In a just world, this would be enough to disqualify him from office. Unspeakable.
Exit question: How long do you figure it took to find, cut, and stitch the clips here? 20-30 hours? And worth every second.

JetBoy on August 11, 2008 at 11:22 AM
Ah, can’t get the video. What does he say?
Bob's Kid on August 11, 2008 at 11:22 AM
hahahhaa I love this! hahahaa
becki51758 on August 11, 2008 at 11:23 AM
I was pretty sure what this was before clicking it.
Pure genius. Brilliant!
connertown on August 11, 2008 at 11:23 AM
This is right up there with memories of Richard Nixon, appearing on the classic “Laugh-In” TV show, looking into the camera and saying “sock it to me!”
MrScribbler on August 11, 2008 at 11:25 AM
This is funny and awesome.
jencab on August 11, 2008 at 11:25 AM
Oh, AP. That was so wrong. No 72 virgins for you…
ulyses on August 11, 2008 at 11:25 AM
good one!!
urbancenturion on August 11, 2008 at 11:26 AM
LOL!
Now that took alot of work.
BacaDog on August 11, 2008 at 11:27 AM
I would think that weak punch should disqualify him, what if Putin tried to start a fist fight?
Either that or the fact he’s offering to pay everyone $1,000 if they make him Pres, which seems a little Illegal to me.
Rbastid on August 11, 2008 at 11:27 AM
Lawl. My friend just sent me this a bit ago.
Agreed!
loganthompson on August 11, 2008 at 11:27 AM
It would have been a lot funnier if you hadn’t put it in the headlines earlier. I think everyone knew what it was going into it.
malan89 on August 11, 2008 at 11:27 AM
No. No no no.
MadisonConservative on August 11, 2008 at 11:27 AM
Oh now THAT is funny!
IrishGirl17 on August 11, 2008 at 11:28 AM
Ya got me.
Hook,line,sinker,…….boat,truck,trailer.

