US Politics Video: Campainin' in Sweet Home Alabama
Wednesday, May 19, 2010 at 23:00
Sometimes I am mighty proud to call myself an Alabama boy. This is not one of those times.
First, the real campaign video from Dale Peterson, who is running for Agriculture Commissioner on a platform of love for his horse, a defence of family farms, and a promise to shoot "illegals". Then the not-so-real (but necessarily so humourous) version from Funny or Die.

Yeah, people from Alabama are crazy. I wish we were less backwards, like UK politicians http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsnSZnhygQY" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsnSZnhygQY
Tea Party is BNP-lite. UKIP to be generous.
Thanks so much Scott, I was literally tearing up from laughter. My face is really flushed right now.
Just when I was getting a complex from being embarrassed for my own state, and "complete the danged fence" McCain, too.
The "Big John" (Cornyn) convention vid has just been eclipsed.
Scott - sorry but would you clarify which was the real deal and which was the spoof? Strom Thurmond and the other good ol' boys of yesteryear would be proud. Yi ha.

Yeah, alright! Cause we're on a misson from God ;-)
