The prospect of the Senate staying in session until Christmas Eve to pass a health care bill had Illinois Democrat Roland W. Burris waxing poetic on the floor Tuesday morning with a set of verses in the style of " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas."

Taking liberties with Clement Clarke Moore's poetic meter and rhymes, Burris began, "It was the night before Christmas, and all through the Senate / The right held up our health care bill, no matter what was in it."

You've seen Rep. Joe Wilson heckle President Obama during last week's speech to a joint session of Congress. And you've seen Kanye West interrupt Taylor Swift's acceptance speech during the MTV Video Music Awards. Now watch Kanye West interrupt Obama in the latest, greatest YouTube Remix.

(UPDATE - Maybe this is why Pres. Obama called Kanye a "jackass.")

Okay, so the sarcasm on this one is a bit thick, but Mother Jones's anti-health care ad spoof is entertaining nonetheless. The spoof addresses some of the more outrageous claims by health care overhaul opponents, ones mostly found false by a CQ Politics health care fact check on claims by both sides of the debate. But hyperbole is a dish best served warm, kind of like your still-beating heart to a blood-thirsty Nancy Pelosi (you just gotta watch the clip to figure that one out).

Auto-Tune the News 8 is out, and it's the best one yet. Very catchy, especially the 'those geese are cooked' refrain. For the uninitiated, check some of the past episodes, here and here.

Have you always wanted to talk like a politician? This helpful guide teaches you how and when it's appropriate to pull a "Sanford," get all "Beck-y" and drop a "Rahm Bomb."

In honor of Minnesota's newest senator, we decided to compile some of our favorite videos of the former funnyman being funny. The first video of Franken drawing a map of the contiguous 48 states - one of the few lighter moments to surface from a campaign that was as serious as a heart attack - is more impressive than ha-ha funny. But it does contain a pretty good line: "Why is Minnesota so windy? Because the Dakotas blow and Wisconsin sucks." Take that, cheese-state.

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has been having a rough go lately, most-recently getting grilled at a Congressional hearing about his role in the Bank of America-Merrill Lynch merger. Some are even speculating Bernanke could be ousted when his 4-year term expires in January. All of which gives us a good reason to post one of our favorite YouTube parodies of all time. Back in 2006, a group of Columbia Business School students made an amazing send-up of Police's "Every Breath You Take," starring their school's dean, Glenn Hubbard, who reportedly wanted the Fed Chair job. Today, you could sub out Hubbard for Larry Summers and you've got pretty much the same song...

This one is an oldie (pun intended) but a goodie. Barack Obama is the first non-Baby Boomer president, and now a generation accustomed to being in charge is realizing how old it is. Holy c*** indeed!

If you've ever lived in or around Washington, DC, you've likely been to Arlington, Virginia, the upscale town just across the Potomac River from the District. Of course, like every seemingly pleasant community there is a dark side to Arlington, a seedy underbelly that can only be captured in an Internet spoof rap.

Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele said the GOP needs a "hip-hop makeover," and now his call has been answered. Enter the Young Cons, short for Young Conservatives, and their Young Con Anthem. These rapping Reagan-ites illuminate their brand of Compassionate Conservatism 2.0 with lines like "I debate any poser who don't shoot straight/Government spending needs to deflate/Your ideas are lightweight/Ya careers in checkmate" and "Don't matter if your gay, straight, Christian or Muslim/There's one thing we all hate, called socialism."
