Don't we all wish! Well, you can at least laugh at them a little with the Capitol Steps. The Capitol Steps started as a group of singing Congressional pages at a Christmas party for Charles Percy back in, I think 1982 is how the legend goes. They have kept at it for the last 28 years churning out song after song and a couple dozen albums (including their most recent titled "Liberal Shop of Horrors" which gives you an idea of their level of humor).
In addition to posting a free weekly song on their web site, four times a year they do a radio show. One of those times is the Fourth of July. iTunes just picked up their show and I listened to it at the gym this morning. You can find it on iTunes (for free) or directly at their website. You can hear Obama finally get mad about the oil spill, learn about the true nature of the Barack/Hillary relationship, hear how the Right Will Fight and, perhaps most traumatically, hear the creation of Al Gore's new personal ad.
There is something to offend everyone here...and something to make you laugh at a politician who you think richly deserves a little ridicule.

That is good stuff!
Listening to the Obama imitator, I wonder are there comedians out there who have adopted his mannerisms and voice? Guys used to make a living off of imitating JFK or Nixon.
I have seen them live several times. They used to (and still might) play at Ann Arbor's Summer Fest on the 4th of July.
I enjoy the radio shows, but you do miss some of the visuals and goofy costumes they use.
