Oh, gross! It’s a “viral marketing scheme” designed to shanghai you into taking a blood oath in support of Barack Obama’s socialist revolution. Just watch this video by the new fake David Plouffe, sign some dumb little online petition, and voila, you will be spared a personal “visit” by Obama’s praetorian guard.

Yes, they sent me an email with a link to this. Weren’t they supposed to lose my email addy down some hole or other when Barry became president? Hah, a likely story.

Where’s David? I thought I’d get a date with the boy wonder after all the damn money I contributed to Barry (back when I had, you know, money). Aaahhh…the good old days.

Whoa! Watching that video makes me feel like I’m in a science fiction movie standing among my peers who are rows upon rows of zombie robots, and we’re getting our instructions from a giant man on a huge screen. YES MASTER. WE WILL OBEY. ENEMIES MUST BE STOPPED. MUST TAKE PLEDGE.

I’ll sign up if one of the things included is being able to hit anyone over the head with a dead fish anytime they utter the word socialism, bring up anything having to do with Ayn Rand, or scream about earmarks.

Who was that guy? And were all the hotties busy today or something?

Just give me some fucking cash. I promise I’ll spend it.

Can’t they afford a teleprompter for this guy? Watching him read notes way off to the side creeps me out.

Did you think all you had to do was give money, vote in the election, and then sit back and wait for 77 virgins? One of the things Obama promised is that he would continue to organize so the agenda we voted for could be accomplished. I guess sniping from the sidelines is more rewarding. Carry on.

Will Overlord Barry exercise droit du seigneur? *finger-cross*

@nothin’ cute: when did we upgrade from 72 to 77 virgins? if that’s the new going rate, count me in.

[re=261230]sarcasticusername[/re]: Virgin inflation…

[re=261289]Bearbloke[/re]: Yes, but you have to inflate the five “bonus” ones yourself.
OK, the whole e-cadre thing is maybe just a little creepy, but on balance, I’ll go for it.
