A Sarah Palin tribute video is the latest viral video making rounds online. Supporters recorded a song in honor of the former Alaska Governor/reality TV show maven, set to the tune of the "Battle Hymn of the Republic." According to its YouTube posting, the "Sarah Palin Battle Hymn" was written by Tom Dempsey and performed by Gary Mcvay. If that's enough to entice you, here's the chorus:
Sa-rah Palin, she won't listen to their bunk
Sa-rah Palin's coming south to hunt some skunk
Sa-rah Palin, she'll throw 'em all in jail
And when she gets to Washington, it'll be cold as hell.
A 2012 campaign song, perhaps?

I have no words. My expression is shock and sickness.
wow.
This is music from and plagiarized from a "Union marching Song" during the Civil War. One that Union Soldiers sang as they destroyed the extreme right bigots in the South! Is Sarah sure she wants this music for her theme song? I think it very appropriate as God walks all over her!!
Nickwolf, I think you need to read the history books again. Those "extreme right bigots" that you speak of in the South were Democrats. The "extremest" Republican Union was fighting against the slave-owning Southern Democrats.
Thats right about the southern democrats. They were all for states rights and a weak federal govt. while Lincoln and the north wanted a strong federal govt. with the states being subjugated under federal law. In effect, the Republicans of today with their states rights are more in tune with the southern democrats of that era, while the democratic party of today is more in line with the party of Lincoln.
You're correct. Back then, the conservatives called themselves Democrats and the liberals called themselves Republicans. Since then, everyone sort of switched sides to the alignment we know today. This means that it was still the conservatives who were pro-slavery, they just called themselves Democrats at that time, while the abolitionist liberals called themselves Republicans. I don't think that party names were brought up until you did it.
This confusion just shows the problems with aligning with a party name rather than looking at who believes what.
Oops! I didn't see that GaryP-2940660 responded to your post already with basically the same information in post #26 on the second page of comments.
After they started sweeping the cracks I couldn't take it anymore. They can have her. But America won't.
Skunk - appropriate choice of animal as she does stink the place up!!
SNL Needs to show this unedited as it. Un Bleeping Real
...they will. This is a banner year for Tina Fey!
This has got to be planted satire, because I simply refuse to believe these people share the same jury pool supply. Oh, please say it ain't so. Of course "Washington will be cold as hell" when Sarah gets there, that's what happens when the place freeezes over. Forget opinion, it's a simple matter of thermodynamics.
This is Hucking Filarious !!!!!
Well, they got one thing right. It'll be a cold day in hell before Ms. Palin gets to Washington
My thought too!
And Lawrence et al, please don't do this to me again! It made me throw up a little.
That's definitely backwoods. Sorry I'll miss the show tonight, I'll be watching her on Hannity tonight.
Would it be considered hate speech to note that this video is completely silly because, in her last video, Sarah Palewoman revealed herself to be a self-absorbed, finger pointing, whiner?
Look, America wasn't built by whiners. It isn't defended by whiners. Sarah is a joke. Let's make jokes about her, and reduce her to the irrelevancy she really is.
Palin is not a joke....she is just a "punch line"
An old, sick and unfunny one!
I am speechless. I am an Alaskan and am laughing till I almost hurl. What is scary is that these people really are singing from their hearts. She has to be stopped! I wonder what the collective IQ is in that church hall.
Goddess, It's good to know there are some intelligent people in Alaska who haven't isolated themselves from the rest of educated America. You must just be shivering with embarrassment!! This, the latest, from the nutsy fringes, is so goofy as to have had to been intended as a joke. If not, now we can see where she is pulling her "advisors." Really, are there people like this in America??!!
Sorry - double posted
I didn't listen to it because I don't want my ears to bleed.
Palin and Hannity sitting in a tree = ha ha ha -man they are both nuts
Great comedians! Yee Haw!
One can only hope that the usual odd variety of rural legal problems will keep these two, and their friends, away from the polls at the critical moment.
