Shoes Off The Ground

Sunday, August 7th, 2011

President Obama likes having pictures taken of himself with his feet off the floor.  So with apologies to General Larry Platt, and with reference to Obama's recent White House hip hop party, here's a song to get you in the mood for a Sunday of putting your feet up.

 

 

(with apologies to General Larry Platt)

 

Shoes Off The Ground

Shoes off the ground Shoes off the ground 
Lookin’ like a fool with yo shoes off the ground
With yo teleprompter preachin'
Biden overreachin', shoes off the ground
Call yourself a cool cat, lookin' like a fool
Sittin' at your desk with your shoes off the ground
Put them down, hey, get your shoes on the ground
Sittin’, talkin’ with your shoes off the ground
Set them down, hey, get your shoes on the ground
Lookin’ like a fool with your shoes off the ground
Marbles in your mouth 57 states
Call yourself a cool cat, yeah, lookin’ like a fool
Sittin’, talkin’ with your shoes off the ground
Boom, boom, shoes off the ground
Lookin’ like a fool with your shoes off the ground
With your marbles in your mouth
Economy turned sideways, shoes off the ground
Call yourself a cool cat.

America’s Trash Party

Tuesday, October 5th, 2010

A Coalition of Litterers occupied the National Mall last weekend.  More than 400 mutually-interested groups, from racists like La Raza, to violent unionists like SEIU, to re-tread Black Power wannabees like the NBPP, all converged together to rally for their cause.  

 

Chief among their exploits was the amount of litter they left behind.  Though they didn't match the Beck/Tea Party crowd of a month ago, they far exceeded expectations in the amount of litter they left behind.

 

As one would expect.

 

From this, a new major American political movement was born:  The American Trash Party.  A movement that trashes your wallet, your history, your Constitution, and your values.

 

Naturally, posters had to be made.  Here are two:

El Paso’s Crookedly-Singing Mayor

Saturday, September 18th, 2010

Mayor John Cook, sometimes slurred as Mayor Crook (but only because nearly everyone around him is convicted, under investigation, or suspected of corruption), wants to "annex" Fort Bliss.  He wants this so as to take advantage of the allegedly massive tax base that exists on the Army post.  So we made a song that we hope sums up the nature of Crook, El Paso and… why, yes — why the local guvmint has a problem paying first-responders their due.  It's because Crook & Co have squandered the city treasury on misc. silliness.  Enjoy!

 

 

THIS POST IS MY POST

 

CHORUS

This post is our post, this post is my post

From Cassidy, to Biggs Airfield

From the Dyer redline, to McGregor Range

This post was made for taxing you

 

As I was walking Spur 601

I saw above me an Army sign

I saw below me a tax man sign

This post was made for taxing you

 

CHORUS

 

I've sang and stumbled and I've slept with hoodlums

Ethics Commission and drug-soaked buddies

And all around me, corruption cases

This post was made for you and me

 

CHORUS

 

The dollars shining as I was thinking

My failures growing and charges pending

How could I pay them, the local cops

This post was made for you and me

 

CHORUS

 

As I was ploddin'  -  I saw a sign there

And that sign said – 'corruption free'

But on the other side… it didn't say nothin!

Now that side was made for El Paso!

 

CHORUS

 

In Magoffin Alley – where we began

Near to my office – I see my people

Who wonder how, we spent it all

And if this post's still made for you and me.

 

CHORUS (2x)

Where’s Silver Reyes?

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Reyes hasn't updated his taxpayer-funded blog since 2008. Why, we remember the time when he was a fixture on intelligent matters like Intelligence (since, like, whenever), and "reducing college costs" (2007). You could hardly choke down a dry flauta without seeing Silver around, picking up loose change off the restaurant floor and selling snippets of his hair to admiring locals. Now, it's like he got off Pelosi's chain and is running loose around the political neighborhood. Everyone knows him, but no one wants to bring him in. He's like the ugly one-eyed, three-legged chihuahua, not the beautiful Siberian Husky. So he's just a stray, and everyone seems be repulsed by him. Politically.

It’s The End Of Their Party As We Know It (And We Feel Fine)

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

[Ed:  I've watched Obama's Administration screw up for a year.  This parody wraps it up for me.  Sorta.  There's a second parody coming.  There's enough for it, easy.  Thanks to twisty Michael Stipe for the influence and for making it so easy.]

 

It's The End Of Their Party As We Know It (And We Feel Fine)

(with apologies to R.E.M.’s Bill Berry, Peter Buck, Mike Mills, Michael Stipe)

 

That’s great, it starts with Obamacare, money there, and Barney Frank – Steve Colbert is not afraid.

