The STUPIDEST NEWS STORIES of 2009 (a song)

Good morning John. It is the last video of 2009 And it just so happens that my final video of 2009 falls on a song Wednesday I wrote the lyrics to this song and then sent it to the song-writing musical duo Rhett and Link and they wrote the music and we recorded the song together which was really freaking cool so I’m going to go ahead and play the song for you and then I will talk a little bit more after the thingy Hank, do you remember when all Georgia fled that flood the left thousand homeless and seven dead while those people drowned and their houses went adrift, the news was about Kanye West and Taylor Swift But, Rhett and Link where I really seen the news media failing as every time anyone mentions Sarah Palin they dispatch a dozen camera crews every time she poos while I can’t escape the feeling she just not news. And the swine flu, while a killer, got more love than it needed killing 4,000 people while the normal flu, unheeded, kills 60,000 people year in and year out. People like to have something to freak out about. And what about the Micheal Phelps marijuana scandal? Just one picture and the media flew off the handle. He did the same thing as our last three presidents. I don’t think our priorities make much sense. So many important things happened this year, friend. Iran’s election and mass recession and Obama sworn in. But to us the things on cable news seem so freaking dumb. and we can only hope that we’re not the only ones. Yes we can only hope that we’re not the only ones. And I don’t think the crappy news gets any better than the scandals of Tiger Woods and David Letterman. It turns out that rich guys cheat on their wives. That wasn’t news in the year 25. And one of the biggest stories of the whole entire year is that Susan Boyle could sing and bring and audience to tears. With all the pretty people autotuned we forgot: you don’t have to be hot to be the talent Britain’s got. And I still laugh every time I see some poor braggart proudly holding up a sign proclaiming he’s a Teabagger. besides any confusion about the revolution, I think no matter what they mean, the news was an illusion. So many important things happened this year, friend. Iran’s election and mass recession and Obama sworn in. But to us the things on cable news seem so freaking dumb, and we can only hope that we’re not the only ones. Yes we can only hope that we’re not the only ones And I think we three can all agree the biggest load of poo is that Balloon Boy Falcon who was not in a balloon. Just another year where we kept the world alive. We didn’t pay attention, but somehow we didn’t die So many important things happened this year, friend. Iran’s election and mass recession and Obama sworn in. But to us the things on cable news seem so freaking dumb, and we can only hope that we’re not the only ones. Yes, we can only hope that we’re not the only ones. But since they’re still reporting it… we just might be the only ones. Happy New Year Hank! And the other one… Your brother I think his name is Don… John. John. So that was Rhett and Link and this is me and I am telling you people: if you have not, go check out their work: There’s a link in the sidebar. And if you want to thank them for kicking ass and making my final song Wednesday video freaking awesome, go ahead and subscribe. And they also have an album coming out on January 5th, so you might want to check that out, too. John and Nerdfighteria, thank you for making 2009 a really amazing year for us all. I could never have expected it to be this great, but maybe we can make 2010 even better. dftba
