Mfarhanonline Social Media News: The latest political parody — Sh*t Politicians Say — just hit YouTube , keeping the unstoppable Sh*t Insert Stereotype Say meme alive for yet another day. Go ahead and bemoan the meme all you want; you’re still going to watch the clip. And you should because it has multiple purposes. Other than trying to induce laughs, the video serves as an advertisement disguised as a meme for Americans Elect . Let’s call it a meme-vertisement for the the group’s online political campaign.

Moral fiber, family values, trust me, three-point plan, earmarks, tough question, children are our future, Washington outsider, jobs, my opponent — all sound familiar.
