I'm Glad You're Enthusiastic, But You Just Made Me Hate Your Candidate: The Daily Nooner (EST)!
Hillary Clinton - Making Our Dreams Come True
Here's a surefire formula for completely alienating anyone who might be on the fence about your candidate: make a YouTube account, rewrite the theme song from a sitcom three decades past its prime, then sing it like it's opening night at the opera in Sturgis, South Dakota and you're the only fat lady in town.
Could this have really been created by a genuine fan, or is this some sort of nefarious right-wing plot designed to shame the lefties into submission? I can't say I'd be particularly surprised either way, to be honest. All I know for sure is that this video totally fucking sucks, and even though it's obviously not an officially sanctioned advertisement, it still kind of makes me hate Hillary Clinton.
If I'd been the brains behind this video, I would've done things a little differently. First of all, I probably would've used the theme song from Three's Company:
Come and stop the Iraq war...
America's waiting for you...
Because this country is hers and hers and his
Clinton for President, woo!
Second of all, I'd make it totally "extreme" and in-your-face. There'd be eagles swooping down and eating field mice (which would be dressed up like terrorists) and sepia-toned Nazis exploding and Stars 'N Bars and all kinds of other shit crammed into every singe frame, but there'd still somehow be time for one of those crazy slow motion shots of a samurai sword cutting through a soda can or an apple or whatever... FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER. I'd probably throw in one of those "bullet time" shots, too, only the "bullets" would be barbs from political opponents and the "dodging" would be clever rhetoric and a sane tax plan.
Oh - and last but not least, I would've made it for Barack Obama. Minor detail there.
[...] starting to think this might have been made by Obama supporters - possibly the same people who made that horrendous Hillary Clinton song - but I don’t really have any time for further investigation; I have this business I’m [...]

Gladstone: One reason for not voting for Hillary: she'll start World War III.
Replywtf, "true", you really expect anyone to read that?
ReplyDon’t believe one optimistic word from any public figure about the economy or humanity in general. They are all part of the problem. Its like a game of Monopoly. In America, the richest 1% now hold 1/2 OF ALL UNITED STATES WEALTH. Unlike ‘lesser’ estimates, this includes all stocks, bonds, cash, and material assets held by America’s richest 1%. Even that filthy pig Oprah acknowledged that it was at about 50% in 2006. Naturally, she put her own ‘humanitarian’ spin on it. Calling attention to her own ‘good will’. WHAT A DISGUSTING HYPOCRITE SLOB. THE RICHEST 1% HAVE LITERALLY MADE WORLD PROSPERITY ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. Don’t fall for all of their ‘humanitarian’ CRAP. ITS A SHAM. THESE PEOPLE ARE CAUSING THE SAME PROBLEMS THEY PRETEND TO CARE ABOUT. Ask any professor of economics. Money does not grow on trees. The government can’t just print up more on a whim. At any given time, there is a relative limit to the wealth within ANY economy of ANY size. So when too much wealth accumulates at the top, the middle class slip further into debt and the lower class further into poverty. A similar rule applies worldwide. The world’s richest 1% now own over 40% of ALL WORLD WEALTH. This is EVEN AFTER you account for all of this ‘good will’ ‘humanitarian’ BS from celebrities and executives. ITS A SHAM. As they get richer and richer, less wealth is left circulating beneath them. This is the single greatest underlying cause for the current US recession. The middle class can no longer afford to sustain their share of the economy. Their wealth has been gradually transfered to the richest 1%. One way or another, we suffer because of their incredible greed. We are talking about TRILLIONS of dollars. Transfered FROM US TO THEM. Over a period of about 27 years. Thats Reaganomics for you. The wealth does not ‘trickle down’ as we were told it would. It just accumulates at the top. Shrinking the middle class and expanding the lower class. Causing a domino effect of socio-economic problems. But the rich will never stop. They will never settle for a reasonable share of ANYTHING. They will do whatever it takes to get even richer. Leaving even less of the pie for the other 99% of us to share. At the same time, they throw back a few tax deductable crumbs and call themselves ‘humanitarians’. IT CAN’T WORK THIS WAY. This is going to end just like a game of Monopoly. The current US recession will drag on for years and lead into the worst US depression of all time. The richest 