In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

Not safe for work



Language aside, the insinuations are disgusting. Also, this is America. We don't "oust" our elected officials like we're some middle eastern dictatorship. We have elections.

I understand the attempt at humor but it's the ideology and the implications that are disturbing.

Not really, you may not like it, but they are not extreme. They are exaggerated for comedic effect, but they are not extreme.

No, it's not really "extreme" but I think my assistant put it best when she called it "creepy".

I see it as an appeal to really base instincts, kind of like that "first time" ad. It doesn't address political issues at all. It simply cloaks the political process as an "us versus them" matter.

You just don't like it because it's not "your side" doing it. It's funny, laugh, and chill out. This country would be so better off if we all took a chill pill and stopped wanting to be offended by everything.

Sounds like YOU are the one going for the "us" versus "them" mentality of politics.

Relax, it was funny.
 
It's not funny...........it is stupid. I would think so regardless of who made it.
 
I guess it's kind of funny if it wasn't political. I just think this kind of humor doesn't fit well with political humor/satire, because it comes off as just making them look stupid instead of walking away with any truth.

What are the implications? Just curious.

It's one of those things that's all fun and games until somebody gets an eye poked out.

It's the hard left that needs to take a drubbing. In particular the MoveOn/MediaMatters loons.

I watched as the Tea Party that I was heavily involved in got ruined by birthers, truthers and psychotic Paulites. The left was coming back from that Code Pink crap but it's stuff like this that is an indication that they're not done yet.

"Oust" the president? We're America. We don't "oust" our elected leaders. We have elections.

"Voter suppression" and "steal the election"? Where is that coming from? Ensuring the validity of elections through such actions as making sure that elections aren't compromised by ineligible voters isn't suppression. It's protecting the electoral process.

And this is somehow subversive? Oust is a very old term and completely appropriate from the participants.

How do you feel about this ad? LOL



I think "oust" and complaints about "stealing the election" are mild in comparison. :shrug:

We don't gather armies against our government either. Just saying.
 
It's confirmed.

Ol Mikey is mentally ill.
 
Michael Moore is a morbidly obese retard who would have the body of Mr. America if he paid as much attention to his diet and exercise as he does making junk films. Then he would just be a retard, instead of a morbidly obese retard.
 
It's a stupid, sad little, patronizing ad.

It's an appeal to the flat taxers and espouses Constitutional guarantees of various freedoms. It's a reminder of some of the factors which gave rise to the American Revolution though a severely oversimplified reminder. It's also a significant step above "I'll punch him in the nuts".

Rick Barber just Palinized the Boston Tea Party. The Boston Tea Party was about a tax BREAK the British wanted to give to legit importers of tea inorder to make them competitive with smugglers avoiding taxes.

LOL...selective outrage. Armies vs. "ousting" at the ballot box. Ok.

EDIT: I was prepared to roll my eyes at something with Moore's name on it, but truth be told, I thought it hysterical and mild by Moore's usual standard.

I just laughed almost as much as I did when I watched Fahrenheit 911. Glad Mikey is finally admitting he makes bathroom humorous pieces and embracing it.
