Does this screenshot of a video clip posted to YouTube (and now posted to Wonkette) seem a little, uhh, heavy with logos?
While the actual source of the video clip is unknown, and we found it on the bottom of some weird blog called “God Discussion,” there are five (5) corporate media brand logos stamped all over this video that was not made by any of them. At least we know the video clip person at BuzzFeed was Tivo’ing CNN when he uploaded and embedded it, and then the producers of MSNBC’s The Ed Show copied the video off BuzzFeed and broadcast it on the MSNBC channel, and then someone/some thing called “politicalarticles” (a YouTube user account) uploaded it to the Internet yet again, and now it says “By politicalarticles,” the end. [What?]

Don't care about the logos. However, I am digging the image of Ricky with an imaginary gun to his head.
I like to imagine that picture is Rick, in a rare moment of clarity, saying "There's obviously something very wrong in here".
Or maybe he's saying, “Vote for me or the white boy gets its”—
Listen to him, men. He's just crazy enough to do it.
Nah, he's spinning that finger in a circle, indicating his mental state.
DAMN YOU DASH! I was trying to go for #1 snark and purloined it from me.
Sorry baconz…I have the competitive advantage. This is my last week at work and I have fuck all to do. Good news: Plenty of time for snark. Bad news: I'm going to be unemployed in 3 days.
Oh, damn. I'd like to say this means "More time on Wonkette!" but that really isn't beneficial…
It will be a nice diversion between jumping through unemployment's hoops and interviewing for soulless jobs.
Unemployed?!? So much for this economic recovery I'd been hearing about.
Well…it's sort of a mutual thing. I really suck at this job, but for all that, we all love each other. Good people…I'm just not a good salesman.
I can maybe help you out with a job working on my floor. You'll need a shoe box of fire ants, some crazy glue and the key to department director Dale's office (which he now religiously locks when he's gone).
Office mischief? I'm your man!—
Well, shit, that sucks. Here's hoping it lasts only as long as you want it to.
On the PLUS side, they seem to be hiring all over the place.
Can I have your stapler?
But sorry to hear it. Hope you find something soon, if that's your desire or need or both.
PULL IT, RICK!! PUUUULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL IIIIITTT!!!
Don't pull, squeeze.
That's what she said!
(Sorry — had to.)
And Santorum doth floweth over freely…
Please….he's cleaning ear wax…
I like to think he's saying "If I shave my head you'll see the lobotomy scar right here."
I like to think he's saying, "If thy right brain offend thee, pluck it out."
The fact that he's doing it wrong–hello, IN THE MOUTH, RICK, IN THE MOUTH–makes me want to throw up.
Guns don't go there. Penises do.
Hopefully Ricky is practicing his Budd Dwyer imitation.
I didn't know who that was so I looked him up. Did you know there's a website called bestgore that has video of his suicide? I didn't confirm this however.
Fucking world.
That's why I'm pissed about #1. It's cerebral, which is somthing Baconz doesn't achieve often.
They'd have to re-air that episode of "Webster" and then cut away to it live to achieve the full effect.
Memories. Good TeeVee.
Yo Dawg! I heard you like logos so I put a logo on your logo so you can logo while you logo
Well, we all know that Ricky secretly watches the Logo network when no one is watching…
Does Rick Santorum really need Secret Service protection? Back in my day, a candidate would just hold a bullet between their knees………….
Trust me, Rick has been holding that bullet between his knees for a very long time.
Win!
Dashboard Buddha, thank you for getting the reference. I was afraid that no one would. You rock!
Seems like Depends would be a perfect sponsor for Ricky-poo.
Especially when this subtitle reads "The Politics of the Cloth."
…which is a weekly cable segment hosted by David Vitter…
Very quickly, this has turned from harmless snark to something truly horrifying…
O.o
It took longer to describe where the clip came from than it did for me to decide not to waste time watching it.
