It is nice to see the mainstream coalesce around the TP.
Maybe the pubbies are finally getting their shit back together so as to present a united front come November.
Lately, rabidly anti-gay Congresswoman Michelle Bachman has been running TV ads featuring some unknown person called “Jim the election guy”. (Her opponent has countered with ads featuring real local residents, called “Jim, the real voter(s)”.)
How that person has been identified – he’s an actor living far outside Minnesota’s 6th District – Beau Peregino from San Francisco, CA. And he’s gay.
Word is that the ads will continue. She has spent a lot of money on filming a whole series of them besides the 2 or 3 that have been shown, and that would be wasted if she dumps the ads.
Well, if he represents libruls he’s probably stuff ballot boxes and little boys. If he’s a Real American he’s standing on the ramparts of the Alamo (there’s one in Minnesota, too) gunning down Islamic Communists.
He likes to tell us the real truth about “Taxin’ Tarryl” and how she’s going to tax our beer, corn dogs, crayons, you name it, she’ll tax it. And that’ll ruin Minnesota.
The first ad - basically “I’m Jim, here to tell you about Taxin’ Tarryl. But, wait, I’m just getting started” You haven’t SAID anything to start WITH, for fucks sake.
I am SO over the Bachmann ads. And Emmer? The fact that you have so many wonderful kids who smile while mowing the lawn just shows that you and your wife don’t grasp the concept of birth control.
It seems that Jim the Election Guy is no more. He has vanished from the last few Michelle Bachman ads. Apparently he hasn’t been working all that well, and her campaign has decided to throw away the other ads filmed with him in them.
So the real-jim-voters-living-in-the-district have a memorial site up for Fake Jim – see here.
ETA:If I’m gonna use up twenty minutes of my life reviewing te deails of the “False” and “Pants on Fire” ratings she’s received, I’ll be damned If I don’t contribute something to indicate that I’ve made that effort.
Even as I know that she is as crazy as a duck on acid, I still can’t quite grasp it. Where did she get that bit about Nancy Pelosi drinking a hundred grand worth of booze on a military jet? It must have gotten into her brain from some source, was it one of those viral e-mails? Some staffer trying to sabotage her? Really, WTF?
Umm, click on the rating headline. Judicial Watch (falsely) claimed Pelosi spent $100k for “in-flight expenses, including food and alcohol”. Put it through the fantasy world that World Nut Daily inhabits and it becomes a $100k bar tab.
Well, OK, thats good for a glimmer, Judicial Watch is mostly partisanity, but sometimes they have been known to give out the straight shit. I can understand how someone who’s stupid, crazy, and whacked out on vicodin and amphetamines could take their word without checking. Let it be noted that I have no actual proof of these allegations. Just sayin’, is all.
