AMERICAblog: Possibly the lamest ad ever

  • KarenMrsLloydRichards · 1 year ago
    Delivery a "bit gay"? Sugar pie, flames were positively shooting out of my computer screen!
  • tlsintx · 1 year ago
    cringeworthy...in so many ways.
  • Bobby · 1 year ago
    Joe Lieberman has had his nose wedged up John McCain's butt for years! LOL
  • Butch1 · 1 year ago
    Yea, but they're covered completely by insurance. ;-) You have to hand it to those in Congress who cover their own backsides.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    as opposed to jeffylube gannon... who probably has shitty insurance, but gets to plow congressional ass from time to time I'm sure.
  • Butch1 · 1 year ago
    ;-) I wish the former Press Secretary McClellan had been asked questions under oath about "jeffy, why he was allowed some many "over-night passes" and with whom. " Perhaps, we would know who "deep throat" or what ever orifice is speaking today, really is in the White House. ;-)
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    funny... scotty's disappeared... so has kennyboy mehlman.

    where is miss mehlman these days??
  • Butch1 · 1 year ago
    Inquiring minds want to know . . . actually, I read somewhere he is involved with the RNC or something to do with that. He has definitely, stayed under the radar and no sources have spotted him at any of the familiar haunts.. ;-)
  • shrrrr · 1 year ago
    It's August. That means miss mehlman is doing the tea dance circuit on Fire Island.
  • Butch1 · 1 year ago
    They still let her come to it?
  • shrrrr · 1 year ago
    Oh yeah! As long as she's the party fluffer. (I'm sure you get the reference)
  • Butch1 · 1 year ago
    One would have to make sure he has had his shots. Even with mood lighting, and three or four scotches, I would have to think about women, and I'm gay! ;-)
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    strange how that's possible when they both seem to have their respective heads firmly wedged up their OWN asses most of the time.
  • Bobby · 1 year ago
    Okay, I just saw it.

    It's kind of cute. However, cute is not the same as effective or sensible.
  • Butch1 · 1 year ago
    Lame is an appropriate word for it.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    okay... maybe the actors are gay and they can't hide it...

    I'll give them the benefit of the doubt I guess.

    it IS, however, a really sucky ad... and if any fence-sitters have gaydar, theirs is probably set off by this ad.

    terrible... someone really should hire Jed.
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    someone really should hire Jed.

    I can already imagine Hannity's mock outrage at this.

    "See! Liberals want to force socialized medicine on us so they can shove whatever they want up their butts and have the American tazpayer cover the costs!!!"
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    I'm not touching that with a 10-foot pole...


    oops.
  • Zorba · 1 year ago
    You have a 10-foot pole? Ooooh. Sounds painful. ;-)
  • Bobby · 1 year ago
    Of all the things to get stuck in your ass, an action figure wouldn't be at the top of the list.

    Unless you're Larry Craig or Karl Rove.

    Haha. The jokes are endless! Thanks John!
  • sukabi1 · 1 year ago
    Possibly the best kind of ad to sabotage ANY movement on healthcare reform... are you so sure they are liberal and progressive... or are they part and parcel of the "status quo" folks? Because it looks to me like they are ringing the "homo alert" bell.
  • Indigo · 1 year ago
    Was that Jeff Gannon?
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    no... someone that refused to pay him.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    or did you mean 'was that the jeff gannon action figure?'

    :-)
  • Steve_in_CNJ · 1 year ago
    there's nothing political about this video. some perv just found an excuse to talk about putting things in your ass. self-indulgent embarrassing and ...lame.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    true... I usually just post on the blogs when I wanna talk about that kinda stuff.
  • lucky hussein · 1 year ago
    If 6th graders made it, it's ok. For anyone else, not so much.
  • benb · 1 year ago
    Pathetic. Are the guys from MTVs "Jackass" behind this?
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    I was thinking more SouthPark myself.
  • MalibuBarbie · 1 year ago
    Yes, John, it is offensive to boots AND action figures.
  • hueylong · 1 year ago
    It just sucks. I personally don't hear any steroetypically 'gay' inflection in his voice but I do agree it is along the 'gerbil' line. But more then anything it just sucks.
  • falloch · 1 year ago
    My toes are curling with embarrassment - but I don't know if it's the images, or the crap music. Okay, first it's the visuals, and THEN, the crap music. And I'm sorry but the Action Man up the arse is just tewtally pain-cringing. WHAT were they thinking of? Could the characters be Falwell/Coulter's secret love-children?

    I'm so with you on Clark. Here's what The Hill is saying about possible VP choices (via my little blog).

    Please let them be wrong!

    Possibly the lamest ad ever

    lame, yes. but not mclame lame.
    now there's a guy with an action figure stuck up his ass.
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    Yeah, pretty bad.

    I didn't see it as anti-gay, tho.

    I would have never even made the connection if you hadn't mentioned it.
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Good grief; what are we coming to be? Maybe the government should censor the internet. Or, maybe hire the admaker. He insulted gays, men, doctors, insurance companies, the government and maintenance men. And, all in one add. The author is a multitasking genius. Not to mention the fact that John A. may inadvertently be helping this trash go viral....
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    Soundboy Jeff is right.

    Tell these guys to hire JED right away!
  • cay · 1 year ago
    Pathetic.

    Here's how I'd do it:

    Doctor enters room: (knock knock) "Well, Mr. Average, what can I do for you today?"

    Mr. Average: "Doc, I've got this horrible pain in my back that gets worse every election season. What's going on back there?

    Doctor: "Let me have a look... hmmm... hmmm... hmmm... Oh yes, here's the problem!"

    (turns patient slightly--we see a knife in his back with a red handle)

    Doctor: "You've been the victim of a political attack! Looks like Republican work. By any chance are you middle class?"

    Mr. Average: "For the moment, yes..."

    Doctor: "Well, there's nothing I can do about this. Your insurance doesn't cover this kind of thing. Just try to take shallow breaths and sleep on your side. Here's my bill."

    Mr. Average (looking at bill): "Holy cow! Doc, I can't afford this!"

    Doctor: "Nothing I can do if your insurance won't pay. Oh, and now that you've made me talk to you again..." (grabs bill, updates it with pen)

    Mr. Average: "Doc! Isn't there anything you can do for me that won't run me into bankruptcy?"

    Doctor: "There's only one thing that can help you now, and I can't do it for you. It's called a 'rude awakening.' Hopefully you'll have one before it's too late. (Looks annoyed) See, you made me talk again." (updates bill)

    Cut to black. Fade up text:

    "Get the Republicans off the back of the middle class. Vote Democrat."
  • Steve_in_CNJ · 1 year ago
    excellent
  • mirth · 1 year ago
    "Lame" is being kind.
  • donotmakemecomedownthere · 1 year ago
    Stop the tape at 0:30. Is that action figure looking through a pair of binoculars or giving a bj? This video just gives fodder to the GOP media operatives. Exactly who paid for this shiite?
  • Indigo · 1 year ago
    I figured it out: It's just a pack of frat boys horsing around.
  • SkippyFlipjack · 1 year ago
    John, what makes you think that gay people have the market cornered on sticking things in their butt for fun?

    Forget hiring professionals; these guys should have gotten a couple of high school students to put together something better. Type in a YouTube URL followed by a bunch of random characters and you'll probably see a better-quality homemade video. Wow this was bad.
