Video: Using John McCain's Iraq Rhetoric Against Him

It was just a matter of time until the forces of the progressive internet turned its sights on the Republican nominee. And it's starting to happen with John McCain. Earlier today we brought you the "Yes We Can" parody that got viewed by almost 400,000 people in a single day. And now this:

One has a hard time seeing how John McCain is going to win the political war on the internet. He and the movement he now leads are ill-equipped to do so: they lag in creativity and know-how, and will probably lag in money. Unless they find effective conservative responses to all of the creative (that's an advertising industry term) that is bound to be put out by the left, the internet may be a progressive free-for-all of the next nine months.






Comments

Political Satire at it's best. Unfortunately, it is true. I respect John McCain, but his comment about staying in war for 100 years is irresponsible. With all the money that has been spent on this war and this election, we could have bought health care for every American citizen. After seeing this video I smiled and then I thought, it really isn't funny that such a great American feels this way. That is why I support Barack Obama. He has a clear vision on what needs to be done in this country and will restore us back to good National health. We all need to help him.

I thought it was good, but not edited as effectively as it could have been. They should have upped the volume on the 'fairly easy' comment, maybe even played it three rapid times in a row for each 'day at the beach' comment. Just a bit of critique, but glad that this work is being done to combat the likely kid glove treatment he'll get from croanies at Fox, elsewhere.