I think I saw something like this on that NASCAR race car that blew up last night.
NASCAR. Something blew up. Is someone talking about Mittbot's programming errors again?
It would be even cooler if they showed this on Logo TV.
needs more 'sent from my iphone'
OMG wouldn't it be hilarious if one of the contestants on RuPaul's Drag Race did Ricky? (Literally or figuratively, of course.) I'm thinking Sharon Needles since she hails from Pittsburgh…
Nah, if it was really about 'Satan' the video would last another 9 seconds (yes, Satan is cool enough to go all the way to 66 seconds).
66 seconds? That's really coming quickly.
Look at the logos. He's really into this NASCAR thing.
Mullah Rick? Doesn't sound
KosherHalal.CNN? They're still around?
It is what the olds who don't like being frighten by FOX leave their TVs tuned while they sleep.
And the Dan Lemon hostage crisis is still ongoing.
The politics of the cloth diaper.
Done been logo'd.
And yet Satan has the most enduring brand — go figure.
How about the Politics of Bullshit Made Out of Whole Cloth?
Buzzfeed? With Santorum, it's Buzzkill.
My God, it's got more overlaid logos than a Crooks&Liars video!
Wow, it Blingee'd itself.
On February 28, 2012, Blingee became self-aware. In a panic, they tried to pull the plug…
A memetic poly-alloy.
What the Hell does that mean?
Liquid memes.
There's only one way to stop Satan and Santorum knows it. If elected, he must use all of America's military might to launch a full-blown offensive against the Kingdom of Hell, which is located at the center of the Earth.
As long as Halliburton profits, I'm all for it.
"If I win Baconz will do this"
-Rick Santorum-
I went over to the "God Discussion" you hyperlinked, WonkJr., expecting to wade through an opinionated swamp of verbose socio-religous polemics, but I found myself there lingering just long enough to be offended by their complete misuse of basic grammatical structure and undeveloped grasp of how sentences should go.
I for one welcome our CNMSNBuzzYouette overlords.
♫ Come on baby, do the logo-motion ♪
I used to love me some Grand Funk!
We're an American Brand – woo hoo
Or Little Eva.
Fair and branded.
I spent many years in therapy trying to forget about those hideous multicolored LV bags girls who look up to the Kardashians carried around. All that time and money for nothing.
The fact that there are women who look up to the Kardashians makes me sad for America.
And it doesn't show the subliminal messages:
Obama is for Sharia Gay Marriages
Paid for by the Atheist Teachers of America
Perhaps it is for the best to only view Santorum after it has been filtered through five or so generations of tape. Full, fresh Santorum is often unpleasant.
I thought the Republinuts liked REAL guns, not pretend finger pointy things. Be a man Rick! Use a real pistol!
When it gets to 70 logos, I'll be impressed. That's the number of product tie-ins we can enjoy, allegedly, with The Lorax.
He then rotated his finger telling all the world,what they already knew………he's completely BATSHIT!
Everyone hopping aboard the Crazy Train
This, for some reason, just hits a sore spot with me today – I took the kids to the movies Sunday and had to sit through seven layers of who owned, bought, subsidized, produced and reproduced the movie before it started, while I remembered unhappily that I had paid dearly for all four tickets to the damn thing….
And don't get me started on DVDs! You get about 10 minutes of previews and "coming soons" which you can eventually skip but it's followed by the FBI warning – an Interpol warning – a third warning – a legal disclaimer – a legal disclaimer in Spanish – a legal disclaimer in French – and some more crap after that … and then you get to the movie.
Can't take a ewe into the elevator.
Hell…can't take ewe anywhere.
Why doesn't God have a Merch table at Santorum rallies????
Sorry, I can't comment on Little Ricky right now, I'm mesmerized by the newswhore's attempts to conceal their boners and erect nips while hashing and rehashing the horrific details of our latest school shooting.
I was born for it.
That's just the alcohol talking.
