2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI wrote a rap about the Supreme Court ruling today
Oh my God, I am so bad at rapping, so I feel bad even sharing this. But here it is:
Basically, if you don't want to watch, I taunt Republicans for 3/4th of the video. (It feels so good to win one, you know?) And then at the end I question whether Roberts is a political Machiavelli. I leave it up to people to comment, but honestly, I think if we can get universal health care passed under his view of the Constitution, we can get Cap & Trade, etc. through as well. (Though I can't even imagine what Big Businesses' resistance to real C&T would look like!)

Frankly, anything that taunts the GOP and points out that they're on the wrong side...

(38 posts)2. Haha, yeah--
Yeah, a lot of times when I make political videos, I try to assume an air of objectivity, but for this one, I was just too excited and feeling very cocky. Haha, that article you posted, "#BOOM, #GOP!! How do you like it now? How does it feel to have YOUR wishes ignored? Why, you must be feeling like, oh, I dunno, the MIDDLE CLASS?!"

I enjoyed the rather wide pitch changes in your voice.
