17 13 Maybe they shouldn't have used the one of the children of the corn to try to make their point.

18 Wonder how long before the Left claims anyone wondered about Red China is RRRacist!?

19 Very ineffective. Straight talk is all that is needed. No need for melodramatic music and hints of Chinese communism coming to America. Everybody can easily see what the problem is when we have a $1.7 trillion deficit. Don't even have to mention Obama (makes it seem personal and racist). This ad isn't going to be effective.

20 the 2nd video is trying too hard. I like the first one. Make it about what Obama and the corruptocrats are doing to our future.

I've got seven years on you so let's party!

25 The second "ad" is just laughably juvenile and does more harm being seen on this blog than good. Is there an adult in the room?

26 The first one looks like a time traveler from 2004 made this.

Boring.

27 Ads have to be more straight forward.  Every time I see that stupid AARP ad saying, "What were you thinking," I wonder why they say only 100 billion dollars are to be cut from Medicare.  Barry cut 500 billion.  There have been no ads about that particular item.

28 brb ... reaping the unearned rewards of GOP division.

29 That girls looks like she's about to have a bucket of blood poured over her head, after which she just stands there until - suddenly - her eyes open and she holds her arms out in a weird way out from her torso, and everyone around her starts to catch fire...

30 He promised us ample hooters and happy cooters and all we got was a jackboot in the pooter.

31 Yet the GOP plan is to give Obama a blank check in exchange for um, uh, nothing really.

Guess what else the GOP is giving out by passing the speakers bill? A Democrat sweep in 2012.

32 The first ad is running on Fox right now

33 evil tea party people are going to take away all your welfares and make you eat dog food.

And I don't mean Alpo.  I mean that cheap stuff that they sell out of the bins.

34 OK, I should read the blog, huh?

35 23 Maybe good news:  Senate reiterates the Boehner plan won't pass.

They really, really, really don't want the House passing the plan and putting it in their laps.  Obama doesn't want to be in the position of having to sign or veto it.

GOP Congressmen:  Pass this plan.

OK, Ace. You're a guy with some semblance of aesthetic sense, who can pretty much tell the difference between shit and crap, and you think that's OK? If I had a "destroy the universe" button, I'd have pushed it about five seconds into that ad, because the thought of cohabiting the cosmos with it, the people who made it, and anyone who thinks it's not shit was too terrible to endure.

I don't think these cute and funny/ironic ads work as well as the straight pitch (like the one above).

I can't watch the second one, but the first one isn't "straight." It's more emotionally hyperbolic than Thus Spake Zarathustra.

You really don't see that? I can't believe it. Are you "Yeah, fuckin' Fox chumps go for that kinda junk"-ing it? Because they don't.

52 The second one was terrible. That's more JEF watching than I have done in a year. Admiral Ackbar didn't warn me.

53 Evil dems want to play cornholia with your kids!

54

The problem with the second ad it that it's almost 2 minutes long.

The problem with both ads is that hardly anyone is going to see them.

Most people are like sports fans when it comes to public policy. They pick a team and get behind it. At the same time, they pull for bad things to befall their team's rival. Red Sox fans will cheer for the Red Sox, no matter what they do or how they do it. They also root against the Yankees. Democrats want to see our country win wars if winning helps the Democrats. They'll have us lose wars if that hurts the Republicans. It doesn't matter what's at stake. Most people still don't care and won't care, except inasmuch as it helps or hurts their team.

56 You know how the Dems are criticizing that Crossroads GPS ad? The font, they're saying the font resembles Comic Sans which somehow means the GOP is out of touch, i shit you not.

You can't say it hasn't been working for all of those people who've been feeding at the public trough through 2011.

Just think of it as musical chairs and sit down as fast as you can when the music stops.

I thought that was what it was but when I went to u-tube to find it I couldn't find that scene.

I may have pre-spoken, but I remember all those hominids whomping on each other with appropriately sized femurs right at the beginning, which I thought symbolized their aggressive nature prior to the arrival of the monolith, that they were into killing and eating their enemies.

