Blazing Saddle (Election 2008)

So for some reason APR though that the elections were over when the half black guy beat the half woman earlier this year but to APR’s surprise last night it’s still going on. Now the half black guy is taking on some old white guy in a cage match hosted by Tom Brokaw.

APR was very disappointed when the Junk Yard Dog didn’t run out with a 2x4 and started whacking some heads.

Because this election is still going on APR wants to add his two cents before the media steals APR’s ideas again.

APR wants to be the first to point out the similarities between Blazing Saddles and the 2008 elections.

You have a charismatic, fast talking black guy with no real experience for his job, who is fighting racial stereotypes, and ends up uniting people of different backgrounds against some old white guys.

APR liked Blazing Saddle better. You know why? It was made in the 70’s when white people could say the N-word and ebonics hadn’t changed the name to Blaz’in Saddlez! But most of all it was a time when you can actually make fun of minorities and Hollywood allowed a Jewish writer, director, actor, and producer to have his white actors use the N-word in movies.

Sadly today you can’t show Blazing Saddle on TV anymore just like you can’t read “Huckleberry Fin” in schools. Huckleberry Fin was a satirical look at southern antebellum society and entrenched racial attitudes in the US at the time but the book is now protested by the political correct police because of Mark Twain’s use of the N-word (which wasn’t a bad word when he wrote the book). So to is Blazing Saddles a satirical look at US society and entrenched racial attitudes which is now over shadowed by the use of the N-word. (Okay who the F just wrote that? APR must have read something on-line)

Here is the 2008 Election cast of Blazing Saddles

Sheriff Bart – Barack Obama (come on if you can’t figure this one out you’re pretty dumb. Here’s a hint: he’s black.)

Governor William J. Lepetomane – John McCain (because of his stature, color, crazy ass comments and his fondness for women)

Bart’s side kick Jim – the white guy Obama picked for his running mate… you know the other old white guy from the senate.

Governor’s dumb secretary – Sarah Palin (no really McCain loves his dumb beauty queen woman) or Tina Fay which ever is free.

Lili Von Shtupp – Hillary Clinton (come on, you know the Republicans sent in the Blackman's Kryptonite and she ended up being his B-word)

The Mayor of Rock Ridge – Fred Thompson (I know he’s a Republican but he looks just like the guy from the movie)

Crazy hillbilly who kept saying the N-word and no one gets it – Rush Limbaugh (I think he says everything but the N-word on his show but you know that’s what he’s trying to say)

Hedley Lamarr – The Republican party (they really run the government and McCain is just being used by them for the GOP’s evil plans).

Mongo – There is no one person who represents Mongo, because Mongo will be played by the media. Yes the media and their love fest for Obama. Mongo was a destructive force sent in to destroy Sheriff Bart and was turned into his B-world just like Hillary.

Best line from the movie and one that will determine the election – We’ll take the N-word and the chinks (c-word was already taken) but we won’t take the Irish.

Sorry McCain (sounds like an Irish name to me) you lose!
