MSNBC Parody

I'm a big fan of parody, especially with politics because its all such an absurd business, its begging to be made fun of. I must admit, I'm still proud of my attempt to parody one of the Republican debates, even though I'm quite certain I'm the only person who read it (where are my 7.12 readers?).

Still, it doesn't compare to this masterful smack on MSNBC pundits Chris Matthews and Tim Russert. Gawd. Just hilarious, and spot on. Here's an excerpt, but seriously, check out the whole thing:

Tim: You know, it reminds me a lot of when my dad, BIG RUSS, and I watched Bills games together. Just one of those real back-and-forth games. You had Jim Kelly, the great, All-pro quarterback. And you had Thurman Thomas, the wonderful running back. Those were real competitions. And that’s what we have here. A REAL competition. With Barack Obama, whose this sort of great, unpolished talent. Very much like Vince Young, the quarterback down in Tennessee.

Chris: I agree. I think he’s just like Vince Young, right down to the gay throwing motion. This REALLY is astounding. I’ve always said politics is just like football, and it’s showing here.
