4 Just how many seats are up this year anyways, including state legislature races?

Posted by: Serious Cat at September 23, 2010 10:46 PM (bAySe)

5 Could. That. Music.
Possibly. Be.
Any. More. Dramatic.

Anyhow, awesome ad. And I loved the dig at big government Republicans.

Holy shit that's fantastic.

7 Chills 'n' tears.

The BEST part was the fact that it highlighted how this is NOT about D/R, which is one of the biggest Tea Party misconceptions.

Posted by: Filly at September 23, 2010 11:04 PM (MVKg4)

8 Ahhhh. I like this, especially the poke at Republicans in addition to the Dems. Emailed it out already. What's the music? So familiar...

Posted by: soulpile is... expendable at September 23, 2010 11:16 PM (afWhQ)

9 The music is from Inception.

10 I was chokin up in the middle just like I did at the end of Rudy. Was this done by some shmo blogger. Wow. If there was a producer in Hollywood and they were not socialist, they should hire this guy. Organizing a story line, editing, scoring. The makings of a Kubrick. Oh wait, they are all socialists in Hollywood. Sad. Think of all the wasted talent they don't hire because of ideology.

11 Sweet..

Posted by: Snafu at September 23, 2010 11:46 PM (24jc6)

12 Thanks, Phil. Love that music... knew it was from some movie, but never saw that one, just the trailer.

I like it.

"The wind from the north brings us the sound of the clash of resounding arms. Our brethren are already in the field. Why stand we idle? I know not what course others may take. But, as for me, give me liberty or give me death." Patrick Henry

Never entrust power to anyone not willing to surrender it.

Posted by: VADM (Red) Cuthbert Collingwood RN at September 24, 2010 01:38 AM (UL/HQ)

Damn. Just....damn. Come on, morons and moronettes. We can't let Ronnie down, nor the people who lie under those long rows of white crosses. Or our children and grandchildren.

Take America back from the thieves. Fight for it, and do what it takes to win. This is the most important election since before the Second World War. Even 1980 takes a back seat. Do what it takes to win.

Simply. Awesome.

Thanks & Congratulations to Ben...

This is the sort of saying that works on pretty much every thread we comment on:

Socialists always begin with lies, then move on to theft, enslavement when there is not enough to steal, torture when the slaves are not productive, and murder when the slaves try to escape. The next generation raised that lies, theft, torture and murder are forms of virtue, move on to perversion.

26 Edit it to one minute, including removing Palin (for "broad reach" purposes), and buy slots during every NFL 4th quarter broadcast the last 3 Sundays before Nov 2. It tells the story well.

Posted by: Herr Morgenholz at September 24, 2010 03:59 AM (h/zKr)

27 Ditto on everything said above.. freakin' awesome..

Posted by: ChiTown Jerry at September 24, 2010 04:01 AM (Do528)

28 Most excellent. The only GOP faces I saw were Palin and Mike Pence. Think that's a coincidence?

Posted by: GrumpyUnk at September 24, 2010 04:10 AM (TkQ9R)

29 The only ones not highlighted as examples. Duh on me.

Posted by: GrumpyUnk at September 24, 2010 04:11 AM (TkQ9R)

30 The beltway crowd does need to worry some when mom & pop and Joe Sixpack take to the streets. That is showing up in the primaries.

Joe Sixpack normally doesn't vote in the primaries. He is now. This election is going to be a watershed event and "conventional wisdom" is out the window.

Remember that.

Posted by: Vic at September 24, 2010 04:12 AM (/jbAw)

31 Thank you. That sent chills. And makes me want to make some pudding. Lots and lots of lovely pudding.

Posted by: NotAMolly at September 24, 2010 04:13 AM (ADJFU)

Good work. I like Herr's idea. Hopefully an outside group like Republican Trust could do the releasing.

Posted by: Delta Smelt at September 24, 2010 04:16 AM (A0VTZ)

33 And thanks for the FB posting.

Liberal heads going asplodey is a lovely sound!

Posted by: NotAMolly at September 24, 2010 04:16 AM (ADJFU)

34 Fox's Headline story is that the expiring tax rates won't be considered until after the election. Wonder what else they have planned, the lame fucks.

Members, you're going to be forced to suck a little cock to win this election. Don't honor those conservative bastards by sucking all the cock, but just enough to win this election.

KayinMaine, I hope you don't skip your meds on November 2 or you might be too dangerous to handle the big surprise.

