ParaTed2k's (Not So) Famous $5 Giveaway Game

Last month I started a game where I offered a $5 prize to the person who could come up with the funniest ACORN Acronym. Congratulations again to Betsyraeduke for winning that one! I know I said that they all wouldn't be political, and they won't, but this one will be. This one goes with my new position, teaching guitar as part of an afterschool program at a local elementary school. I wrote an article about it, poking fun at the teachers who abuse their position to spread their left wing political views in the classroom. Here at the Giveaway Game I thought it would be fun to continue that spirit of satire. Write a couple of verses of lyrics that you would incorporate into a song you might use to teach elementary kids your political views. Left, right, moderate, whatever. It can satirize Obama, Bush, or even supporters of either. Here's a few to get you started; (To the tune of Old McDonald) Old Obama had a farm, EIE I Owe and on this farm he had some pork EIE I Owe With a "Bail out" here and a "Bail out" there Here a "bail" there an "out" everywhere a "bail out" Old Obama had a bill EIE I owe. here's another one: (To Eensy Weensy Spider) Eensy Weens Obama climbed up the healthcare spout. Down came the truth and washed Obama out. Out came the stunned and whined, moaned and complained so the eensy weens Obama tried to spout again. Ground rules... no words that can't pass MyLot censors... if you try to get past them with zeros for "O", "$" for S or "@" for a, you won't get past me. If you try it, you might make me laugh, but you will also be disqualified. I'm the only judge, and my judgement is final. That means I might not pick the one that sent liquid refreshment shooting from oral to ossicle. There might even be more than one that cause an aural soda fountain, but only one can win. In that case, I'll just have to wing it. If you don't like the outcome, well.... put up your own $5 and then you get to be the judge! Remember, even though I'm the one and only judge, and you know my political views... you also know I'm willing to have a good laugh at my own expense. Don't worry if your entry might not agree with my views, this contest is listed under "humor" not "politics". Funny gets the money!

To the tune of Sixteen Tons You voted for Obama and what did ya get, a sinking economy that deepened the debt, Mandatory servitude you can't deny, because you sold your soul to the Obama lie.

[b]I answered it. Thanks! I'm extremely pleased to have won, given that a bunch of the posts people entered made me laugh! Thanks for the fun game! And the $5! Do I just go to PayPal & ask 'em where's my $5, or will they email me that it's there? I've never dealt with them except to get payouts here, & of course, your 5 isn't going to show up here, even tho, technically, I did make it here!

[b]Eek! I missed a line in stanza 2! It should've read: "Crowd is waiting, breathless, still, Breathless, still, breathless, still... (missing line) Crowd is waiting, breathless, still... Poor Obama!" Sorry 'bout that. Geezerhood doth approach right swiftly! Maggiepie "WHERE'S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE?"[/b]

Yo, bro. It have to be targeted to a US political scene ? A haiku-like is acceptable, eventually ? Are you a objective or subjective judge ? You will pay the prize cash, in so called "Jackson bills" ?

Well, It will have to be one that makes me laugh, so if I don't get it, it might have a handicap, but you can offer any little political ditty you want. I pay $5 to the paypal account of the winner, what that translates to in local currency, I have no idea.
