You have GOT to be fucking KIDDING ME.

Snips from the new anti-Obamacare ad aimed at college kids:





Creepy New Political Ad Is Easily One Of The Creepiest Political Ads Of All Time
http://www.buzzfeed.com/dorsey/creepy-new-political-ad-is-easily-one-of-the-creepiest-polit

Bottom of the barrel: located.

[FSogol]

1. That's not Uncle Sam, that's VA Gov Bob McDonnell!

Wonder what happened to his sidekick, Ken Cuccinelli?

[gopiscrap]

24. Best answer of the bunch.

[Jack Rabbit]

28. The Cooch is proving such a bad candidate for governor of Virginia that . . .

. . . that he's about to lose to Terry McAuliffe, who whether in the role of a campaign consultant, party chairman or candidate heretofore could lose any election even if it were sown to the back of his pants.

Yes, people, the GOP has become a stale brand well beyond its shelf life.

[yourout]

2. It may be anti Obama but visually I see it as Congress(old white guys) making womens decisions.

And it is creepy as hell.

[Baitball Blogger]

12. It is an old white guy! Therefore, he represents Congress.

[gopiscrap]

25. Exactly!

[cui bono]

3. The creepiest part is their disconnect.

Republicans are the ones getting all up in a woman's body with legislation.

[gopiscrap]

26. Yeah I was saying this in another post of that clip....

if they want to talk about the government being in our peoples medical decisions they need to look at their stance on reproductive rights and stem cell research.

[Maedhros]

51. No disconnect at all.

Republican strategists know that young people favor a woman's right to choose and oppose governmental intrusion into the doctor-patient relationship. They're trying to mislead young people into thinking it's the Democratic Party than is behind that intrusion. Just like when Fox News shows pictures of scandal-plagued Republicans and puts a "D" next to their name.

[cui bono]

53. You're right. I broke my own rule of never thinking they believe anything they say.

[Maedhros]

61. Republicans don't even believe all the anti-choice twaddle they spew.

They spew it specifically to rile up their rabid base of nitwits.

[truebrit71]

4. Wow...mis-leading much?

[idwiyo]

5. I thought it was about creepy anti-abortion arseholes! Someone needs to re-brand this ad

[The Magistrate]

6. Oh, Yeah --- That Will Win The College Crowd, Sir

[trumad]

7. I love the part when the nurse says...

You signed up for Obamacare?

Yeah I did because it's cheap as shit and it's the only thing I can afford.

Repukes are desperate.

[Rex]

8. What is the matter Will?

Did you think that somewhere out there in space, there was some amount of dignity left in the GOP? The commercial is exactly how the GOP thinks toward women...let us not forget their priorities;

[Lex]

9. Republicans have some creepy-ass minds that's for sure. nt

[roamer65]

10. Last ditch effort to try to kill it, but it will fail.

When people truly get a taste of lower insurance premiums and far greater access to health services, they will become like Canadians who now see health care as a basic human right.

Within a few years Americans will begin to truly want the next logical step...universal single payor.

[Oilwellian]

11. The group responsible for it?

They put their pictures on the internets. Dumb asses.

http://generationopportunity.org/staff/

[Locrian]

16. and surprise surprise - who do you think funds them?

[quote]For a new Koch-funded front group for young people, money for medical bills apparently grows on trees.

Generation Opportunity, a non-profit financed with $5.04 million from a fund controlled by the Koch brothers' lobbying team, just launched a new television advertisement to kick off an anti-Obamacare campaign. The ads, which provides no actual information about health reform and instead seem designed to scare people away from doctor visits, have already been dissected by many in the media. What's more revealing is Generation Opportunity's real agenda, which was explained to Yahoo News in a story unveiling the new campaign (emphasis added):

Their message: You don’t have to sign up for Obamacare. “What we’re trying to communicate is, 'No, you’re actually not required to buy health insurance,'” Generation Opportunity President Evan Feinberg told Yahoo News in an interview about the campaign. “You might have to pay a fine, but that’s going to be cheaper for you and better for you.”[/quote]


http://www.thenation.com/blog/176269/generation-opportunity-new-koch-funded-front-says-youth-are-better-uninsured#


Did you read some of these junior Ayn Rand's profies?! They almost look like parody.

