Divine inspiration from somewhere in the heartland. I'll just let it speak for itself. And Sarah.

Here are the lyrics:

She's a cold blast from Alaska
Ingrained with common sense
She's not a Harvard lawyer
But she knew what the Founders meant
A cold blast from the north
That freezes Congress in their tracks
With God and the Tea Party
She's gonna take it back

[Chorus]
Sarah Palin, she won't listen to their bunk
Sarah Palin's comin' south to hunt some skunk
Sarah Palin, she'll throw them all in jail
And when she gets to Washington
It'll be cold as hell

Sarah has the wisdom
To walk through an open door
She is stomping out the wretches
Where the evil lines are stored
She will scrub the floors and sweep the riff raff into cracks
With God and the Tea Party
She's gonna take it back

[Chorus]

[Spoken]
Congress patted themselves on the back
For some new bill they just passed
I watch as my freedom slowly runs through an hourglass
They think they spend our money better than we do
But they can talk until they're blue and old
'Cause if they ever gave us anything
They always wanted something in return
Sarah knows.

Sarah's marching home

"... but she knew what the founders meant" is past tense. Why doesn't she still know it?

E_in_MD's picture

I just think it's amusing that any of these slack jawed morons think she's in any way shape or form qualfied or capable of being President let alone that she'd either run or win. She couldn't handle being governor of a state with less people than Baltimore for a full term... but yeah she's going to 'clean things up'.

I find it funny that the way conservatards react towards this woman is exactly what they perceived everyone on the left reacted to Obama... and they DESPISED that. Called him a rockstar and the liberal second coming and so forth. Guess Idolatry is ok when you're Republican too.

Hey! I’ve been to that church. I know those people.

Sarah is going to save them the same way Jesus is: with downhome country wisdom and feel good folksy charm. Praise the Lord and pass on down that heap’n help’n of Southern gospel. You’ll still be hungry after gorging on it every Sunday, but it shore do gets your insides all …um… full of it…

As it was pointed out, southern Baptist or Pentecostal. I think I read somewhere the succubus Sarah could dance in the spirit and talk in tongues with the best of them.

She's a succubus. It explains her rise from low-level mediocrity to media eye candy.

She's sucked McCain dry, which also explains his crotchety of late.

Are they going to change her birthday to December 25 and claim they know the manger where Sarah was born?

Sarah marches in one direction, toward the closest dollar and camera.

Weren't we recently talking about the signs of mental illness and who should get help? Let's start with this lady who is singing this insane song. She needs help before she sings again.

I wonder if any of those people have read the Jefferson Bible.

Thomas Jefferson believed that the ethical system of Jesus was the finest the world has ever seen. In compiling what has come to be called "The Jefferson Bible," he sought to separate those ethical teachings from the religious dogma and other supernatural elements that are intermixed in the account provided by the four Gospels. He presented these teachings, along with the essential events of the life of Jesus, in one continuous narrative.

It can be easy to forget that evangelicalism is a very English phenomenon, which makes it hard to imagine that the Founder's put much stock in it.


I pledge allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, and to the republic which it established, one nation from many peoples, promising liberty and justice for all

A song fest! What a wonderful way to celebrate MLK Day. Featuring those tunes that best captures the 2011 political zeitgeist in America. Here's my offering (enjoy):

Horst Wessel Song lyrics

"Flags high, ranks closed,
The S.A. marches with silent solid steps.
Comrades shot by the red front and reaction
march in spirit with us in our ranks.

The street free for the brown battalions,
The street free for the Storm Troopers.
Millions, full of hope, look up at the swastika;
The day breaks for freedom and for bread.

For the last time the call will now be blown;
For the struggle now we all stand ready.
Soon will fly Hitler-flags over every street;
Slavery will last only a short time longer.

Flags high, ranks closed,
The S.A. marches with silent solid steps.
Comrades shot by the red front and reaction
march in spirit with us in our ranks".

it would be a cold day in H*ll when Sarah came to Washington? Because that is what it sounds like to me.

TheOtherJim's picture

Ohmygawd... This has to be the best... the BEST thing I've seen all year. Absolutely. Well, except for that other thing... that other thing was pretty good, but this? Wow. Although... well, you know, if the truth be told, that other thing was really really good. You think maybe I should put the two of them up on the screen at the same time and maybe watch them side by side? Yeah, that'd be a good thing to do because, you know, you really can't just compare something you just saw -- even if it's something as totally awesome as this with something that you saw a couple of weeks ago.

