24. yeah, wtf is that?
The only thing I can figure is this - George Soros calls himself "the ultimate international Zionist conspiracy theory" and the Prime Minister of Malaysia recently made a speech about how the Zionists have undue influence in the world.

But what that has to do with these Young Republicans and their amateur propaganda - I have no idea.

6. That...
That, folks, is exactly why Democrats lose elections. That's how "Red-Staters" see the Democrat party.

25. It makes us habitual Democrats sound as if we're putting on airs
when we refer to the "Democratic Party." Isn't it peculiar that the Republicans got so desperate they started chewing on the other party's name? Poor, odd things.



Not from the "Democrat" Party.

28. They see liberals as conservatives masquerading and acting badly?
It was like a cheap version of "Blue Collar TV", which apparently, from cmoparing it to this video, is also full of "liberals".

...for an "I'm a Conservative" video and it would NOT be flattering to them. :-)

20. Very Illuminating and terrifying.
This was 22 years ago and these people were already burning books and albums.

I wonder how many repugs really understand what kind of agenda they are really pushing?

32. HOLY SHIT!!!!! (PUN INTENDED!!!!)
Just finished watching the 1st link, from Theocracy Watch.....Jesus H. Christ....well, they did it didn't they? I recall thinking the "Moral Majority" was a joke back then....well, whose laughing now? Not me....but the more aptly named "immoral minority" of Bu$h/Falwell and the other war & human rights criminals :(

I guess Zappa was right, when he said back in 87 on CNN "Crossfire"? was it....we are headed toward a Fascist Theocracy....I didn't believe it could happen, well, i was wrong, here it is....

sigh...

36. Now THAT is SCARY
Just watched the first link, and that attitude against us is RAMPANT now here in Texas. I remember in high school, back in the late seventies and early eighties, talking about this stuff in class, religion and government meshing together to form some weird Christian Theocracy. I never knew to take it seriously then, but how scary that its coming full swing now.


And now I must go to my very Christian in laws and have fun celebrating baby Jesus' birth. Amen, and someone pass the ammo,Im gonna need it.:puke:

10. Lame!
Edited on Wed Dec-22-04 12:14 AM by Vektor
Yeah, the message seems to be that liberals are all druggies, whores, and flamboyantly gay men in leather with their butt cheeks hanging out, or newscasters, (which is HUGE B.S., there is no "liberal media" to be found in this nation) with the odd professor thrown in, who all have no moral compass to speak of.

It's a pathetic attempt at disguising the fact that the most educated, high income areas of the country with the lowest teen pregnancy and divorce rates are the blue states.

And, that Bush is an alcoholic, and admitted cocaine user, who probably spent more than his share of time slumped over a toilet.

If you know what I mean.

27. Well, none of them were liberals, of course
See, they can't find good examples from regular media, so they had to have conservatives pose as their idea of what liberals are like, hence the message is really, "I'm a conservative posing as a liberal", which makes it even funnier, considering the guy wearing assless chaps in particular.... :)

22. Looks like they shot it with a cheap video camera.
The directing and writing are equally shoddy.

It's not really worth commenting on.

34. Was that produced by the DLC?
The message is obvious. Only social deviates are liberals.

Apparently, one must be willing to Kill for Jesus and Halliburton to get into heaven.

38. Bad acting, ripped off another commercial...
Poor production values, poorly shot, extremely poorly lit, bad music and not a single use of someone of another ethnic persuasion other then a room full of whities.

If they are going to try and slam the liberals or the Democrats, they should come up with a stronger argument then using stereo-typical, hackneyed, knee jerk images such as the ones used.

Beyond that, it was laughably inane.

This is the sign of an underdeveloped filmmaker.

Democrats are better filmmakers, period.