[Oilwellian]

21. No surprise there

I would also bet money the junior Ayn Randians are still insured through their parents health insurance thanks to Obamacare.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

31. How did I know... Evan fucking Feinberg of Pennsylvania.

Aren't they adorable: Travel, favorite drinks, ideal date, cool travel spots... it's like match.com

Pretentious assholes.

[Locrian]

39. I saw that...

"favorite places" is an obvious 'one-upmanship' contest:

[quote]Coolest place you’ve visited: Malta and the Canary Islands (I have a thing for small islands that no one can find on a map.)[/quote]

[beerandjesus]

42. Hahahaha, god DAMN!

I think that "staff" page might be even creepier than the actual video!


Although I have to admit, I enjoyed looking at the pictures and imagining if they actually did get to meet James Madison, Mark Twain, or whoever... because those guys would no doubt kick their asses really hard for all this.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

66. Yes, those two were particularly obnoxious.

Just your average 20-something: elite schools, island hopping and knocking back expensive scotch.

[MuseRider]

13. Rapey.

This is one creepy, rapey video.

So it is OK when they (USA Republicans mainly) are legislating the rape of a rape victim with a large tool by a stranger to maybe help stop abortion but not OK for the ACA (USA) to help women get health care.

[ismnotwasm]

15. Somebody has been watching bad doctor porn

Then stole the idea for a fucked up ad.

[JHB]

22. I think it was Burger King commercials that gave them the idea

Those "King" commercials were creepy in pretty much the same way.

[opiate69]

17. "Bottom of the barrel: located"... if only that were true.. every time I think they've hit bottom...

they just dig even deeper..

[deutsey]

18. Makes me miss "Harry and Louise"

[sinkingfeeling]

19. Yes sir, that's the way to make sure young, college women never

get checked for cervical cancer much less get birth control.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

20. It's exactly backwards. Right wing authoritarian R's and T's are the Vaginal Probers. nt

[SoCalDem]

36. That's what republicans always do.. They take what;s WRONG about THEM

and spend bazillions of dollars to pin it on Democrats... and guess what?> It WORKS for their base & gets them to donate money to millionaires who legislate against their best interests. ..go figure..

[Bernardo de La Paz]

41. The latest nitwittery is Rubio thinking he can blame Obama for "causing" government shutdown. nt

[TRoN33]

23. There are too much irony to this one because...

The Republicans are the one who are pushing for invasive vaginal probe. Republicans must have lost their understanding of the concept of irony itself.

[Hissyspit]

33. It's not irony. It's hypocrisy.

Of a most twisted kind.

[KamaAina]

27. Wonder if that's the same agency that did the King ads for Burger King.

[sarisataka]

29. Good question

I think this one is creepier than the King

[Dawson Leery]

30. Todd Akin is ugly than first though.

[Hissyspit]

32. Sick.

[MADem]

34. Don't let the government play doctor? Then why are they waving around ultrasound wands and

telling women how they should feel about matters of CHOICE?

It ain't Uncle Sam with a speculum that women need fear.

What a craven use of the uterus in politics....again.

If this commercial wasn't created by a male I would be surprised--it's so obvious, so ham-handed, and it assumes that women are stupid, when they aren't.

It's geared more to men than women; men who don't want women to have authority over their persons.

[Blue Owl]

35. Leave it to the GOP to lower the FUBAR

[xfundy]

37. I think they're expecting it to "go viral."

It's beyond a virus. It represents the cancer known as "republicans."

[Maeve]

65. Oh, it's going viral..just not the way they thought!

Makes them look like the tools they are (all jokes intended)

[eppur_se_muova]

67. Well, it did go septic. nt

[Unknown Beatle]

38. This is typical

right wing projecting.

If the dems do something good for the country, the repugs will always try to take credit for it. If the repugs harm the country, they will blame the dems for it. If the repugs want something repealed, they will lie and obfuscate.