 

Cornhusker Kickback, ACORN heart attack,

Glenn Beck’s on your back, Fleetwood Mac on 8-Track.

 

Daily Kos is polling wrong, Robert Gibbs’ face is long,  

Bowing down to heads of state, ShoreBank’s final fate.

 

Coffee Party astroturf, George Soros butthurt,

Global warming millionaires and Al Gore hot air.

 

Babs Boxer, Harry Reid gothic face of Dem greed. Firedoglake work overtime, propping up a dying line.

 

Oval Office garden with imported plants, fake doctor’s smocks and KSM.  Look at that Maddow – oh, another ratings blow.

What, then?

 

Uh, oh, Churchill no, Jeremiah Wright’s a go, DVDs to the Queen, look at me primp and preen.  Israel bad bad Saudi daddy glad glad, bored with this stinking job, trot my kids out, stay away.

 

You foaming-mouth, Left Wing, hot, snot, smear merchant empty-head looking for a fight.

 

It’s the end of that Party and we know it

It’s the end of that Party and we know it.

It’s the end of that Party and we feel fine.

 

Cancer patients on parade, doctors’ jackets in the shade,

Aborted baby saves cash, or trot kids out to make a splash,

Nancy P tuna farm, Jane Harman AIPAC harm,

Feinstein real estate grab cash, REM lead singer, socialist bell-ringer,

Useful tool, Golden Rule, rhyme-clinger, bitter singer,

Jerky little baldy singy man full of hate, discriminate, it’s fun.

Pelosi’s Caucus, womyn’s only cathouse henhouse, call a special meeting,

Lipstick air kiss greeting, Mark Spivey Astroturf, Ellie Light in the night. 

 

It’s the end of that Party and we know it

It’s the end of that Party and we know it. (It’s time I had some freedom)

It’s the end of that Party and we know it (It’s not time for any CoffeeTurf) and

we feel fine. (We feel fine)

 

Dan Rather mumbles on Vietnam George Bush, watermelon President, very articulate.  Hope and Change, anger frames, Democratic Underground exploding from internal flames.

 

Sycophantic Libtards herkin’, jerkin’ in the night, right?  Right.

 

It’s the end of that Party and we know it

It’s the end of that Party and we know it. (It’s time I had some freedom)

It’s the end of that Party and we know it (It’s not time for any CoffeeTurf) and

we feel fine. (We feel fine)

 

It’s the end of that Party and we know it

It’s the end of that Party and we know it. (It’s time I had some freedom)

It’s the end of that Party and we know it (It’s not time for any CoffeeTurf) and

we feel fine. (We feel fine)

 

It’s the end of that Party and we know it

It’s the end of that Party and we know it. (It’s time I had some freedom)

It’s the end of that Party and we know it (It’s not time for any CoffeeTurf) and

we feel fine. (We feel fine)

 

It’s the end of that Party and we know it

It’s the end of that Party and we know it. (It’s time I had some freedom)

It’s the end of that Party and we know it (It’s not time for any CoffeeTurf) and

we feel fine. (We feel fine)

We Make Fun of White House Professional Robert Gibbs Making Fun of Sarah Palin Making Fun of Sarah Palin’s Palm-Notes

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

After White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs parodied Sarah Palin’s use of hand-notes, we parody both the hopeless Gibbs and a laughable legal assertion that has appeared on the White House’s Flickr page. Clicky on picture for super-sized Gibbsness goodness:

Introducing the El Paso Sun

Saturday, December 20th, 2008

We have no idea who’s behind El Paso Fake News, though we suspect it’s actually Roy Ortega blogging from his home in pajama bottoms and a workout bra, but the blogger has outdone his already-outdone-himself parody-within-a-satire by launching The El Paso Sun.

Mainstream Media covers the announcement here.

Fifth Best Local Blog? That Calls for a Fifth of Whiskey to Celebrate!

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

Thanks to the El Paso Times for putting 4 Borders Pundit on the voting list for Best Blogger, and for voters who placed it fifth, with 7.48% of the votes.

Despite this fishwrap blog making the list, there are some good choices there, all worth checking out. So check ‘em out here.

Congratulatory telegrams have been pouring in from all over, including from Sara Palin, Baracke Obama, Jae Koestner and, of course, regular visitors Scarlett Johnson, Selmah Hayak, and Jo Biden. Due to this success, the blog has also been asked to host President-Elect Obama’s “first 100 days” reports, while simultaneously hosting the Repub’s strategy to achieve their major (rather difficult) goal in 2012: to take one lousy Senate and one hopeless House seat back.

In 2009, 4 Borders Pundit promises to post more than 7.48% of the time, too.

Now, about you people’s choices for Best Italian… Well, we need to talk.