I could be wrong, tho'. Damn sure wouldn't be the first time...

74 People seem to be on edge this summer

75 So I'll support the policy of kicking the can down the road until a few years after I'm dead.  Probably the best I can hope for.

Super.   So you essentially pledge your life Playboy collection,  your fortune outstanding credit card bills and your sacred honor meh?

There can only be a fair and just God if your children do in fact put you in a shitty home, long after you've suffered gumming your sugar cookies and wetting your flood pants.

May you also be forced to sit through the worst Elementary School choirs every.single.Christmas.

76 No.  their warlike nature didn't change; the monolith inspired one tribe to pick up bones to beat the crap out of their enemies with.  Tool use.  That was what the monolith brought, not a peaceful outlook.

77

It's almost as if the GOP leadership doesn't want to cut spending!

No shit. Rush hit on this in the few minutes I could catch his show today. He said that everyone in Washington considers spending as power, which I suppose it does/is.

78 If you need any evidence that the Republican Party is the Juvenile Wing of the Democrat Party these two ads are it. These ads are purposely designed to make Republicans unelectable.

79 The problem with the second ad isn't the tone, it's the fact that the clips of Obama that immediately follow the "2-1/2 YEARS LATER" title card don't adequately capture his divisiveness and his absence of leadership.  A few "the Republicans are holding a gun to our heads" clips would have been a far better contrast to the preceding "togetherness" clips, and a couple of petulant whines about being expected to put forward his own plan (or Carney saying "do you need something written down?" or others asking where Obama's leadership is) would have illustrated the lack of leadership theme.  The "I've been here" sequence of him goofing off would then have had more impact.

80 "It's almost as if the GOP leadership doesn't want to cut spending!" BINGO. We have a winner. Republicans want to LOOK LIKE they want to cut spending. Democrats want to LOOK LIKE they're helping the little guy. They're all on the same team.

We now return to your regularly scheduled programming.

86 The hominids in 2001 start out as vegetarians living in harmony with the other grass burners and being prey to the leopards and other large carnivores. The larger more aggressive tribe runs the smaller group off the water hole. The smaller group then finds the monolith and and are inspired to create tools which they use to make tapir stew and beat the shit out of the other tribe.

"Nice day for this time of winter." >> "I don't ever remember it being this warm in the winter. If you ever needed proof of global warming ... "

"Who do you want in the World Series?" >> "Detroit, because the poor people in Detroit haven't had anything to cheer about in so long." This led into a tirade about the imbicile in the White House.

109 #75 Mr. Harrison,

the republican plan doesn't actually reduce spending.  All it does is reduce the rate of increase in spending.

I will say it again.  All the republican plan does is reduce the rate of increase in spending.

I don't know where you are from, but that isn't a cut in spending, except in Washington.   That is the beauty of base line budgeting.  You see, next year's base line, as calculated by the CBO includes an automatic increase over this years budget.

I'm getting the feeling that no one likes the kick the can plan, but that is, in effect, what is being proposed.  When you are broke, borrowing money for a steak dinner, instead of lobster, isn't really helping your overall financial situation.

110
I think they're both great, but they need to be on primetime t.v. Anyone (besides George Soros) have a couple million bucks to spare?

I'd like to see a non-nuts version of Ross Perot or Jesse Ventura or Donald Trump point to our current economic woes and say "It's doesn't take an economist to recognize a mess, and this is a mess. The Democrats caused this mess; here's the proof. The Republicans knew what was coming for years and didn't do anything about it. Vote out the party that did worse.

Ladies and Gentlemen will not, and the rest of the morons must not make fun of Michelle Obama in any way. 

I did something similar to what you are proposing,( quite tastefully tongue in cheek I thought), and Ace not only banned me from AoS, he also banned me from Confederate Yankee, The Jawa Report and Protein Wisdom.  (It's because of the domain, mu.nu.)

