Best Political Ad Ever

My sister turned me on to this political ad from South Dakota.  While it is sad that education, the environment, travel, and corn dogs are now seen as a political liability, at least it provides us with this level of comedy.

Binders Full of Women

Following Mitt Romney's comment in the second presidential debate last week, the phrase took off on social media.  My sister sent me these two links.

Gawker and Tumblr

A funny example from Gawker:

The most interesting point on all of this is that what Romney said at the debate simply isn't true.  Of course, even before these facts emerged, his comments forced the question... why after that long in business, an active social life, and running the Salt Lake Olympics didn't Romney know of a great many women to tap for senior roles?

Wake the F&CK Up!

From The Huffington Post & Benjy Sarlin:

Some super PACs spend millions attacking President Obama on jobs. Some super PACs tie Mitt Romney to outsourcing. Then there’s the one that has Samuel Jackson screaming “Hell no, motherf***ers!” at elderly voters.

While television ad blitz is still the go-to move for outside groups this election, one small super PAC has been generating impressive amounts of attention by focusing almost exclusively on online videos. 

You have probably seen at least one of the clips from the Jewish Council for Education and Research. Their most recent video features the aforementioned Jackson urging a family of 2008 Obama supporters via storybook rhyme to “wake the f*** up!” and volunteer again. It’s garnered 1.5 million views on YouTube and likely much more via an embedded Yahoo version where it first debuted. 

Written by the bestselling author of Go the F*** to Sleep, Adam Mansbach, and directed by Boaz Yakin (Remember The Titans), the short film contains all the hallmarks of JCER’s viral formula. Well known actor + obscenity + progressive message = Internet hit.

 Warning: Wonderful adult language.  LOL

Han’s Legal Justification For Shooting Greedo First

A friend sent me this from Legal Geeks.  It is the legal argument for Han not being criminally liable for shooting Greedo in Star Wars.  Awesome.  It also again demonstrates why George Lucas is a tool.

That said, he is good for something (e.g. George Lucas In Love).  And that's it.




I am so ready for someone to write an agricultural space trajedy.
