[...] SNL Digital Short. Really fantastic lyrics and a pretty great premise. Nothing beats a goofy looking white guy (Andy Samberg) singing a love song to the delusional, dictatorial leader of an enemy country (Mahmoud Ahmadinejad). Bonus points for the biting political and social subtext. [...]

What do you do to an enemy?
You make him ridiculous.
Unfortunately, it’ll only fire-up his loyalists.
BUT WHAT A GREAT TUNE!

How childish and mean. Sounds like something Rove and Bush would do to a man that just wants peace and prosperity for all people. PULL OUT NOW! Talk, don’t fight! Stop Global Warming!

Viva Gore! Viva Kucinich! Viva Democrats!

Too bad for you vivagore… That was a great spoof on a greater poofter. The only thing missing was that poofter from coliberal university and his loser students that thought it was appropriate to applaud.

Oh my gosh. SNL scores a complete WIN! We need U.S. PsyOps to broadcast this thing into Iran. The freedom-loving Iranians will go crazy for this. The fascists will just do more of the same regardless.

Erik, doing what you do will get people killed. You know that Islam is a religion of peace until people make fun of it. Then, people die. All religion is like that. For example, look at the folsome street fair ad in S.F. Didn’t you hear about Methodists and Baptists buring cars and rioting in the streets. And we all know that Christianity is the same threat as Islam… as per Rosie. Please be responsible and do not offend the religion of peace. We all need peace! PULL OUT NOW! Stop Global Warming! Democrats are smarter and believe in tolerance and diversity… see links below.

vivagore – You gotta be kidding me. Monkey-boy wants peace and prosperity for all people? Right, and he and Chavez are looking out for all us oppressed Americans. DRILL IN ANWAR!

VivaGore   October 1st, 2007 - 2:02 pm

This is our fault. These people are peaceful and loving. Look at what we make them do. PULL OUT NOW!

Viva Gore! Viva Kucinich!

vivagore, I say again, your father should have pulled out, way back when… So, you and mahmoud hanging with yo gang on folsom street? Good luck with that!

Vote for Obama, all he needs is a chance to talk to and reason with this man and save the world!

VivaGore   October 2nd, 2007 - 12:54 am

Gore will save the world and keep us from burning up or starving within 10 yrs!!!! STOP GLOBAL WARMING!

Viva Gore! Viva Kucinich! Viva VOTE DEMOCRAT! Drop sandwiches, not bombs!

MajorJaneway   October 2nd, 2007 - 2:29 am

We “laughed” at Saddam too… Almost 4000 troops dead since… Just to make a quagmire and a terror breeding ground…

I wonder, in the end, how many of “US” will die in Iran…

Killing is a dumb answer… But most “here” are tards…

Away we go to that which awaits us…

All very sad really… Too bad ignorant people run our country these days.. That will change, but way too late…

Expect much more failure, before any success…

I agree with what VivaGore and Major Janeway is saying about troops will die in Iran if we conduct this upcoming war they way we fight in Iraq. I hope the current admistration or the next will bomb Iran back into the stone ages as soon as they proceed with nuclear weapons and before they get a chance to use them. The world will not survive if another Muslim country gets their hands on nuclear weapons. The US is the only superpower capable of turning Iran into a parking lot but I am afraid the whiny left will cry when that happens. I guess the left would rather Isreal or the US to be nuked instead of the Axis of Evil countries.
