Here’s a hilarious new video from Eric Cantor’s office, bragging about how he used his “minority whip” on Obama. It rocks the fuck out to an Aerosmith song. Hot damn! This party could win a whole 30% of votes in the next election. [The Plank]
IMOVIE SKILLZ
How can he be against golf carts? He was conceived in one.
So the question is did he do this before or after the SNL skit?
Um, they’re celebrating that the bill passed without them?
I see that ‘0′ as a noose. Is it just me?
Does the use of an Aerosmith ::shudder:: song constitute a copyright violation? Because it’d be great to see “this video is no longer available.”
$1 billion for ACORN? Those Dems have a lot of nuts.
Ohhh noes! Teh Acorns have struck again.
Zero. It represents exactly how relevant the GOP currently is.
Sweet Jeebus! That song certainly hits the target demo perfectly - Zealot Christian Wingnuts absolutely perfectly relate to mid-period Aerosmith. Oh, they don’t? Well, then it’s not so great then….
who would have imagined that someday the commie son of Malcolm X would be president AND the republic would just implode?
Out of $789 billion, only a lousy $1 billion went to buy acorns? Sounds a bit stingy to me.
Wow, Aerosmith. What, is his record collection a little light on Foghat?
who would have imagined that someday the commie son of Malcolm X would be president AND the republican party would just implode? (sorry about previous typo)
FMA: I was thinking Toto’s “Hold the Line” myself.
I’m surprised they didn’t use “Whip It.”
Other than the fact that the audio sucked, and the graphics moved to fast to read, and the few texts that you could read were completely inaccurate, I’d give it a 78, Dick Clark!
Scoreboard!
we’re sorry, this video is no longer available.
conspiracy??
gurukalehuru: I only hope we can buy enough to combat the mystery of the missing acorns with only $1 billion.
So, was this supposed to be posted to funnyordie or something? Because its not and they should.
In this Republican video I distinctly heard the words “saddle” and “back.” Saddleback. The buttsecks. Are the Republicans on to us? Oh noes!!1!!
gaggh - gurgggle - barf - !
This video is sort of the equivalent of watching the 2008-2009 Detroit Lions Season Highlight Video.
If the irony has so many layers is it still irony?
To Repubfails “bipartisan” means they do everything they want and no one on their side cries. Of course on the other side people die, but whatevar. In conclusion.
Hooray For Anything: win
Is this is the way the Republicans are reaching out to the young? A bunch of graying hair-rockers from the 70s? Dream on, GOP, dream on…
cleverhandle: Nah, more likely that they’re just being pussies. Maybe Rush disapproves of Aerosmith. While you’re living in Rush’s country, you will respect his wishes. When you grow up and move out to your own country, you can listen to whatever music you want, but while you’re living in HIS country, you’ll turn that noise off!
Of all the reasons why I’m glad I live in the sliver of Richmond that isn’t represented by this epic failure, I think his staff’s hard-on for YouTube is inching ever closer to the top of the list.
OMG, Cantor and company totally remind me of the A-V guys in my 1970s era high school class. Socially inept oafs constantly on the make and oblivious to the put downs by every other faction at the school. I can’t help but believe they must have shopped this thing to SNL and unintentionally provided it inspiration for this weekend’s show opening.
Plus, they’re still LYING about things like ACORN. There is no money designated for ACORN in the bill.
I think Aerosmith’s “Sick as a Dog”, on the same album as “Back in the Saddle”, would’ve been more appropriate.
I’m guessing the fact that the lyrics of this song depict trolling bars for hookers completely escaped their attention. This lack of attention to detail or context pretty much falls in line with my expectations of the GOP Failboat.
On Catwhore’s You Tube channel-
Strict constructionist conservatives strangely ignoring the whole part about free speech and
moderating comments! Shocking!
Lets make sure this video never gets above 1 star! / Write the RIAA / Comcast every day until they shut down catwhore’s internets (which would probably be doing him a favor, but still!)
I love how the video is down to 1-2 stars and that all of the positive comments are racking up hits on the ‘thumbs down’ icon
Wow, 300 billion for new cars for government workers? I had no idea Oprah would have such a pivotal role in the Obama administration.
You have new car! You have a new car! You have a new car!
T-Bone: Err, 300 million that is…
I wonder how many members of Aerosmith are registered republican?
Just so we’re clear, it’s definitely a buttsecks song, right? It’s bad enough conservatives want to claim the movie “Groundhog Day,” now they want to claim the ghost of Joe Perry from when he could still play. Meanwhile if you had played this shit to Eric Cantor back in 1977 he would have stained himself.
Fuel efficient/hybrid cars to replace the gas guzzler gov cars we have is too logical–saving automaker jobs while saving taxpayer money by replacing inefficient gov vehicles. I won’t stand for it. LET THE MARKET CORRECT ITSELF by worldwide implosion. Problem solved.
If this is going to be bypartisanship, the country’s screwed!
Pray, DLC nancy Barry, that you will realize, after multiple knees to the crotch, that never will there be any bi-pard.
Though virtue is its own punishment, I am tired of getting punished by the Repugs on your behalf.
In today’s Republican vocabulary, an offer of compromise is equal to an admission of ideological corruption and flaw, to be exploited by the NeoCon media as comparable to an acknowledgment of pedophlia.
Learn your lesson. No prisoners.

Joe Perry?
Thought all you kids where up on the hip new cultural references.
Gopherit: loquaciousmusic: I was hoping they’d show off their super self-awareness skillz with “Eat The Rich.”
To summarize: Barack Obama has done more to try fix the economy during his first month in Office than Cantor and his clowns managed in the last eight years.
Does the leadership of the GOP have even the vaguest idea of how utterly irrelevant their Party is becoming? Let’s not tell them. Let’s just sit back and enjoy it.
S.Luggo: Amen. The People booted the Republicans out for good reason. The President should not hesitate to rub their noses in it when required.
Mr Cantor’s TruckNutz have been reported missing, since his wife’s firm took bailout money. Just sayin’…