It's SOP for the repugs.

[whatchamacallit]

40. A new level of batshit

[spanone]

43. the sickest goddamn motherfuckers ever

[Warpy]

44. Don't kid yourself, they're nowhere near their bottom of the barrel

although they crashed through ours decades ago. Trust me, they cleaned this ad up.

College kids aren't stupid. They got into college, after all, and managed to navigate the maze of loans and part time jobs to be there. Most of them are going to be sensible enough to laugh at this horseshit. The girls, especially, will know that the men wielding the ultrasound wand/rape with an object is a Republican male.

I can't see this ad reaching anyone but the kids who have been sucked into Jesus freak religion, and they're already this nuts.

Signed, Warpy, who remembers antidrug ads in the early 70s that we all laughed uproariously at while we took another toke.

[GoCubsGo]

48. There is no "bottom of the barrel" with that crowd.

They'll always find a way to sink lower.

[Cleita]

50. I think Republican males think women are stupid because it's only the dumb ones who

date them or ones who want their money. I went out a couple of times a few months with a conservative guy and I had to dump him because of the racism, misogynism and other traits he exhibited that seem to be standard with conservatives, even the seemingly well mannered ones. I ran into him and another woman at the beach this weekend. Since we knew each other he invited me to have a coffee with them at the local coffee house down there. I guess they had been dating steadily since he dated me. Honestly, poor woman, she was dumb as a post and he was really handling her. I felt sorry for her. But on paper, he's a good catch for a senior woman, single with a good retirement and owns his own house as well as having some courtly manners. No thanks. It's not worth it to this liberal.

[Cleita]

45. Don't know what to say. The stupid just keeps coming.

Although it seems scare tactics are used by both sides these days. Just sayin'.

[quakerboy]

62. Naw. The scare tactics are used by the same side

wearing different jerseys, pretending to be different sides.

[devilgrrl]

46. I find it interesting that so many Republicans in government are OB/GYN's

[libdem4life]

47. The Uncle Sam Twerk video.Even Miley Cyrus admitted she was acting like a kid because of bad reviews

Probably Campus Crusade For Christ will offer showings? Not. Mostly nice kids who haven't a clue in the real world.

[ET Awful]

49. Hmmm. . . what it reminds me of isn't "Obamacare", but mandated vaginal ultrasounds

required prior to an abortion.

[KansDem]

52. You noticed that too?

Last edited Thu Sep 19, 2013, 04:45 PM - Edit history (1)

From the party of mandated vaginal ultrasounds for women wanting abortions and mandatory drug-testing for welfare recipients.

GOP = "Gang Of hyPocrites"

on edit: Also the party of required state-issued I.D.s for voting...

[quakerboy]

63. Someone should borrow the video,

Alter it just the tiny bit to make it about transvaginal ultrasounds, put it out there, and see which resonates more with people.

[blkmusclmachine]

54. Jumbo Jack Off.

[rocktivity]

55. Easy enough to respond to

Don't let big business play doctor with you, either.


rocktivity

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

60. Would you care to explain why?

[rocktivity]

57. Now I understand what Chuck Todd was talking about

when he said it "wasn't the media's job" to tell the truth about Obamacare.

He wants MSNBC to make money running these commercials!


rocktivity

[Dpm12]

58. What the hell?

N/T

[WCLinolVir]

59. Koch funded slime shows it's obsession with vaginal probes.

These people need treatment.

[muriel_volestrangler]

64. They know that if they make it outrageous, it will get talked about

It's so easy being an immoral PR company employed by the Republicans. You make up the worst kind of bullshit, knowing that there are a significant number of idiots who vote Republican and will believe it. You then put it on the net, knowing that people with morals will say to each other "have you seen this shit?", meaning there are plenty of links to it around the place.

And you have plenty of people, like Fox News, or Chuck Todd, to defend you doing it - they just lie that "both sides do it".

I don't know how to combat this. They clearly have no shame or morals. But I'm not sure that just ignoring it works - that's sort of what we did with the early Tea Party BS, and look how many idiots believed the crap put out then.
