    FUCK YA!

  2. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 1:53 pm, August 1st, 2008

    That’s hot.

  3. jagorev says at 1:56 pm, August 1st, 2008

    I look forward to McCain’s riposte: BOMB IRAN. BOMB IRAN. BOMB BOMB BOMB BOMB BOMB IRAN.

  4. supremecourtjester says at 2:00 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Paris Hilton’s father and grandfather gave McCain and the other mixed nuts in the Republican dish on the bar a lot of money–and they aren’t so proud of the commercial. Sometimes you just gotta throw a big contributor’s granddaughter under the Straight Talk Express to make a point.

    What a pathetic, shriveled up old douchenozzle.

    WOW, im speechless.

  9. NebraskashireGentry says at 2:07 pm, August 1st, 2008

    do I apply this directly to my forehead?

  10. Anonymous Office Zombie says at 2:08 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Subtlety? Please - the Democrats are actually trying to win this one, which means reaching out beyond the fold into those vast resevoirs of the ignorant masses. Under those circumstances the sledge hammer of the obvious becomes just the right tool for the job.

  11. Scarab says at 2:11 pm, August 1st, 2008

    That ad is what passes for clever in Republican circles.

  12. greatgooglymoogly says at 2:13 pm, August 1st, 2008

    “I’m also proud of my underwear, this microphone, Thursdays, applesauce, the Green Bay Packers, widgets, an occasional erection, the ninja mutant teenager turtle whatevers, Hallmark greeting cards, sushi, claustrophobia, red clay, and um, my um … my … well, something else, anyway. I’m John McCain, I’m totally out to sea, and I’m proud of that, too.”

  13. junkscience says at 2:14 pm, August 1st, 2008

    that was trippy

  14. StripesAndPlaids says at 2:16 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Finally the DNC has figured out that a short message repeated endlessly is all teh ‘mericun peoples can handle. But if it had been me, I’d gone shorter: “McCain Blows.”

  15. RuperttheBear says at 2:16 pm, August 1st, 2008

    What’s that sizzling sound? Is it OUTBACK TONIGHT? I LUV STEAKS!

  16. KevoTron says at 2:16 pm, August 1st, 2008

    NebraskashireGentry: nice.

    I kept expecting Jerry Springer to come out and tell that lady that John is not the father of her son.

  17. Neilist says at 2:19 pm, August 1st, 2008

    /Snark off

    BRAVO!

    I mean, really . . . Bravo.

    Good darts. Well shot. Nicely played, old bean.

    /Snark on

    MCAIN/SPEARS IN 08: America Deserves TWO Crazy Douchbags!

  18. Norbert says at 2:21 pm, August 1st, 2008

    mercy is for the weak.

  19. The DNC actually didn’t loop footage there. McCain’s Manchurian Candidate controlling system (surgically implanted in his jaw, naturally) shorted out. He was going on like that for a good 5 minutes.

  20. wonk_the_heck says at 2:28 pm, August 1st, 2008

    It’s about time those retarded Republicans catch on that Bambi
    is popular. I just wonder if pride in telling the rest of the
    world to fuck off will trump the need to be adored by non-americans.

  21. glamourdammerung says at 2:29 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Nice to see the Democrats actually trying to win this one.

  22. Hooray For Anything says at 2:30 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Non-subtle, yes, but maybe a bit too meta. Maybe they should have showed him saying “Czechoslovakia” over and over again with the words “He’s old” flashing over and over again. Or show him not understanding the difference between sunnis and shiites and flash the words “He’s an idiot” over and over again. Or mahybe pictures of him knocking over those cans in the supermarket and flash the words “He’s a loser” over and over again.

  23. Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars, Hunnert Dollars…

  24. Count Snarkula says at 2:40 pm, August 1st, 2008

    I really expected at the end that girl was going to put her hand on her hip, swing her head to the side, and say “…and I said, no ya’ll dit’nt…” She had the tone and was geared up, she just wussed out at the very end. Trollop.

  25. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 2:43 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Neilist: Because I’m a snarky asshole, your faux html tags actually activated snark in the first section and deactivated in the second, leading me to believe that you’d vote for that ticket

    /douchebaggery

    Well, surprise! I’d vote for that! Can you imagine all the fantastic news we’d get for eight years?

  26. sati demise says at 2:45 pm, August 1st, 2008

    A Hopey covert operative got into the McCain town hall and actually asked a question?

    Mission accomplished!
    Now she has to go into the undercover protection program for the rest of her life.

  27. Jesus, it’s like a suppository of FAIL.

  28. Anita Cocktail says at 3:00 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Hooray For Anything: Yeah, right, like Joe and Jane SixPack know from Czecheslovakia?

  29. WadISay says at 3:05 pm, August 1st, 2008

    John McCain does not speak for the 2008 Campaign of the Republican Nominee.

  30. problemwithcaring says at 3:57 pm, August 1st, 2008

    WadISay: You do know that his campaign aides actually said that, right?

  31. BadNewsJack says at 4:17 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Next thing you know, the DNC will be comparing McCain to Ethel Merman and Ella Fitzgerald.

  32. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:32 pm, August 1st, 2008

    problemwithcaring: You should drink some Ovaltine. DRINK IT.

  33. The Station Manager says at 6:52 pm, August 1st, 2008

    Now I could be wrong, but I think that they would like to emphasize that McCain is “proud of that commercial”. Just a guess.

  34. The 3-Legged Man says at 2:53 am, August 2nd, 2008

    Not ashamed to admit that Paris gives me the horn.

  35. walnuts ought to be proud of that commercial. its a great tecknologies - just think of it as a radio with MOVING PICTURES amazing what those whippersnappers are coming up with these days. unfortunately americans are no longer the leaders in the radio assemblys anymore. we’ve got to once again take control of this important industry and bring them manufacturing jobs back to america. i can’t sleep at night knowing that some other country controls the means of radio prodcution and moving picture radio production.

  36. defeatism says at 5:31 am, August 2nd, 2008

    When the fuck did the DNC grow a spine? Daddy is PROUD.

  37. schvitzatura says at 6:54 am, August 2nd, 2008

    defeatism: Hojo Dean is what done brung it. He cwaaazy!

  38. Head on! Apply directly to the campaign!
    Head on! Apply directly to the campaign!
    Head on! Apply directly to the campaign!

  39. villageatrois says at 12:36 pm, August 2nd, 2008

    Neilist: McCain/Hilton has a certain… uh, connotation, that McGrumpy may want to endlessly emphasize.
