...and of course it was made by college progressives.
I honestly thought I was going to have to give it to the "Gather your armies" video which I found to be corny, fringy, and all together bad, even though it was popular among conservatives. Of course I underestimated how young, ignorant, progressives have this ability to fail even your lowest expectations as if it were a continual source of pride. Brace yourself, because you'll likely feel like the next three minutes of your life were stolen.
The link that's supposed to give me help me understand all this takes me to a page with one sentence that doesn't help at all. I was hoping I was going to get something that would make sense of all of it, like an explanation for the title and phrase they use to replace Thriller, "Iller". I can see that you dropped the first three letters of thriller, but does it actually have a point other than a questionable attempt at avoiding copyright infringement? Or does it seriously mean "sicker", with sick meaning cool. And even if that's the case,"Cooler nights"? I still don't get it.
Failing an explanation I would of liked something that would of made me feel a bit sympathy for these kids. Sure the video would still be awful, but at least I would feel bad for them instead of feeling like they're insufferable, ignorant, twits.
But no, instead I got this: "Campus Progress created a video to push back on the notion that politically active young people are Zombies."
I'm not quite sure how having bad singing, a theme that doesn't make any sense, and an unoriginal video is suppose to make us think that you're not all, in fact, zombies, and the fact that nobody said "Hey guys, maybe we shouldn't release this terrible crap." just reinforces my belief that these people are completely morons.
I honestly expect better from a bunch of ten year olds with a camcorder and some free video editing software they found online. The singing might be just as bad, but they would of had the good decency to give us a coherent theme and a few goofy, funny moments.

A few interesting/fun videos
I feel a little guilty just posting videos after taking a day off, but I suppose it is my blog and I can do whatever I want. That said the videos themselves are decent stuff, although you may of seen them by now.
The first is a spoof of "We are the world", and it's mocking the Gaza "Aid" flotilla. It runs a bit long, but it got a few laughs and grins out of me. If the whole issue is depressing you then this should cheer you up a bit. Oh and the latest Rasmussen poll should help as well. Enjoy!
The second video is Michael Savage taking a call from someone who may very well be the "Stupidest Caller Ever". Even after listening to it once before I can't sit through it without pausing it and taking a break, the amount of stupid is that hard to handle.
There is a lesson to take away from this caller. All Americans - especially conservatives - need to ensure they're educated. It doesn't matter if you taught yourself on Wikipedia, just ensure you have a basic level understand of what's going on. You don't have to be brilliant, just don't look like a moron, let alone anything close to this woman.
Brace yourself, and enjoy.
When I first watched this last video I wasn't quite sure what to think. It was a bit corny, and the ending is a bit weird, but it's hard to criticize because it's actually very well put together and better than the original (which I had been listening to before finding this video). The comments suggest it's been used in classrooms to get kids interested in history, and I suppose it'd actually do a great job at making the Founding Father's and their struggle seem just a bit more real.
I've come to really enjoy this song, and it's replaced the original on my playlist. I hope we see more things like this in the future.
