Your associate editor doesn’t have much in the way of an advertising degree, but is anything more annoying than this libtard fascination with McCain’s “100 years” in Iraq? Wasn’t the expiration date on that idiotic McCain slip back in, say, February? Sure, it only plays a bit part in this new terrible DNC ad, but the surrounding filth is even worse: it argues, in effect, that McCain is not sure at all how Iraq will play out in the short term. Isn’t some other candidate having trouble with that very same thing? [YouTube]










Oh Wonkette loves WALNUTS now, huh??
“Wonkette and WALNUTS, sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g.”
WALNUTS kissing anyone is actually a very disturbing image.
It’s subliminal. The RATS want to remind voters that John McCain is over a 100 years old.
someones been playing with their Etch-a-sketch too much…
I agree the ad is terrible and I hope that it’s only a web-ad (i.e., the DNC isn’t spending much money to run it).
ShortsShorts: is it the immense cheeks that make it so disturbing? Or just the fact the he has old-man smell?
I used to like McCain not too long ago…that was back when he was McCain.
The point is valid, but the quote I find more shocking is the last one to Matt Laur.
“Do you now have a better estimate as to when American forces can come home from Iraq?”
“No, but that’s not too important…”
So, it’s just fine with Walnuts! if the surge needs to be sustained FOREVER.
“Meh. Whatevs. Who gives a fuck? None o’ my kids are fighting! Hahaha! C’mere, you cunt.”
It’s still better than that horrible 100 years moveon.org turd commercial with the yuppie and her baby.
I think Mike Gravel would disagree with the title of this posting.
loudmouthredhead: “Meh. Whatevs. Who gives a fuck? None o’ my kids are fighting! Hahaha! C’mere, you cunt.”
Then he makes creepy-old-man pinchy-fingers and kissy noises and chases Matt Lauer around the studio.
Isn’t time awareness, which gives us our capacity to estimate timeframes one of the first things to go on your head when you get the Alzheimers?
NoWireHangers: God lord I despise that whiny whiner. Hope her kid joins ROTC. And yes it is better than that commercial but just barely. Could they not just hire Jim, Ken and Sara to make commercials highlighting what a mean old fuckwad McCain is? Can it be that difficult to make that hideous crank look bad?

Actually, not that I like the guy, but didn’t his son Jimmy serve in Iraq for awhile? Or is he still there?
100 years isn’t so bad. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a century. Besides, I’m sure he meant to say ‘100 beers’. It just came out wrong due to dementia.
Advocatus_Diaboli: It’s hard to make sweet love to an old, dead guy.
i like the music…
what is it?…The Waltz of the Flesh-Eating Ghouls?
Also, I note it takes a cool 2 grand to buy an add on Wonkette. If we all pool our money together, we could probably make an anti-add against the Slim Shack Girl. I’m a little puzzled why the price is the same for different add run lengths, though. Ah, well.
TGY: I’m with you on the Slim Slack Slut.
I have to say, though, that if the Amuurican people are too lazy and/or stupid to figure out that Walnuts is crazy, then let’s dumb it down for them. McCain = flipflopper = doesn’t know WTF he’s talking about = we’ll never get out of Iraq = bad. I have absolutely no problem with that equation.
Manofsteel: WAlNUTS! website doesn’t say anything about Jimmy serving in Iraq.
BUT I did learn that he has SEVEN kids. That’s more than Romney. That’s like Catholic numbers.

TGY: it would be more fun to have an add that smears someone unfairly. Something like “Obama CHEATED on his taxes and refuses to tell,” or “OBAMA took head from back of limo while smoking crack (taken),” or “McCain accidentally admits he is a 12 year old girl trapped in decaying dody.”
The best part about the oft-played “maybe 100 years” quote is the way he’s slouching angrily when he says it. I didn’t think it was possible to slouch angrily, but McCain has proven me wrong!
TGY: perhaps it would help if we could see some of the other 19 colors occasionally. Just the colors minus the chick, that is.
Fuck Jim Newell. I’m going over to DailyKos. Who’s with me?
if john mc cain were alive, this would never happen. … mr. newell i admire your idealism. but wait till you see what they do to obama …
slim slack girl = butterface
Deepthroat: and would it kill her to comb her hair? (shaking head at kids today)
Anita Cocktail: Thank you! That hair is driving me crazy. Short drive that it is…
NoWireHangers:
Here’s a Time article that references Jimmy about to go to Iraq, though I can’t find anything that says he officially did.
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1220528,00.html
Also, the age difference between McCain’s oldest kid and his youngest is 32 years.
Senator MCCAIN…or Senator McBETRAYUS?
They need a scratch and sniff insert ad associating McCain with mothballs, cedar, and liniment.
gjdodger: lol
This ad is completely dishonest. McCain doesn’t say that it’s “not important” that the troops come home soon. He says it’s “not too important” which means that it is a teeny weeny bit important that they come home soon. Totally different.
well Puerto Rico doesn’t want to become the 51st state, why not annex Iraq? That’s the easy solution and the end vision for da Bushez
ForeignSickSpecialist: I want a scratch and sniff ad with the slim slack girl…I bet she smells like the floor of a nightclub…
TGY: what are you talking about? the american apparel ad is the main reason i come on, i mean to, this site. do you think i read the articles like playboy? that’s one nice ladyboy
mookworthjwilson: oooh, lets bottle that smell. i’ll cut you in 50/50
ForeignSickSpecialist: I guess it’s politically incorrect to say “ben gay”?
anabellum: Yeah, ana, I loved the music too. Very creepy, which is what you want to accompany pics of McCain.
Actually I liked this ad. I think all the anti-Walnuts ads should be like this, just clips of him being his crazy old self, with the emphasis on senile. That’s all you need. Except maybe a few of Bush too. I know, just run constant ads showing that photo of McSenile hugging Bush.
I don’t think it’s emphasizing the 100 years so much as his changing estimates, which, when lined up back-to-back sound utterly insincere/loony and based on anything other than facts.
Oh, and I get that you’re sick of the Slim Slack Girl, but trust me, you don’t comb hair like that unless it’s wet and slathered with conditioner, or it turns into a snarly head of Brillo. Curly hair: I haz it.