47 It's kinda' shocking the mental institutions in Maine can't find room for Kay . Poor thing really is a danger to herself and others .

Posted by: awkward davies at September 24, 2010 06:03 AM (YCW1b)

48 I.....like it! However, after the "awakened a sleeping giant" line I kept waiting for "and filled it with a terrible resolve." Maybe it's better that they didn't include it, but may me think of it anyway. The giant is indeed awake and filled with resolve. The only ones who will think it terrible are those who stand in its way.

54 Hearing Reagan .. gives me chills.

Posted by: Timbo at September 24, 2010 07:05 AM (ph9vn)

55 That was bad-ass. Can't wait for November.

Beautiful bookending with RR. Damn I miss that guy. One thing I'll say for Mark Levin (justly smacked around a bit lately): every now and then he'll play LONG clips from foundational Reagan speeches, and they're awesome. I wish we had more conservative leaders who could connect like that today.

Remember that in the liberal conventional wisdom, Reagan was a dummy and 57 States is a brilliant intellectual.

Posted by: P.M. at September 24, 2010 07:09 AM (2AfKV)

56 Jeez, AMAZING!

Says it all.

Made me cry.

The future will not be easy, but the American people are not ready to lie down and become government drones. We will not submit!

59 Posted by: KayInMaine Once the Revolution comes, Kay, your betters will find your mental instability to be a net drain on productivity and promptly end you. I doubt they'll waste a bullet. Probably, they'll just dump you in some Florida swamp with a bunch of other formerly useful idiots and let the gators have at you.

60 I'm 56 years old and I had tears running down my face. I don't know if it was joy at whats coming, or sorrow at what has been done. I do know one thing.

I LOVE MY FUCKING COUNTRY AND I WANT IT BACK!!!!!

Posted by: Max Entropy at September 24, 2010 10:39 AM (la188)

Brilliant. The first half builds up the anger and the second half builds up the hope. I don't think I've ever seen anything like this before that made me so emotional. I watched it a second time to see if it made me feel the same way. It did.

Posted by: Laurie at September 24, 2010 11:32 AM (cjcyR)

64 I usually look at things things with a more critical eye, but I might be going soft. By the time Reagan spoke again at the end, I was in tears.

If the thought of this great experiment, democracy, and 200+ years of fighting for it don't bring someone to tears, well, you're missing a heart.

Posted by: jmflynny at September 24, 2010 11:55 AM (r+nxg)

65 Dear Lord.

I saw KayinMaine pop up and thought surely someone was doing a parody.

Posted by: jmflynny at September 24, 2010 11:58 AM (r+nxg)

66 That cocksucker Frank (literally) .... I get so spittin' mad when I hear him open his fat, stupid mouth.

I am "rich" in the sense that I have managed to put away about $2M for my retirement. I went to work for 43 years, lived a frugal lifestyle, held off on buying a boat, or taking that European holiday, and saved what I could so that my retirement life would be comfortable.

To hear this sonofabitch now speak about how he can tax us "rich, to pay for this" sets my blood boiling. To pay for what? Your goddamned reckless spending sprees? To pay for your insistence that people who couldn't afford mortgages MUST be permitted to borrow money they could not pay back? And your relentless, non-stop efforts to defend such policies when it was quite apparent that the sky was finally falling?

I should pay for it?

Suck my balls, you moronic cocksucker....

68 All it takes these days is the sound of Reagan's voice to start the crying for me. Nov. can't get here fast enough.

Posted by: winewife at September 24, 2010 12:38 PM (OnM4p)

69 Reagan almost destroyed this nation. Do the research! When he left office, we had one of the highest deficits. Clinton got us back on track and then W. came in and jacked it up again with all his unwanted wars and tax cuts for the rich. Please do some checking before you believe everything you're told and, don't forget, Reagan was an actor! Everyone needs to question and become educated!

72 I like the lady screaming "WE THE PEOPLE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!" Can we yell that when we go vote? Because I've felt like doing that every day since Election Day '08.

My brother-in-law had reached across the aisle and punched me in the leg. He'd been trying to get my attention for a while.Monster Beats
"How do the headphones sound?"

"They sound good, jerk. I couldn't hear a thing you were saying." Apparently, the Beats' noise-canceling feature was working as advertised.
I had just discovered it. Moments earlier, I'd settled into my seat and plugged the Beats' seductive red cable into my iPod Nano's mini-jack. I'd selected an album and pressed Play. Nothing.