subbottomfeeder on August 11, 2008 at 11:28 AM

trailortrash on August 11, 2008 at 11:29 AM
Oh…my…god.
winewife on August 11, 2008 at 11:30 AM
I move to give this guy a Nobel Prize for Youtube-ing.
emailnuevo on August 11, 2008 at 11:30 AM
Obama’s team ought to drop their celebrity ad, and run this in its place – at least this one doesn’t make him look as stupid.
Think_b4_speaking on August 11, 2008 at 11:30 AM
I guess it was inevitable considering how close Barack is to Rick.
jimmy the notable on August 11, 2008 at 11:31 AM
Thank heavens for people with too much time on their hands. Hilarious.
Tanya on August 11, 2008 at 11:31 AM
LMAO
KCB on August 11, 2008 at 11:32 AM
beautiful..
just beautiful.
DaveC on August 11, 2008 at 11:32 AM
Okay. it came up this time. Hilarious!
Bob's Kid on August 11, 2008 at 11:33 AM
That clinches it. I’ve voting for Bob Barr!
Nethicus on August 11, 2008 at 11:33 AM
Gahhhh! The goggles! They do nothing!
wccawa on August 11, 2008 at 11:35 AM
Awesome!
Grafted on August 11, 2008 at 11:36 AM
barack = gravitas
Not.
silverfox on August 11, 2008 at 11:37 AM
Proof that Allah has WAY to much time on his hands!
And all this time we thought you were out looking for more humping robot videos
Exit question: Was that his white half dancing?
FloridaBill on August 11, 2008 at 11:39 AM
HILARIOUS!!!
D2Boston on August 11, 2008 at 11:39 AM
Ahhh, the perfect confluence…
An emptyheaded intenet joke…
and an emptyheaded political joke…
How…. appropriate…
Romeo13 on August 11, 2008 at 11:39 AM
Well, now we finally know where Barry got his talking points from.
Think_b4_speaking on August 11, 2008 at 11:40 AM
A true work of video editting art…awesome!
WisCon on August 11, 2008 at 11:42 AM
Looks like he got his dancing genes from his mom.
Cicero43 on August 11, 2008 at 11:43 AM
Funny stuff.
Here’s a similar-type video of President Bush doing U2’s Sunday Bloody Sunday.
CP on August 11, 2008 at 11:46 AM
This is the same person who did “I’m F*cking Obama.” great work.
Ian on August 11, 2008 at 11:47 AM
Sooooo funny.
The best rick-roll evvaahhh
moxie_neanderthal on August 11, 2008 at 11:47 AM
I still like this one, though.
“Here’s a song by a ghey guy.”
Dr.Cwac.Cwac on August 11, 2008 at 11:49 AM
Best. Rickroll. Ever.
flipflop on August 11, 2008 at 11:50 AM
Here is an even better version of the Barack Roll.
nazo311 on August 11, 2008 at 11:52 AM
ROTFLMAO That’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while.
Have to agree.
peski on August 11, 2008 at 11:54 AM
I lasted 40 seconds.
Bigfoot on August 11, 2008 at 11:55 AM
Not only that, Check out the highly acclaimed McBAIN FOR AMERICA
wise_man on August 11, 2008 at 11:57 AM
This is the first time someone’s successfully caught me in a rickroll, nice job.
Typhonsentra on August 11, 2008 at 12:01 PM
1:01-1:05
Was that what Rev. Jack-sun was threatening?
rihar on August 11, 2008 at 12:01 PM
You Tube = Blocked :(
I’ll check this after work.
JayHaw Phrenzie on August 11, 2008 at 12:02 PM
Can I write in “McBain” on my ballot?
FloridaBill on August 11, 2008 at 12:04 PM
You should be drawn and quartered. Figuratively speaking of course. (Gotta add that these days.)
baldilocks on August 11, 2008 at 12:05 PM
Might as well.
wise_man on August 11, 2008 at 12:06 PM
Hilarious, Barack just lost at least a million Black votes, he’s no brotha if he can’t dance and he can’t go back now.
Speakup on August 11, 2008 at 12:08 PM
Excellent stuff.
PS: Is it just me, or does Barack’s white half take over when he’s dancing?
madne0 on August 11, 2008 at 12:08 PM
Great piece.
drjohn on August 11, 2008 at 12:12 PM
Maybe that was the “pathetic” side of Barack that Michelle was talking about.
wise_man on August 11, 2008 at 12:14 PM
It just get better each time, too.
This has to go down as the #1 viewed youtube video ever.
reaganaut on August 11, 2008 at 12:15 PM
There’s something about watching Helen do the bump and grind that makes me want to hurl…
Wyznowski on August 11, 2008 at 12:18 PM
Funny, but how sad that the clip compiler actually had to sit and listen to hours of Obama. Is there Workers’ Comp for that?
Mrs. Happy Housewife on August 11, 2008 at 12:18 PM
Awesome!!
StephC on August 11, 2008 at 12:19 PM
I question the timing…
CBarker on August 11, 2008 at 12:19 PM
Anyone know what happened in Toronto last night?
Kini on August 11, 2008 at 12:19 PM
That was pretty funny!
becki51758 on August 11, 2008 at 12:21 PM
Which one of the two wins the “most manly” contest?
Entelechy on August 11, 2008 at 12:23 PM
Don’t tell me, Kini. Let me guess.
“In case you missed it this week, this week, there was a tragedy in Toronto, 10,000 people died, an entire town destroyed.”
wise_man on August 11, 2008 at 12:27 PM
what happened to rhythm and soul? We all knew he had none but I think this just proves it.
funny, very funny
ehmygirl on August 11, 2008 at 12:32 PM
Dude, did Obama just rick-roll us?
Not cool, Not cool.
Claypigeon on August 11, 2008 at 12:37 PM
He can bust a move just enough to qualify as a hapless dork.
JammieWearingFool on August 11, 2008 at 12:42 PM
Do they cheat a little and substitute “deserve” for “desert”?
Tom_Shipley on August 11, 2008 at 12:50 PM
this rick roll thing is insidious!
jimmer on August 11, 2008 at 12:55 PM
Change we can roll in.
Shy Guy on August 11, 2008 at 12:55 PM
Ha! Is this how the aliens make him speak?
Tony737 on August 11, 2008 at 1:01 PM
Wow. That would have been really funny about two months ago.
nosliwelyk on August 11, 2008 at 1:12 PM
Hmmm. I think this almost could be applied equally to either, even tho’ she hasn’t run for office.
IrishEyes on August 11, 2008 at 1:36 PM
I see hes got a good command of the “typical white person” dance..
Viper1 on August 11, 2008 at 1:44 PM
Damn the internet police here at work. I can’t see the video.
Torch on August 11, 2008 at 1:52 PM
UGH!
TheSitRep on August 11, 2008 at 2:36 PM
OMG, that was so money!
Whoever did this is my hero!
jdsmith0021 on August 11, 2008 at 3:04 PM
I love this!!!!!
The guy who did this is so clever and patient. Wow, what a great job he did.
UnEasyRider on August 11, 2008 at 3:05 PM
so this goes from the headlines sections to the blog? but the little girl from Florida, Dani, that goes into never never land? nice…. and here I thought we came here for news. and thought our goal was to publish what the MSM won’t.
Kaptain Amerika on August 11, 2008 at 3:11 PM
Barry was Rick rolled! Who woulda thunk it?
I gotta see that again.
Christine on August 11, 2008 at 3:19 PM
RHYTHM…UR DOIN IT WRONG
sulla on August 11, 2008 at 3:36 PM
I so hate you right now…
sulla on August 11, 2008 at 3:36 PM
A word of caution when making criticism. Some don’t take it very well.
wise_man on August 11, 2008 at 3:41 PM
What, is the MSM covering the Barack roll?
mikeyboss on August 11, 2008 at 3:48 PM
What was there to add to the Dani story? It’s not breaking news. It happened three years ago. She’s safely with a family that cares for her now, and she’s getting better.
Tanya on August 11, 2008 at 4:05 PM
His Native American name is “Dances With Lesbians”
Hening on August 11, 2008 at 5:18 PM
Disco is dead!
Right_of_Attila on August 11, 2008 at 5:26 PM
Any way to make him do “Chocolate Rain”? Heck, I think half his acceptance speech is in the lyrics already
Captain Scarlet on August 11, 2008 at 6:19 PM
Big O is about as good a dancer as I am. I can’t stand Ellen. Hey Ellen, quit throwing your “dykeness in my face. Who ever told you you could dance? You’re 50 years old, knock it off, you’re not Peter Pan. Oh, I almost forgot, you’re not funny either.
Jeff on August 11, 2008 at 6:53 PM
Surprised he didn’t do a fist bump with her dykeness.
wepeople on August 11, 2008 at 7:16 PM
Hilarious!!
AprilOrit on August 11, 2008 at 7:16 PM
Did Barry need a teleprompter to do that?
William Teach on August 11, 2008 at 7:26 PM
Too much time on his hands…
darkpixel on August 11, 2008 at 7:36 PM
ROFLMAO!