Why are you folks and especially L. O'Donell so infatuated with Sarah Palin??? Everyday.........Palin did this, Palin did that, Palin this PALIN,PALIN,PALIN!!!! You folks are nut cases about Sarah Palin. Look at yourselves - you're filled with worry, pain, and hate over Palin. You blame her for everything. Liberals are consumed worrying about whether Palin will be a candidate for President. Why do you care? You critique every single step. Get a life, quick. Sarah may not be Presidential material but, she certainly is not responsible for the act of a crazed murderer in Tuscon.
Palin is just a cheerleader. it's the team she choose to make her money with. Yes, hate the racist John Birch Society and the KKK and White Supremecists groups!...all of which are in the Tea Party. Responsible Republicans got rid of them on their own years ago. Now their back and she's their Earth Mother. As in all idolatry ..... we real Christians stand against her! We stand with Jesus...who will ignore her lifes work and never get near her damaged soul !
Who knows? Why do people have to rubber-neck at a a car crash, and why are people infatuated with train wrecks? All questions that will probably never be answered about the human tendency to follow disasters.
Imagine a placard of yourself with a big cross hair between your eyes. Ask how Failin might feel about that if all her future public shows have crosshaired banners pointing at her. The liberals that you hate, Jesus the first liberal included, say, "father forgive them for they know not what they do".
To talk about infatuation, Michael, what's up?
One can only hope that the usual odd variety of rural legal problems will keep these two, and their friends, away from the polls at the critical moment.
In-breeding lives in the good old United States and Alaska.
In the foggy haze and stench of yet another foxfart.
Anyone else notice she pulls the microphone out of her butt in the very beginning?
Is that called digging for gold?
I don't think I'd even be able to rise to the standard set by the previous post, much less come up with anything that would sufficiently parody this fervid demonstration of good ol', down-home, true-blue All-American Patriotism. Some things exist on a plane beyond parody, and this is one of them. As Wittgenstein put it: "Whereof one cannot speak, one must pass over in silence."
Let us pause for a moment in stunned tribute.
On second thought, we can probably point out the upside this suggests: This is what remains of Palin's core base. How's that hopey Oval-Officey thing workin' out for ya, Sarah?
It is a good first effort for our two troubadours, but I believe that the last line of the chorus needs something - they are unsuccessfully trying to rhyme "hell" with "jail". Unfortunately the meter is off, but the message also seems to be at odds with their beliefs: are they really saying that it will be a "cold day in hell" when Sarah Palin gets to Washington DC? Why not avoid the confusion and pair "jail" with something more subtly evocative like "hail" or "pale."
Furthermore, the gentleman's hand motions from time code 2:26 on don't seem to be in rhythm to the syncopation. The woman's right knee, on the other hand, keeps a seductively good beat.
This video is serves as further evidence of why we enacted laws against interbreeding.
Nevermind the misguided hero worship and bad verses. There are some unintentionally funny theatrics. Watch where the lady's mic comes from, and their body language. And at the end, what is with all that motioning? I couldn't tell if he wanted the guy to play the next song, or rewind, or if he was thought he had to tell the sound guy to "wrap it up," like you do with a live band.
I wonder what the occasion was. Were they doing this during a church service? Where? What on earth would induce somebody to lip sync a song like this in a church? I wish they had gotten more of the "old rugged cross" into the picture.
Not just funny, this is a troubling slice of Americana.
SHE IS NOT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'VE SAID IT BEFORE. I'LL SAY IT AGAIN.
PLEASE STOP AIRING EVERYTHING SAID BY,POSTED BY OR ON BEHALF OF THIS WOMAN.
I'M SICK OF IT!!!!!
When Lawrence told Rachel Maddow that he missed the first part of her show because he was watching a video relating to Sarah Palin I knew I was not going to watch his show. Every time he mentions her I change the channel.
Then you are the one who is sick and needs help DEMOCRAT
2 words ... INCREDIBLY STUPID
I believe that some said the same thing about the defenders of the ALAMO
