Though video of the CMA Awards' opening act mocking Obamacare went almost immediately viral, not everyone thought the skit was funny. In fact, some on the left were downright furious that the awards show dared to mock President Barack Obama and his signature health care law.
As reported by TheBlaze, country music superstars Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood performed "Obamacare by Morning," a spoof based on George Strait's remake of Terry Stafford's 1973 classic "Amarillo by Morning," after Paisley faked a back injury. The crowd erupted in applause and sent the Internet buzzing. Even the "Duck Dynasty" crew made a surprise appearance.
