Top 10 Funniest ‘Right-Sided’ Political Satire Videos of 2011
I set about writing this article thinking it would be easy, but when the editors told me it would be tactless to include my own HILARIOUS videos from 2011, that left me with NINE GAPING holes to fill! Even with me, the field of conservative, right-sided, liberty-loving humorous videos is indeed thin. Sadly, most of the funny is on the other side of the debate, but the exciting thing is how fast that is changing!
2011 was a great year for right-sided funny videos. Below are my top ten, #1 being the best in my view. I hope you will use the comments section to call out any that I’ve missed, as I’m sure there are some, and of course to tell me how I have all these in the wrong order.
#10
Someone on Roger Williams’ staff is brilliant. Good for the person who thought of this, and good for Roger Williams for having the guts to go along with an unconventional ad and give us all a good laugh. Roger Williams is The Donkey Whisperer. Watch him try to turn these stubborn asses into elephants. “You’re not a victim!”
#9
Obama’s fascist AttackWatch.com SNAFU was comedy gold. I wrote a very popular piece on it for PJ Media and one of my favorite videos of 2011 is the AttackWatch commercial parody by Misfit Politics. These guys came out of nowhere and they are just freaking brilliant!
#8
In this video, economically clueless President Obama has a brand new idea to solve the debt: a Kickstarter campaign where everyone can contribute money to solve our debt problems. And like any Kickstarter project, there are gifts depending on the size of your contribution. Such as an “American flag pin. I don’t need it.” Of course you don’t, Barack…would you prefer an Iranian flag pin?
#7
Steven Crowder, talented funny man, had a number of good videos this year, but I love this one titled UNION SUPERPOWER! Featuring “Wisconsin Vern.” It’s informative, funny, and he’s got great chemistry with his pal Wisconsin Vern:
#6
Remy writes wonderfully clever lyrics and can sing in so many styles. In this video, he explains how our soldiers fought and died so we could get groped at airports, among other things.
#5
I had to include one of these Bad Lip Reading parodies even though the creator might be a liberal. They’re funny and not at all mean spirited. The one featuring Rick Perry is a close second to my favorite, which is this one with Ron Paul. “Hoo-Ha, Cherry Soda!”
#4
This is exactly what I think of environmentalists. They’re really just a bunch of nihilistic haters and so I loved this Funny or Die video featuring Don Cheadle as Captain Planet showing his true human-hating colors.
#3
This is one of the funniest things I saw all year so I’m including it even though it’s not technically a “video.” Martin Short wrote a little ditty about the death of Osama bin Laden for Letterman and, well, get a tissue ready – TEARS OF LAUGHTER await you:
#2
Oh Remy, Remy, Remy…I wish we were friends. (Call me!)
#1
This video made a huge splash. I think we were all outraged by Elizabeth Warren’s infamously vehement and disgustingly unjust bitter, envy-filled trashing of the rich, small business owners, and really, any hard-working American. So it was GLORIOUS to see her get made fun of so expertly by actress Molly Erdman, who plays Elizabeth Warren, with writing by Eddie Geller.
Happy New Year Right-Siders! Thanks for your support of political satire!

I need to watch some of these, still, but when I saw the subject matter, I expected “AttackWatch!” to be in the top five. I was a little disappointed to see that it only ranked as #9 on your list. I still crack myself up just by thinking about the way they say “AttackWaaaaatch!” in the video.
I love that one too. I also like their “Day of Rage” one.
Where are the videos of Latma? Surely one of ‘em deserves to be in the 10…
I agree, Latma is great. But, unless I missed it, they didn’t really do much in English in 2011. If I missed it please post because I’d love to see it. All their REALLY awesome work was in 2010 — We Con The World, etc.
Latma does lots of stuff with English subtitles, and it’s all hilarious!
These are all great.
I don’t know if it was Townhall or Weekly Standard that started the following though I found it compelling as well.
Happy New Year all.

That was good! I like all the pop culture clips and the burning $100 bill.
Parody and ridicule are the most effective weapons.
I will not forget your own use of lacy underpants in your recreation of Islamic garb
Priceless.
Glad you think so – now watch the Daily show and Colbert Report.
At last report, socialist & “nutjob” Elizabeth Warren is leading in the Massachusetts senate race.
Not a good sign for the survival of intelligent life in the universe.
That assumes Massachusetts still resides in this universe.
Where was Hitler?!
Brilliant! I LOVED the Captain Planet video, that was hilarious!
Lots of fun! Thanks!
#2 is genius.
Dana Carvey’s Obama impersonation on Jay Leno was also brilliant, especially the way he tries to make everything about someone else’s positions.
Pretty funny. The best professional conservative comedy I’ve seen was on Fox’s “Half Hour News Hour” some years back. That and the David Zucker “American Carol” movie. Unfortunately, conservatives didn’t support those so we’re stuck with youtube amateur productions.
Come on Sunny, where is all the Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s videos?
OH, they were not sarcasm. I see where you were going with this.
But like, what about the gulags, they were good too though. It taught good capitalism. LOL
All are great videos. All rocks.
Hey, got to check out Gay French Muslims (Our Leftist Agend):

Sunny:
Like most right-wingers, you have taken the President’s statements regarding the government’s building of infrastructure which has benefited all businesses and has obviously not been made by those businesses. But you insist that the President stated that “you did not build that” refers to the business overall when you should know that he was referring only to infrastrusture. But you will go on promoting this ill-informed or blatantly untrue position because it is beyond dispute that government has a very prominent role in the success of any business and any economy. All thoughtful independent voters are well aware of this and your party’s feeble attempt to discredit the vital role of government. As a result, the President is sure to be re-elected. I would suggest that if you wish to make a real and credible contribution to political debate rather than just catering to the extremism on the far-right, try to show in a factual and practical way how government is ineffective or destructive to business rather than resorting to playing games with audio clips that are easy to manipulate. You are nbetter than this.

This is a link to a new Parody video making its rounds. I am sure it will irritate guys like Joe Allen, who is clearly smarter than Obama. I mean he knows what Obama meant, when Obama himself has had several versions of walking this comment back since he said it.

I saw this political satire and made me chuckle.
