame to America. Who are the loonies now?

Get a grip guys, it's a SONG PARODY, you know almost like Tina Fey parodies Sarah Palin. It's ok to ridicule one side and the other is out of bounds? Get real.

Randy, I agree with your comment about parodying one side or the other. . .both sides are fair game. I am an independent politically, so I can look at things objectively, the problem with this is Barack is not Muslim, it (like many of the false rumors out there) was started by Conservative think tanks (not the actual Republicans themselves mind you) Also the parody, at least to me, doesn't make a whole lot of sense. . .I will abstain from voting as I can't listen to the original song right this moment to check pacing, but at least for me the problem isn't that you are against President Barack Obama, it's that your parody uses inaccurate information to criticize him. . .if you want to use accurate information to criticize him, I'd probably enjoy it just like I did a good number of both Clinton and Bush critical parodies.
