[Video Link] "Let's creep in the frozen aisle and think one thought: trick the bridesmaid to get her to take it off." I appreciate the work Bad Lip-Reading does to make politician's speeches bearable.

    “You should target that citizen for extrajudicial killing” is all I got from it.

    The Rick Perry one is better.

    I thought of Captain Beefheart.

    “Reminds me of one dude in college who used to make goats tell time” .. just made me snort orange juice out my nose.

    BLR’s talent knows no bounds.  Their YouTube channel is a must-see.

    Agree with @dielucky — the Rick Perry is dead-on and hilarious.

    • Brainspore

      Both are funny, but I think it’s just easier to do a Rick Perry impression than an Obama one (at least if your voice sounds like BLR’s).

    I’ll chime in as well that the Rick Perry video is spot-on, and way funnier than the Obama version (I haven’t cried from a video in a long while). Regardless of politics, the timing is just better with the Perry video.

    And incidentally… Bad Lip Reading’s videos are a nice counter to the McGurk Effect (self-link).
