We did a little digging around about Los Mariachi Aguilas de Mexico—the mariachis who sang “Viva Obama!” until our ears bled. Mainly because we wanted to bust Obama for hiring non-American musicians for his American presidential campaign. What we discovered was far worse than we could have ever imagined: They’re from Ventura County, California. Pretty insincere for a guy who’s promising to take care of Tejanos “desde San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Dallas o El Valle, de Houston o del Paso.” By hiring mariachis from out of state? When there are hundreds of Mariachi troops in Texas? Not to mention film crews. Take a gander at where this “Tejano” spot was shot:

Tisk, tisk, our Gran Amigo.

We will no longer stand for these smear tactics. Viva Obama!

He’d look sexier in the cowbot hat if it were paired with ass-less chaps………..and mechanically bull.

I wonder if Hillary would wear a durag in order to get the black vote?

@Marco: that would be so tight.

Viva Obama sounds good, imagine that song with Tex-Mex or Norteño?
