Ad: Country Exploding In Slow Motion While Obama Raises Money

by Jack Stuef  12:52 pm August 9, 2010


The Republican Party has taken this movie trailer meme and really run with it. Oh, did you think this summer was rather boring in terms of political news? YOU THOUGHT WRONG. That music that plays in slow-motion terrorism movies is playing, and it seems our black president is raising money for his party’s candidates as if he was every single previous president in recent times. SCARY!

There is a ghost of a man with casino chips next to him! Get out of there, Obama! That man has casino chips! He is evil! Oh no! And also a gay man said something about Obama going to enjoy theater! HOW CAN HE ENJOY THEATER WHILST STRAIGHT PEOPLE SUFFER?

“Mr. President, if you had created American jobs, you wouldn’t have to spend so much time trying to save Democrat Senators’ jobs” is not a very succinct tag line, though, and it doesn’t have a pun in it. But it doesn’t matter, as children have been literally choking themselves in the street because Obama is attending fundraisers.

FINALLY someone is here to help us stop all the asploding. Those someones are the National Republican Senatorial Committee, who, unlike this Obama guy, are not interested in raising money or campaigning for candidates.

So please give them some money for their candidates. [YouTube]

I’d give them some money, on the condition that Dick Cheney appears at GOP fundraisers at least two dozen times this year.

Oh, that devious President Obama — if he’s not out ruining America by passing $26 billion jobs legislation, he’s out ruining America by spending all his time fundraising instead of creating jobs. When will the tyranny end?

Katydid August 9, 2010 at 1:03 pm

This is bullshit. He’s creating lots of jobs for Republic advertising people.

PLENTY of Jobs in Today’s ALL VOLUNTEER Army!!!!

And after that, Blackwater/Xe or whatever other mercena . . . :::whoops::: . . . contractor will be hiring for the next BIG WAR!

And if all else fails, you can get a job working the Slurpee machine at that 7/11 in Gardenia where Bin Ladin is hiding out pretending to be another Paki small business ow . . . .

Wait a minute. Was I supposed to disclose that? (These “embed” rules are sooo confusing sometimes.)

I keep thinking there’s no possible way that the republicans could be trying to run on a left-populist line, but I’m obviously wrong. This MUST mean that Republicans have been struggling to pass jobs bills which the Democrats have been blocking. Oh, wait; other way around.

I realize the idiots don’t know this, but here goes. There are three, (3), co-equal branches of Gubbmint. The one, (1), branch that is just lousy with a rightwing, obstructionist minority, would be the branch responsible for “creating jobs”. or “saving jobs”. They’ve filibustered any attempt at the above.

Yeah, but has he been checking for WMDs under his desk?

Mr. President, if you had created American jobs, you wouldn’t have to spend so much time trying to save Democrat Senators’ jobs.

If only there was some sort of legislative body, comprised of both Democrats and Republicans, that actually controlled the federal purse and had the power to write legislation that might lead to job creation…

There’s no way President Palin will waste time on “fund raising”. That is sooo Washington-elitist. She and cajones will be down on the border stopping drug terroristas and future hotel maids from planting their baby-seeds in America.

“…not a very succinct tag line, though, and it doesn’t have a pun in it.”

Alright, I’ll bite:

“Job-seeking Democrat Senators, President Obama feels your campaign.”

We’ll all have jobs picking strawberries in Arizona soon enough.

Mr Blifil August 9, 2010 at 1:41 pm

Yes, but did you know Obama’s father was of African descent (actually all of us are of African descent when you get right down to it….)?

rottenart August 9, 2010 at 1:43 pm

[re=634843]Extemporanus[/re]: How about “Obama is Muslim. Send us cash.”

Hooray For Anything August 9, 2010 at 1:48 pm

The Republicans, of course, don’t need to fund raise because they get their millions of dollars from Jesus and the Ghost of Thomas Jefferson who appear to Michael Steele to hand over millions of dollars to various Republican PACS. Also multi-national corporations whose dicks they endlessly suck.

This calls for a channel change I can believe in.

Aurelio August 9, 2010 at 1:56 pm

It’s an excellent political ad. And I agree with all of it. But it doesn’t make me want to vote for Republicans. It makes me want to go and lie down.

AnnieGetYourFun August 9, 2010 at 2:22 pm

I’m actually kind of amazed that this ad didn’t include poor graphics insinuating that Obama is earning his fundraising money through selling crack to pretty white girls.

GOPCrusher August 9, 2010 at 2:43 pm

Maybe I’m missing something, but I constantly hear these Republiklans complaining that the Democrats are out-fundraising them. If they truly speak for Americans and Americans are sick of the Obama Socialist Muslim Agenda ™, wouldn’t the reverse be true?

Aunt Fancy August 9, 2010 at 3:01 pm

Hey look a Republican ad that includes fear!

Lionel Hutz Esq. August 9, 2010 at 3:32 pm

Shouldn’t the GOP just go back to sending out photos of George W. Bush on Air Force Once during the 9/11 attacks to raise funds?
