New McCain Ad Stars The Elephant Man

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

Who will save us now?Good god, what is that…thing? It’s your hopelessly deformed John McCain, cursed by elephantiasis of the Truck Nutz, but he will bravely save America with his Original Maverickness. MORE »


Former McCain Strategist Does Not Like New McCain Strategy

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Cease the tomfoolery!John Weaver left John McCain’s campaign a year ago and ever since he has been mournfully briefing the press on how crappily his old friend is running things. Yesterday, in the wake of the dumb commercial calling Barack Obama a Eurofag pop star, Weaver talked with the Atlantic’s Marc Ambinder and unloaded a little bit more. MORE »


Obama Assaults Elderly Woman In New Commercial

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Barack Obama has a new ad called “Dignity,” and it is all about what a candidate loses in the process of running for President. Ha ha, just kidding! But the part in the end where he strangles the old lady is pretty undignified. [YouTube]

  • UNACCEPTABLE WONKETTE AD NOTED, REMOVED: Argh, so we go out to dinner and come back to see the former nice Obama T-shirts ad “updated” with Barack Obama as a monkey. Sweet. Ad is deleted. Thanks for letting us know. UPDATE: All the ads are gone now, as we can’t get that one ad to vanish. All fixed @ 2:37 a.m.

Dunkin’ Donuts Nixes Terrorist Rachael Ray Ad

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Oh my god she is wearing a scarf she is a teevee cook terror?Remember when those nuts on the right, Michelle Malkin and Charles Johnson, condemned beloved fast food bakery Dunkin’ Donuts for letting teevee chef Rachael Ray wear a Palestinian scarf in this ad? Dunkin’ Donuts first released a statement saying that no, it was not the Palestinian kaffiyeh design at all, just paisley, and a SCARF. Despite being categorically incorrect, the wingnuts have somehow “won” and Dunkin’ Donuts will pull the ad due to the “possibility of misperception.” Jesus. [Boston Globe]

Get A Free Ann Coulter Poster For Your Enemies

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

Oh for christ's sake ...
It’s never too early to do a little Christmas shopping for your worst enemies, especially when the “shopping” is free! Send the people you hate a shitty poster of these beloved “conservative women” bloggers. Ha ha it’s funny because wingnuts are always complaining about “loose women” or whatever. Choose from Ann Coulter smoking on the balcony, Michele Malkin in the woods with a liberal computer, or Keith Richards. (PS — Don’t really do this because the “free” posters actually cost $7. Just print up a few at work. Use all the color cartridges. After all, you’ll be giving them to the people you hate most: the people you work for.) [Free "Luce Lady" Posters]


New Pro-Hillary 527 Isn’t Nearly Mean Enough To Be Funny

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Now that Hillary’s on her last leg, again, what new pro-Hillary 527s will form to release silly ads attacking Barack Obama? One of these — the newly minted “American Leadership Project” — incorporated with the IRS on February 15. According to ABC News, white men in Ohio will be a focus, “and if there are any excess funds Latinos in Texas and middle class families in Pennsylvania will also be targeted.” Anyone else smell a race-baiting ad that will ultimately damage the party but will still be funny forever? After the jump, check out ALP’s first ad. It’s a timid start, but they’ll get there. MORE »


Paultards Seize USA Today!

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

...People on the road and in hotels for Thanksgiving tomorrow are sure to check out USA Today en masse, because that’s just what you do when you’re on the road. As they happily skim through the usual 50-word pieces about new breast cancer research (and 10 billion accompanying pie charts), a full page ad of unusual arrogance, misplaced enthusiasm and opaque references to our Founding Fathers will get in their way. That’s right: The Paultard virus has somehow affected the printing presses of USA Today and will insert a full-page ad (PDF) into tomorrow’s edition. Discuss.


Rudy, Please Don’t Smile. Ever.

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007


Rudy Giuliani has yet to run even one television ad. Strange, right? Well, the wait is over. Today, the Giuliani campaign unleashed his lisping, New Yawk accent on the American People. And guess what? Not one reference to 9/11! But he did sort of hint at it. Actually… those two white columns in the background over his right shoulder do sorta look like the WTC towers. Hmmm. Hey! Don’t play your subliminal games with me, Rudy. Oh, it’s on! And BTW? Soft lighting can’t conceal your creepy smile. You smiling is unnatural. So, please, don’t do it. Ever. Thanks.
