Jesus said we're the best country in the universe?
I thought Jesus would love Mexico more. Go figure.

This video had my stars at the keytar.

Well, I can't give it stars here, but you know what I mean.

I made it to 0:46. That's enough of the joke for me.

There are a bunch more Autotune-the-News episodes on YouTube; they're one of my favorite things of the past few months. #2 (pirates, gay marriage, global warming) and #5 (smokin' lettuce) may be my all-time faves. Go watch them all!

Auto-Tune The News: Becoming More Like Herpes Every Day

I'm with #4 - Autotune the news, even when it doesn't hit it perfectly, is always a wonderful thing. And all the lettuce smoking? I love it.

@ 3 I made it 0:37, you beat me.

Ha ha ... before reading any of these comments, I stopped it at 0:37.

at 2:16, the scroller at the bottom reveals that Jack Black and Jack White are the same person. Also, #8 (Michael Vick) is the best episode.

Michael does some amazing work. Don't you all (commentors) remember his work during the election?
He's gotten recognized enough to have, ahem, Alexa Chung on a video? WEIRD