1% will live like royalty while the rest of us fight over jobs, food, and gasoline. Crime, poverty, and suicide will skyrocket. So don’t fall for all of this PR CRAP from Hollywood, Pro Sports, and Wall Street PIGS. ITS A SHAM. Remember: They are filthy rich EVEN AFTER their tax deductable contributions. Greedy pigs. Now, we are headed for the worst economic and cultural crisis of all time. SEND A “THANK YOU” NOTE TO YOUR FAVORITE MILLIONAIRE. ITS THEIR FAULT. I’m not discounting other factors like China, sub-prime, or gas prices. But all of those factors combined still pale in comparison to that HUGE transfer of wealth to the rich. Anyway, those other factors are all related and further aggrivated because of GREED. If it weren’t for the OBSCENE distribution of wealth within our country, there never would have been such a market for sub-prime to begin with. Which by the way, was another trick whipped up by greedy bankers and executives. IT MAKES THEM RICHER. The credit industry has been ENDORSED by people like Oprah, Ellen, Dr Phil, and many other celebrities. IT MAKES THEM RICHER. So don’t fall for their ‘humanitarian’ BS. ITS A SHAM. NOTHING BUT TAX DEDUCTABLE PR CRAP. Bottom line: The richest 1% will soon tank the largest economy in the world. It will be like nothing we’ve ever seen before. and thats just the beginning. Greed will eventually tank every major economy in the world. Causing millions to suffer and die. Oprah, Angelina, Brad, Bono, and Bill are not part of the solution. They are part of the problem. EXTREME WEALTH HAS MADE WORLD PROSPERITY ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. WITHOUT WORLD PROSPERITY, THERE WILL NEVER BE WORLD PEACE OR ANYTHING EVEN CLOSE. GREED KILLS. IT WILL BE OUR DOWNFALL. Of course, the rich will throw a fit and call me a madman. Of course, their ignorant fans will do the same. You have to expect that. But I speak the truth. If you don’t believe me, then copy this entry and run it by any professor of economics or socio-economics. Then tell a friend. Call the local radio station. Re-post this entry or put it in your own words. Be one of the first to predict the worst economic and cultural crisis of all time and explain its cause. WE ARE IN BIG TROUBLE.
Reply"if you’re going to vote for hillary, all I ask is that you do it because you actually agree with her policies and aren’t doing it because she’s a woman. not even a little bit."
ReplyWhy? If you accept that there really isn't much difference between the two democratic candidates, and you support their policies more or less equally, but you are concerned with shattering the obvious glass ceiling for women in politics, why shouldn't you vote for Hillary for that reason?
I think Obama is a good politician, and I'd vote for him if I could. The lines he lifted from that other guy's speech have jarred with me a little (not because he lifted them, because what they were saying was "you're right, I am vague, but at least I'm inspiring" - and I've always tried to convince people that he's both inspiring and politically firm). But voting for Hillary "because she's a woman" is not such a stupid idea, really.
" “This commercial is evil, but could all the Hillary bashers out there articulate an actual reason for NOT supporting HIllary?”
ReplyIs her vote for the Iraq war enough? It is for me."
She also sat on the Board of Directors of Walmart. (ouch!) That's one of the biggest an anti-union/anti-workers rights corporations in existence.
Unfortunately it's up to the Superdelegates' now.
PS. McCain voted for the Iraq War too and doesn't want to end it anytime soon either. Did anyone read yesterday's NY Times' article about him ?
That singer is just fucking lame.Fire who hired her to sing.
ReplyOML, the singer in the video can't even sing in tune. So Hillary Clinton has one of the biggest campaign warchests in history and she can't even freaking hire a decent freaking singer?? Oy vey...
ReplyAnyway, glad I'm voting for Obama.

Reply..but I'm gonna go ahead and vote Obama
What? You want to vote for Barack OSAMA BIN LADEN (you see what I did there? Also his middle name is Hussein).
ReplyI would like to vote for the person least likely to cater to small but obnoxiously loud special interests who want to advance their own agenda at the expense of my freedom. Or the one who hasn't conveniently changed their message/opinions according to shifts in the political winds. I'm hoping that same candidate will also be least likely to betray my vote and sell out to large corporations at the expense of my savings account/job/children's safety. Of the four remaining candidates, who do you think that might be?
ReplyMost importantly, will he/she be tall?
Also the sitcom theme for an election campaign so should be Charles In Charge.
