Negative Propaganda.

No matter who you favor in the upcoming elections, I hope that you find this as specious and out there as I do. The use of parallel images is such a flagrant display of negative propaganda that I think only the very unimaginative could be fooled. Whatever your view of Obama, this is almost libelous.

It's not even particularly good propaganda. I'm disappointed.

Obama is a black terrorist jewcommie!
And also a Russian spy!
And he eats babies!
Is there a Godwin for comparing people to Castro? I feel like it needs a different name.

Its a McCarthyism.

Wow. That was bad.
Isn't the point of a presidential debate and election season to ask "what change"? We've had this guy under a microscope increasingly for the last year or so.
And the final quote is interesting in the fact that it is true. He IS the most progressive. I thought that was common knowledge (given that McCain is a conservative...). It doesn't even say if Castro supports Obama or not...just that he considers Obama to be the most progressive.

Talking to Palin supporters (http://www.viralvideochart.com/youtube/the_mccainpalin_mob?id=KjxzmaXAg9E)
That was just bad advertisement taken on quality alone, I sat through about a minute then closed the window out of boredom. Forget its point, if it can't even hold my attention for two minutes then it's failed.
Plus, it's OMG the suxorz!

To be fair, you're putting random people on the spot without access to any information and asking them to recall specific events and all that sort of thing...you can't just stick a camera in a persons face and expect them to become instant politicians.
I'm fairly sure the sort of Obama voters who go to rallies and cheer like maniacs when 'change' gets abused as much as 'maverick' wouldn't be all that different in their attitudes.
But yeah...some of those people were pretty...
...Yeah >_>

But "negative propoganda" is so vague. "McCain is old" is actually positive propoganda, as he's actually beyond ancient (that Vietnam war injury was from Guan Xing's spear when he fought for Meng Huo).

Yeah, this one is bad.
Note to self: nix planned commercial showing McCain and Palin feating on babies while watching, Vlad the Impaler style, as people die from impalement that suggests that is what thew Republicans plan to do to people's bank accounts.

Pretty bad, huh. This was sent to me in an email from some of my redneck friends in California - who actually bought it!

You need better friends.
This whole thing is getting disturbing and just a little scary. McCain events are no longer political rallies, they're lynch mobs.

Can anyone tell me why there are like five Sports Illustrated Swimsuit videos under the "related videos" section?

Who did they lynch?

No one yet, of course. :rolleyes: But when someone yells out "He's a terrorist!" and "Kill him!" in reference to a black man, what else would you call it?
