Have You Seen Mike Tyson’s Impersonation of Herman Cain?

Will Ferrell’s Funny or Die comedy website has only been around for a few years, but already produced some pretty memorable political sketches. The website has released two recent sketches taking on the 2012 Republican field, finding an impersonator for Herman Cain that is perhaps more well known to some than the actual candidate:
Check out their impersonations of some of the other candidates:
Ferrell’s impersonation of President Bush is well known, and led to a 2-hour live and rebroadcasted performance on HBO as the 43rd President left office, entitled “You’re Welcome America.”
The sketches definitely take jabs at the current crop of Republicans running for president, but the site has poked fun at Democrats in the past as well.
What do you think of the latest Funny or Die sketches? All in good fun or a little offensive?

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 1:32pmYea Ali joined the nation of islam, he said that only allah could tell him to go to war, and that he had no conflict with the viet cong, Oh and tyson doing a skit about the tea party hating ? Let’s see I think he had a rape charge, and I think he bit the ear off of hollyfield, even though this is supposed to be comedy, you noticed they had to interject their agenda, with the tea party lies

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 2:07pmNo remember Mike Tyson is the ear biting, sex offender.
Yet MSNBC is calling Cain a sex-offender: http://www.americanparchment.com/video/2011/nov/msnbc_cain_sex.html
This shows how upset I am, I have already posted this MSNBC story but they are absolute idiots, okay no surprise, but it is MSNBC.

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 2:09pmAt the same time, I do agree with Krauthammer and say that Cain needs to stop himself and his camp from accusing anyone else for these leaks. It is simply hurting himself: http://www.thedailycandidate.com/video/2011/nov/krauthammer_cain_accusing.html
We need to go back to the issues, that is where he started winning.

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 2:40pmTHIS THUG who bit the ear off an opponent is the cheapest trash ever alive. He was horrible to Sarah Palin, this hatchet job that people (rivals and WH dems- Rahm Emanuel and Axelrod) attempted on CAIN looks like it’s backfired. WE must stop these attacks. I won’t even read it, I won’t listen to it, I won’t watch it. I am going to ask SCOTT (EDITOR) to stop posting this lowest of low life stuff on the BLAZE. Information on Politics?

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 7:13pmWhen Tyson was around 14, he would wait on elevators, then punch unsuspecting old ladies in the face and steal their purse. Late on he graduated to rape and ear biting.
I will take a slap from Mike on the Tea Party. I know who he is, and where he comes from. About typical of who the left will use.

Posted on November 16, 2011 at 12:48amWhat‘s wrong with Tyson’s speech? Does he have a hearing impairment or did he just learn to talk that way from the people he grew up with? Not sure if that was a mother and father or what? Also, did he get beat up a lot as a kid for being…dumb…and that’s why the only marketable skill he knew was fighting, and that “talent’ extended to his wife and girlfriends).
I’ve always wondered that.

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 3:50pmAgreed. The Blaze should not draw any kind of equivalence between a convicted rapist who bites off the ears of his opponents, and a leading Republican candidate being inundated by innuendo, a comparison which sets up a lay-up for trolls like Survivorseed.

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 1:14pmJROOK have you ever been in a public speaking situation in front of hundreds of people? Not making excuses for anyone but just using common sense. This woman, who he probably didn’t remember, comes up to him right before he is supposed to go on stage to speak. He‘s concentrating on what he’s going to say in a few minutes because he knows every word is going to be dissected by the media. She starts taking to him about who knows what and basically he just acknowledges her presence and might not even look at her face to know who was actually talking to him unless it was a voice he recognized.
Pretty possible scenario I would say since it happens all the time and has happened to me.

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 4:48pm@JROOK.. Well, you all know me I am definitely not a Cain fan in the least but I have to stick up for the man and shoot you down JDOOK.. Do you realize how many people a man that is running for president meets in any one givne hour let alone day ? Yeah he could have met her the day before yesterday, talked to her ,shook her hand, and even hugged her.. Just like he could have met YOU next ,shook your hand and even hugged you, then the next set of people come along and he forgets you and her like a bad case of the mumps.. Don’t be an idiot if in fact they did meet what did they say to eachother ? What ? I’m sure you will believe EVERYTHING SHE says but when he says nothing but politics you will be calling him a liar.. Got it fool ? That is why the blaze doesn’t run moronic stories like that one ,because there is nothing to it and easy to discredit..

Posted on November 9, 2011 at 1:03pmI question Tyson’s cognitive abilities. I wonder if he has ever been checked for any mental delays. I often think that people preyed on him in his life for this reason (the left). I wonder if he would be better off in a group home under supervision, than living by himself. He seems to be his own worst enemy.
