The One: New McCain Ad

The one religion that gets no skepticism around here, the one religion that cannot be mocked, is Obama. Blinded by the lightness.

What happens to the people that mock him?

Oh, they get disagreed with by some people!!!! :eek:

However will free speech survive this?
 
Of course; if someone doesn't believe the Clintons killed Brown and Foster

Belief is one thing. Disputing the many facts that suggest Brown and Foster were murdered by providing countering facts of your own is another. You have plenty of former, but none of the latter. As anyone who visits my thread on that topic will find. :D

You keep telling yourself that and maybe one day you won't have to endlessly derail threads to prove it to yourself.
 
But then, people seldom find funny that which mocks their worldview. I suppose that's just another form of confirmation bias.
* deep sigh *

The problem is that you are not mocking my "worldview" any more than you would be mocking the "worldview" of Jews by joking about how mean they are.

Your stereotype of people who'd vote for Obama is like we're all brainwashed cult members flocking behind our Messiah, and amongst people who agree with you about that, jokes based on snide references to that theme are doubtless very funny.

But for anyone who actually supports Obama, and therefore knows what supporting Obama is like, it's as if you made a joke that turned on Obama being short and fat. I'd just be sitting there thinking: "Well, that was kinda lame, isn't he tall and skinny?" People who actually think he's short and fat might be rolling on the floor ... the rest of the audience remains baffled.

Maybe I have seen too many "end of times" docu's on Discovery, but it looked like the were setting up Obama as the antichrist..

Time Magazine goes with that angle:

As the ad begins, the words "It should be known that in 2008 the world shall be blessed. They will call him The One" flash across the screen. The Antichrist of the Left Behind books is a charismatic young political leader named Nicolae Carpathia who founds the One World religion (slogan: "We Are God") and promises to heal the world after a time of deep division. One of several Obama clips in the ad features the Senator saying, "A nation healed, a world repaired. We are the ones that we've been waiting for."

How dare Obama crib his lines from the Left Behind books!

;)

That's precisely the appeal of this ad. Religious fundie voters are not going to vote FOR McCain, so the idea is to get them to vote AGAINST Obama because he is the anti-christ.
