Here is a demo.
It makes you wish that the people we vote into office, no matter what party, actually do what's in the best interest of this nation and focus their efforts on making change rather than lining their own pockets and protecting their industry buddies. This goes for both sides of the aisle with many administrations past, present and future.

Re: These are the stakes

@Apophis

Hey, thanks for responding to my post.

The question is:
How much of what we are seeing is fake jackholes and how much are we seeing from good hearted people who are trying to do the right thing.

Feel free to call me a cynic, but I am as about as likely to trust most of these guys as much as a Dwarf trusts a Mage.
And if you read DragonLance, you'll know, that's not much at all.

Yeah, these two political parties exsists because the other one does. Meaning, without one the other is flacid and weak.

What would happen if both parties decided to have a meeting and put together a list that both of their bases agreed on then came up with legislation. Holy Cow that would be awsome.
Never will happen people. Again, feel free to call me a regular Winston Smith, but something fishy is going on here.

In conclusion, we need to send Jimmy and Timmy from South Park, Colorado to D.C. and let Jimmy do the talking.

When ever someone disagrees he will say:

"I mean, come on."

Yes. I think that Americans have forgotten just how real the threat is. Obviously the GOP wants the ad to make people think the Republicans are the better choice, but that's the same with any political ad. This ad is not ludicrous, it's just politics, playing on the righteous fear that people have of terrorism, not the fear people have of political ads.
