The Liberal Hat Dance
Uploaded by: CapnHenry
Video Description:
Set to the tune of "The Mexican Hat Dance" and loosely (quite loosely) based on the lyrical arrangement of Allan Sherman's adaptation of the song featuring Mexicans dancing on hats, "The Liberal Hat Dance" stars 37 United States liberals and, through a combination of actual images and digitally drawn animation, humorously pokes fun at their views and goals. The main purpose of "The Liberal Hat Dance" is to put a smile on the face of each conservative who watches it -- and maybe, just maybe, get a few liberals to chuckle at themselves, too! Several of the jokes and characters come quick, so you might enjoy watching "The Liberal Hat Dance" several times to catch it all.
The following is a list of the "cast" of "The Liberal Hat Dance." As the subjects of the jokes in the video, the cast is more than two-thirds liberal. Fifteen conservatives do make cameo appearances, however. The names of the cast (including their jobs or positions as of June 18, 2008 and any ite
ms of note) are listed in the order of appearance. Though several characters make more than one appearance, they are only listed for the first time they appear. LIBERALS (37): U.S. Sen. Edward "Ted" Kennedy (D-MA); U.S. Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV), Senate Majority Leader; former President Jimmy Carter (

Give up? Barack
Thirteen get driver's licenses. The 9/11 plot depended on easy to get licenses. Obama's plan gives a license to any illegal who wants one. A license they can use to get government benefits, a mortgage, board a plane, even illegally vote. [Wolf Blitzer of CNN asks:] "Senator Obama, yes or no."
[Obama responds:] "Yes." Barack Obama. Too radical. Too risky.
