Who We Are


We are not the stereotype of the typical Republican. We drink. We smoke. We cuss. We like The Simpsons and Family Guy, but we love South Park. We are Goldwater Girls Gone Wild and cynical punk rockers and drunk frat boys and bong-toting Burkeans and chain smoking blue collars and right-wing ravers and conservative clubbers and postmodern iconoclasts and Wall Streeters partying like it's 1982. We are metalheads and deadheads and parrotheads. Our heroes include Johnny Ramone, Jonah Goldberg, Greg Gutfeld, Hank Jr., P.J. O'Rourke, Alice Cooper, Gene Simmons, Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry, Ted Nugent, Neal Peart of Rush, Kid Rock, Andy Levy, Andrew Breitbart and Frank Kelly Rich. We love Ronald Reagan and PBR with straight shots, and Margaret Thatcher and fine cigars with Scotch. We often lean more libertarian than traditional conservative on certain issues, and would love to kick the ass of anyone wearing a Che t-shirt. We care a helluva lot more about a candidate's tax policy than past drug use. We are well informed on pop culture, the latest music, and Milton Friedman. We read National Review, Ayn Rand, and The Onion. Our religious beliefs range from devout to atheist, but we are more likely to be nursing a hangover on Sunday morning than in a church pew. And we are getting damn tired of people exclaiming, "YOU'RE a Republican?!?!"

Media... it bites

Hopefully some of what we'll hear of the aftermath of this debate will be comprised of Senator Obama's phrase repeated several times to his unwitting detriment, "I agree with you, Senator..." That would make him a more fitting running mate than his own Biden. He looked and sounded like a student trying to debate with his professor, which is exactly the situation when little inconsequential factors like political experience, military service, tenure and life experience are considered.

Let's see a new commercial that looks something like this:
OBAMA: "I agree with you, Senator."
MCCAIN: "I'm John McCain and I approve this message."
THE END

That's a positive message, right?

They already ran with it, only they cut the master about half way through, so they only use two bytes, not the seven that are there.

I must be some sort of visionary. X-o

Next they should use Obama's "57 States" gaffe for a commercial line. If it's already been run, I claim innocence! I haven't seen it! and my visionary status still stands. :)
