[edit] Music Video
The video for the song is a satirical parody of senior members of the US Government, particularly President George W. Bush. The clip begins with a number of Government-issue black SUVs screeching to a halt, before Secret Service agents secure the area. A character who is similar in appearance to President Bush then exits one of the SUVs and goes jogging around the town, wearing a grey singlet top and blue boxer shorts. The video mocks Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina as the character runs past a drinks stand marked "Disaster Relief," where he grabs a bottle of water and pours it all over himself. Rising fuel prices are also satirised, as the Bush character runs past a gas station, and sticks the number 10 over the original price of $3.07. The character then engages in an aerobics session with two other suit-wearing characters designed to appear like Secretary-Of-State Condoleezza Rice and Vice-President Dick Cheney. The Cheney character is also depicted driving around the town on a motorised scooter, chasing young people away from an unemployment office into a United States Military Recruiting office, where a sign in the window reads "See Iraq!" Finally, Cheney's well-documented heart condition is mocked towards the end of the video where his character collapses and paramedics attempt to revive him using a defibrillator.
