The title says it all. This video produced by Minnesota Majority is absolutely the classic take on the Obama administration as explained by The Examiner's Michael Barone.
Want to know more? Here's how Minnesota Majority explains the genesis of this superb video:
"Gangsta Government is a project of Minnesota Majority, a non-profit government watchdog group. We believe the Obama administration, together with the 111th Congress, will go down in history as one of the most corrupt governments in our nations annals. The strong-armed tactics being employed to force their radical agenda upon the American people is reprehensible.

Well, subtitles would be nice. I’m old and have enough trouble understanding Rap but the audio is a bit muddled. Other than that it’s excellent.
We hail from Chicago, criminal class,
where Capone was the man yea he kicked some ass.
We learned from the best and perfected his ways
now were setting DC ablaze.
Thanks to the press, the people bought our message of hope and change,
now our goals in range.
We told you were gonna spread your wealth around,
Fortune 500 up next for a shakedown.
Lots of new policies we plan to debut,
wont recognize America when we get through.
Dont need a Constitution or the rule of law,
we abuse our power using shock and awe.
[CHORUS]
Were the Gangsta Government! We wear the crown,
we call the shots and shake the people down.
Were the Gangsta Government! Stay out of our way,
Sit-down, shut-up, cuz you have no say.
Never let a crisis go to waste,
so we passed the stimulus bill post haste.
Thousand page bills, see thats the new norm,
nobody reads em no more so well get our reform.
We love to spend trillions that we dont got,
paid back by our children while we all rot.
Just crank up the presses at the Fed Reserve,
gotta get our hands on that bread we so deserve.
To pay off our special interest friends,
to get reelected well spend and spend (Ill buy that for a dollar).
Teachers unions, pro-aborts and greens,
Greasing-up the wheels of the political machine.
[CHORUS]
Private sector takeover nearly complete,
got health and auto industries under our feet.
Student loans and homes you know we cant be beat,
and were just getting started, we take it to the streets.
Grant illegals amnesty, read terrorists their rights,
abolish secret ballots, change marriage overnight.
Well expand social programs to buy more votes, bail-out union pension plans, keep em afloat.
Well name new czars to champion our cause,
unaccountable to Congress and above the law.
We play the race card to squash debate,
accuse our opponents of bigotry and hate.
[CHORUS]
[BREAKDOWN]
Gangsta, gangsta thats what they yelln,
This is the reality, well rob you for your salary.
Gangsta, gangsta thats what they yelln,
This is the reality, well rob you for your salary.
Well use global warming to gain control,
well tax the air you breath and shutdown all the coal.
Offshore drilling, gotta love that ban,
eight bucks a gallon should cut demand.
Putin up some windmills and solar panels,
for a permit youll have to go through our channels.
Regulate your light bulbs, your car and your pad,
listen up kids, governments your new dad!
The rules will only apply to you lil peasants,
but for the elite, lifell be more pleasant.
Were keeping our gulf streams and SUVs,
weve got more important meetings and people to see.
[CHORUS]
Once midterms are over, shit will hit the fan,
lame duck Congress passing all our plans.
The people may object but we dont care,
were large and in charge, gonna grab our share.
Tea party movement is beginning to spread,
gotta call the union thugs to bust some heads.
Sick big sis on those tea party types,
label them as radicals and take away their rights.
We gotta move now twenty-twelve aint far away,
DC is cozy and you know we want to stay.
Well legalize illegals to get us the win,
keep voter fraud alive and were in like Flynn.
[CHORUS]