I will say that I've learned my lesson, and that I don't like having to go outside to get access to my neighbor's wireless network, either.  No matter how funny or apt your comment regarding Michelle Obama might be, Ace does not want his site to be brought down to the level of the Huffington Post, MSNBC or Real Time.  Or for that matter The Daily Show.

The wives and children of political opponents are strictly off limits.  Perhaps you might content yourself with a Tony Weiner/Boehner riff, or failing that remind everyone that Hillary Clinton thinks that Assad is a reformer.

122 But, by that logic, shouldn't they replace the beef patties from Texas with crimmigrants from California?

may i add my .02$ ?

My ex was an ad guy. And an editor. And the guy who didn everything for Ahnuld's campaigns.  yeah blame him, evil eveil man for making that creep look plausible to you all. Ok  I have some observations.

the ad people hate republicans.

My ex's boss was one of the 5 republicans in an 8 storey building full of ad people. He owned the business but theres a lotta ways to screw things up in production. Has it ever occurred to the republicans that they cant just "Hire the BEST AD GUYS? " they will fuck you over subtly if they hate you.

And they hate us.

Now it could just be that i finally cleaned out a closet full of his shit today that i will get into this but they dont mind taking your money and not giving you what you need, but giving you what you want, and asked for, in a way that wont work, but leaves the client happy.

they can do that as ad people they know how to sell product.

Unless they can get ad people who are DEVOTED and talented at every level of production, to take on the Campaign projects you will get screwed EVER DAMN TIME in production.

They loves them some obama. THEY HATE US. And at least one hates us very super alot because anything conservative reminds him of his ex wife who is worse than satan loved her horse more than him and RUINED HIS LIFE (by getting all fucked up and depressed about him wanting to be a polygamist or something.) Insert Father who divorced mom, Parents who wont accept gayness, family who never liked shiksa wife, etc.... the list goes on forever but they have millions of reasons to hate us, but for each person in NY, Hollywood, or SF we have few allies and many many people looking to stab us in the back or strangle a good idea in the cradle.

My other theory is that the dems have something on almost every repub in politics and they are blackmailing them. This is why they act scared to open their mouths in any effective way.

your mileage may vary but i know what i have seen from my own close up view of politics and campaign ads in Hollywood. You gotta have a friend on the Inside. Ahnuld's was Shriver.

126 Too funny

127 So Gushka, what you're saying is that you're single and available?

128 #113 My guess is that right now Fish the Impaler is wondering why he is having internet problems.

Though strangely, he is only unable to access a few sites.

It's no joke.  Being banned hurt.

Oh, fu## me, I am pathetic.

So... baby powder...

Is that made from real, or artifical babies?

sadly for the interested, this means i am now off the market and taken by a Marine

Its kinda funny because i think even the Ex realizes the enlisted guy is a better man in every damn way. And his new wife (the old mistress) guesses i consider her an object of pity. Guess she can deal with his boyfriends now.

And flea collars.  What's up with that?

132 the ad people hate republicans. Posted by: Gushka still hasnt settled down at July 27, 2011 07:32 PM (QNeKQ) I am not an expert, but from what I know of the business this is true x10. And being leftists, they are willing to lie and say they're doing their best while sabotaging it. But, being the stupid party, we keep hiring them. Kind of like letting CNN host Republican Presidential debates (right right right right right right right right - oh, and coke or pepsi?).

133 I stole that first one. It went well with my breakfast (yeah, I'm up late, sue me) mix of feminist folly and general life feedings for my masses (two readers). Hush it, they are addicted is all, I think. I try for no readers but I even I have limits.

135 This one has been on TV:  Washington Could Learn a Lot from a Drug Addict

136 The first ad was clever and impactful. The Negotiator ad was kinda dumb... even for a partisan hack such as myself. =)

137 Actually I'm heading to Canada because this country's got too many illegal mexicans running around messing things up.

138 How's Gabe doin' with his "may you live in interesting times" week? Is he doing "hope" or "change" this afternoon?
