FRONT PAGE CONTRIBUTOR

For your amusement: an updated 2008 Obama ad.

It did not age well.  Oh, my, did it not age well.

(Via Battle ’10) Although I suspect that the participants in said video would bitterly argue my observation, assuming that any of them are sober at this moment.  No, wait, it’s 8 AM on the Left Coast; they won’t start the anticipatory heavy drinking until about 1 PM my time.

PS: Vote.

PPS: Hey! If politics is Hollywood for the ugly, does that mean that Hollywood is politics for the stupid?

  • MrMosis

    Hollywood is definitely politics for the stupid.

    No, you fraudlent, lying Behar! Today is the day your feckless, zombie followers are submerged by the Tsunami….Judgement Day!

    …I just watched a Scientology recruiting video.

    That was easily the most disturbing and eerie video of 2008; young chillins from Bel Air and Hollywood being coached by their liberal parents into singing for their Dear Leader.

    Makes one feel….you know….RONERY!!!

    I just threw up a little in my mouth

    It is sickening to watch people so desperate to be led that they chant a man’s name like a krishna prayer.

    …I still can’t believe this stuff worked! Truly a testament to some crazy times.

    I sometimes think if Obama had just ditched this bizarre youth-oriented movementism after he won the primary if half of the disappointment (on the Dem/Independent side, at least) could have been forestalled — and thus mitigated these losses. He probably was going to win in 2008 no matter what, in retrospect, so he didn’t need to build himself up into whatever sort of public entity deserves a creepy video like the above.

    But whatever, congratulations on your new House, guys.

    That’s what it felt like to me too. Too bad cutie Jessica Alba is a such a mindless drone I guess that’s how conservative women must feel listening to George Clooney discuss politics lol

    I had another idea for when one of them says

    “My America
    Yes

    Your America
    No

    Our America
    HELL no

    I travelled the yellow brick road of Trancendental Meditation (TM for those who remember). Now, I’m not here to disparage TM but, as I watched this video, I became acutely aware that the mantra that I was given is dangerously close to what these people are chanting. Yikes!!
    ps: Voted early. Polling place was brisk. Dad, mom and two daughters voted conservative/TP/GOP across the board.

  • MrMosis

    disgusting also.

    A Godless culture leaves a large crop of young people ready to find hope and purpose in a new Great Leader every cycle.

  • GCBWI

    Because i probably would have been compelled to throw something heavy at my tv set/monitor.

    i couldn’t watch all of the improved version….but i did like the LOLsubtitles

  • markvol

    More proof that the Dept of Education is a joke and needs to go.
    Have we already lost a generation of kids?

    as the sweet sound of the newly disenchanted; bitter disillusioned cynics in the making, clinging to their green jobs, Card Check and Obamacare.

  • and1morething

    now on the Day of the Dead 2010, which is also D (dem)-Day at the polls. The piece did remind me of the God-sized hole we each bear. Some very strange people try to put some very strange things in there….

  • mustango

    They wanted OH-ba-MA to do all that for them, but then they went and elected oh-BA-ma.

  • sflcon

    The commercial is nauseating but I love the editing. These morons deserve to be relentlessly mocked until the end of time.
