ANNALS OF RNC WEB ADS

RNC Makes Cool-Looking Ad That Still Lies About Everything

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

Here’s the RNC’s fancy new web ad arguing that Ben Nelson or any other moderate Democrats would be hypocrites if they didn’t filibuster a motion to proceed on a health care bill. They claim that this would be akin to John Kerry’s famous “for it before I was against it” line on Iraq funding in 2004, which is wrong, although John Kerry is still terrible at speaking. But! We do appreciate the RNC’s production here, for the first time ever. The menacing, twitching figures, the repetition, the gritty industrial vibe. Too bad no one will ever see it.

Call it the Road to Recovery, you queer fink motherfuckers: a web ad from the RNC, to commemorate Obama’s 100 days of Famine, posted yesterday and immediately pulled for being terrible. Watch what appears to be a Southern white man doing his “blacky voice” over video of Obama’s inauguration speech. MORE »

DNC Parodies ‘Big John’ Cornyn Video, Doesn’t Really Explain This

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

The DNC has released a new web ad called “Exxon John” to support its “Exxon-McCain” gimmick. Maybe 50 or 100 political web junkies will recognize that this ad parodies the unintentionally hilarious Sen. John Cornyn video from a couple of months ago, “Big John.” Everyone else in the world, however, will watch this and wonder, “why did the Democrats make this retarded ad?” Also: now that the price of oil has dropped like $30 per barrel in the last few weeks, can these people stop talking about Energy so much? It’s painful to watch both candidates pretend there are any short-term solutions to offer. [YouTube]

Have You Seen John McCain’s Smoky Teacher Ad Yet?

Friday, April 11th, 2008


This is one of those McCain web ads, of which there are four million, that has been garnering some Internet buzz re: how funny it is. But if you haven’t seen it yet, you should maybe do that right now. It involves McCain’s teacher from high school, Ted Williams, rainbow-colored smoke and McCain being a little rat (who bombs people). [YouTube]
