Wow, any respect I had for any American political group just died stillborn. I'm starting to think the only thing that would surprise me now is if 'Free Speech Zones' became gulags for evil leftists.
And I wouldn't be surprised if that was the topic of a political ad.

Here's the thing, Political Parties are covered by it, by (non-political) third parties are not. IN other words, whereas the Republicans and Democrats have to bend over backwards to fit the crieteria, Moveon.org doesn't have to do jack shit, and gets to put out whatever the hell it wants.Joe wrote:I'm not a big McCain-Feingold fan either, but what does the ad have to do with it?Straha wrote:But it is the perfect example of why McCain-Feingold is a complete and total piece of garbage, that deserves to be burned no matter what Sandra Day O'Connor's most massive brain fart says.Vympel wrote:Shep- the Hitler ad was a submission out of 1,500 to a website, made by some crazed leftie who is good at flash animation.

I could hardly believe that it was true. And then I looked it up.
Note: viewer discretion advised. It's even worse with their descriptions of the visuals. My respect for politics just hit a new low.

It's quite the insult to the American people- what a load of regressive shit.

I can't help but wonder in the back of my dirty little mind if "sushi-eating" is some sort of euphemism for cunnilingus.

Since the 'Club for Growth' is attacking Alaska's Republican Congressman Don Young as a 'RINO' for voting against the relaxed overtime rules, I'd say that it's a Karl Rove front group.

Don't judge the entirety based on the sampling of a vocal few. Remember: The rational political groups are the ones that don't make much noise.

That's ridiculous--more so because it's being run by a democrat-only phase of the race! I think the ad is only running in Iowa, though, so at least it isn't a national campaign.
