One doesn't necessarily leap from 'parody' to 'copyright infringement' - there are other fair use exemptions. Frankly, (aside from being a somewhat poor piece from a musical standpoint) what he's doing isn't parodying so much as it is intellectual laziness. Dude deserves to get sued.

Note: I am not passing judgement on his politics. Only on his violation of another artist's intellectual property rights and his musical abilities.
