Parody Song Title:

"He Still Hasn't Found Osama Bin Ladin"

Parody Written by:

Gianni Parmesiani

He won by a hanging chad
Got Al Gore really mad
He is the president
He is the president

Then he beat
John Kerry
Thanks to the military, miltary
He is the president

But he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin
No he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin

Took on the Taliban
Kicked their butts out of Afghanistan
He is the one
They're still on the run

Iraqi people were getting hosed
Saddam needed to be deposed
Only to please his dad
No WMD's

But he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin
No he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin

U.S. forces have been deployed
Many ancient cities have been destroyed, have been destroyed
And he's still president

He's had eight years to keep the world tight
Decide if he's wrong or right, wrong or right
He is the president

But he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin
No he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin
No he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin
No he still hasn't found Osama Bin Ladin

Come on, guys. I'm the new kid on the block. How about some advice! Straight 1's without even a word? If I'm going to keep coming back, I could use a little constructive criticism. Help me out. Thanks.

This parody, Sir, is just too true!! Other than that, it is well done, and note worthy.

It's a rare thing when a n00b actually asks for advice, so I'll do my best.
First, political parodies here, like politics everywhere else, are divisive. They often get straight 1 votes from those who disagree with your views regardless of the quality of your parody. We have our trolls, too. Also, it's tough to keep political parodies funny. Most just come out bitter and angry towards the opposition (not saying there isn't reason to be bitter, just saying)
Second, since parodies here are typically verbal only (parody performances are elsewhere on the site), pacing has to be spot on, meaning syllable matching, and if possible, emphasis matching (this is harder than you think). Your pacing was off a few places, particularly the chorus. If you abbreviated the first syllable of Osama to just 'Sama, pacing is better.
Hopefully other regulars around here will offer some advice, too.
I give this one 333. Don't get discouraged by the ones.