Oh, wait; if I saw it a couple of weeks ago, that would make it last year, wouldn't it? Or is it like a sliding scale, like maybe the best thing I saw in the last three hundred and sixty-five days? Or would it be three hundred and sixty-five and a quarter, you know, so we could account for those leap years? So... OK, if that's what we're doing, then there's a bunch of things I saw that were pretty good, and I'm pretty sure there are maybe three or four that I didn't get around to seeing that were... well, maybe not totally awesome, but pretty good, you know? So this is... well, I don't know.

But yeah, it was pretty good. So... let me see if I remember this right... Sarah Palin is so awesome that she'd walk through an open door, right? And there was something about going to Washington D.C. to do lines, which is... well, I'm not really OK with that, but that thing with the doors was, like, totally real. It's like the guy singing knows me, you know?

Crap! I just spit out my iced tea.

That's funny!

Did that guy at the end say he wanted to dedicate it all to the tea party and the pastries? Because that would kind of make sense. The song certainly doesn't - it left me behind with the second line.

katy's picture

easy enough to imagine... and everybody knows the tune...

but, have to ask - why is the microphone BEHIND her, and facing the wall...

maybe that's a "blessing"...?

Mike The Riverine's picture

Yes, this video appears to be in a church. As it's being used for a political statement, isn't it about time to take away their tax-exempt status?

"Sarah Palin's comin' south to hunt some skunk.." - again with the gun references. Wasn't Tucson enough?

"Sarah Palin, she'll throw them all in jail..." (Well boys, the new marshal's in town, we better skedaddle) Excuse me, if a majority of people voted, and you are in the minority when did it become fashionable to form a lynch party to take out legally elected member of Congress? You lost. Get over yourselves.

"And when she gets to Washington/It'll be cold as hell." ROTFLMAO -Yeah, right. A cold day in hell.

These people honest to God believe Palin's the Second Coming of Christ. It's obvious the GOP and the Tea Party have studied brainwashing, these two yokels are a prime example. Definitely glued to FOX propaganda.

Well, if they can f*ck up a great song like "Battle Hymn of the Republic", I'll add my favorite version by Pete Seeger and The Weavers:

to take away their tax-exempt status?

way past time, way, way past time. as a godless commie i resent any church, christian, jew, muslim, bahai, hindu, any friggin' church not having to pay taxes on their income and property. the "establishment of religion" referred to a state church, when they get away scot-free on the support of this country, how is that right? how is it any different than a state sponsored church? sure you are not favoring one senseless creed over another, but the net effect is the same, the state is sponsoring religion. these entities are virtual corporations, how is that working out for us? make every one of these bullshit bunko artists open up their books.

tax exempt staus for religions violates equal protection for atheists, why should i have to pay taxes to support religions damaging superstitions? why should religions be tax exempt for pushing this dangerous garbage?

posted it before, go on over to talk2action and read up on sister sarah, mary glazier, and the prayer network; talk about alternate reality. looney tunes, makes my old favorite "synthetic financial instruments" seem almost reasonable.

...of the "Battle Hymn of Sarah Palin".

It reminded me of the mid-50s when my older brother and I write stanza after stanza of our own version of "The Ballad of Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier", sung by us at the top of our voices to the melody (such as it was) from the Fess Parker television program of that name.

"On June 13, 2008 Mary Glazier told attendees at the “Opening the Gate of Heaven on Earth” conference, who represented many of the New Apostolic Reformation’s top leaders, that she had been present at the inception of Sarah Palin’s political career and that Palin was in her personal prayer group :

“There was a twenty-four year old woman that God began to speak to about entering into politics. She became a part of our prayer group out in Wasilla. Years later, became the mayor of Wasilla. And last year was elected Governor of the state of Alaska. Yes! Hallelujah! At her inauguration she dedicated the state to Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!"

praise god, that he has raised up such a woman as this for our time of need!!!! now with glenn beck riding in on his white horse we should be covered. hallelujah!!!

...to this. I already hate the Battle Hymn of the Republican and Sarah Palin separately. Why on Earth would I want to combine them? I'd rather undergo 28 simultaneous root canals without anesthesia. I read a few lines and gave up -- surely, the person who slapped this POS together gave it the full sixty seconds it deserves -- although from the looks of the lyrics, sixty seconds seems excessive for such mindless, artless drivel.

Sarah Palin would hate these people. We've seen the TLC show. She complains about walking to the car when it's snowing. Can you imagine Sarah, wearing her $100k dress and her Louis Vuitton sunglasses, flinching when one of them tries to hug her, smelling like freshly cleaned carcass and Schlitz?
