Hockey mom sings out against Sarah Palin
Filed under: Just For Moms, In The News, That's Entertainment
We've all heard the "hockey mom" pitch and references to lipstick and pit bulls and you'd think that every hockey mom in the country would be backing Sarah Palin for president vice-president, with their darling stars of the ice by their side -- and you'd be wrong. I suspect there are a lot of moms who don't appreciate Mrs. Palin attempting to speak on their behalf.
One such mom put her objections to music and offers up this lyrical commentary on the candidate and her suitability to lead the country.
Political columnist David Knowles points out that the mom in the video is wearing a St. Louis Blues jersey and thus has an extra beef with Palin -- she could be considered responsible for an injury that Blues' goalie Manny Legace suffered after her appearance at the ice rink.
I don't know much about hockey but I do have some experience with musical theatre; my mother-in-law, whose theatre company will be celebrating its 25th year next year, was impressed and said she was pretty good. I think I'd vote for this hockey mom over the other one in a (seventy-two-year-old) heartbeat.

Derek said...'Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!
I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
' On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi'
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!

Inger said...Derek - that is frickin awesome! Love it!
And Roger? Seriously, dude? Shut up. Please. f you don't like Sarah, leave her alone and stop writing about her. It just shows how insecure you are about your own candidate to be constantly bashing her without even address the presidential candidate

Jamie said...Seriously funny. But still a joke. We will have more spendable income under Obama then under McCain. Check the facts. But whoever you vote for, you should still VOTE! That is the important part. Every single person will play an important role in this election. That we can agree on.
