[DKos] Freepology Today: Obama with a Turbine on his Head
Diary of The Red Pen http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/5/26/18045/2089/549/523208

Let's not say that the Freepers were idle on this holiday weekend. In fact, freeper kdun came up with a sure-win campaign ad for McCain. Here it is:

Ad Idea for the general election, but don't really know how to pass on the idea.

Have a picture of Hussain Obama on one side wearing the turbine(the turbine picture) and to the right of that have a picture of John Mccain as a younger man in his uniform or after he was freed. Have the pictures side by side and on top either of the following

1. "What part of this don't you understand" or

2. "The choice is clear"

A great ad idea that goes right to the core of peoples fears. How do I get this idea to the powers to be or can you just do it for me?


Sure, kdun I can whip that right up with the GIMP.



There's Obama with a GE LM2500 gas turbine on his head juxtaposed with John McCain shaking hands with a political criminal. Man... I don't know why we even bother running a candidate against an image like that.

Really, with the geniuses at Free Republic on our case we can't get away with anything. Just the other day, Freeper, FFranco spilled the beans on our secret plot:

I believe there is a good chance Obama is a sleeper like the Manchurian Candidate put in place to take office as president and establish a communistic Islamic republic in America by using the expanded wartime powers the President possesses to overthrow the US Constitution and establish Sharia Law.

Obama can’t be the only secret Muslim agent, for one thing, they couldn’t know which ones would be successful enough in American society. There must be many, many more in business, government (federal, state and local), the military, in all walks of society. When the time is right, they will be ready to act to turn the world’s most powerful nation into an Islamic Republic. Once that’s done, the rest of the world will be forced to follow and the Caliphate will be reestablished.


It's an interesting world FFranco inhabits where America is both so weak that a single "sleeper agent" can take the presidency and overturn our entire system of government and reshape our culture without any opposition, yet we are strong enough to force the rest of the world to do what we say (we can't even get two impoverished countries to do what we say — sheesh). Then again, maybe Americans are ready for a communistic Islamic republic. Now... a gay communistic Islamic republic... that could start a fight.

UPDATE:

For those asking about wind turbines, they're just not as menacing. See for yourselves. Here's Obama with a wind farm on his head:

1. McCain's eyes look blank
and he bends as if a wind turbine has been stuck up his aft.

4. Sometimes I have moments when I think it might be a good idea
to require literacy tests of voters or maybe require them to answer just a few basic questions about each candidate.

BTW - is that Nixon's hand McCain is shaking? :rofl:

5. McCain is the "Manchurian" candidate if anyone is.......
and he won't be getting into office anytime prior to his death of natural causes due to old age.

38. Naw, a Manchurian candidate is one who's been hiding his true self all along.
McCain, God love him, is the candidate who flips sides to suit which way he thinks the wind is blowing.
What would that be, the Italian candidate?

...now that I'm done laughing hysterically--and I'm not kidding, I couldn't breath--someone
really needs to make this commercial.

SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!

Someone needs to make this commercial with Obama and a turbine on his head.

Someone could write some hilarious copy about turbines being evil, and wind turbines being
the product of radical environmentalists.

"Can America afford a President who will cause a wind tunnel during a cabinet meeting?"

This MUST be done!!!

34. You know, though, if we built a wind farm INSIDE every freeper's head,
we just might be able to completely eliminate this country's dependence on foreign oil.

We already know there's lots of air in there. My only concern is, does it ever circulate?

33. Well, Obama never made anti-American comments...
Edited on Mon May-26-08 10:15 PM by Fighting Irish
McCain did:

A guard burst into the cell and pulled McCain away from the window. For the next few days, he was on suicide watch.

McCain's will had finally wilted under the beatings. Unable to endure any more, he agreed to sign a confession.

McCain slowly wrote, "I am a black criminal and I have performed the deeds of an air pirate. I almost died and the Vietnamese people saved my life, thanks to the doctors."

He would never forgive himself.

"I had learned what we all learned over there," he would write later. "Every man has a breaking point. I had reached mine."

Which, in Kentucky and West Virginia, is pretty much dead on.

he's more of a vertical-axis turbine-wearer.
