We’re not even going to link to this website because its commercial is so damn stupid. Fox supposedly rejected this proposed SuperBowl commercial, but c’mon, who really believes this website sells enough crappola to pay for a SuperBowl commercial?

We just checked the website’s Alexa ranking. As measured by traffic, it doesn’t even rank in the top 8,000,000 websites around the world. And here in the United States, nearly 1,000,000 websites have more traffic. Based on that we feel confident in saying that JesusHatesObama.com doesn’t have enough money to buy a ticket to the SuperBowl, much less advertise on it.
We sum it up in two words: Publicity stunt.
We call bullshit. And we’re pretty sure Jesus really does hate bullshit.
The Washington State Department of Health developed this moronic ad campaign. They spent good money, money the citizens of Washington worked hard to earn, on a commercial called – are you ready? – Washyourhandsington!
Wow. Just wow. This is what passes for rational government spending in the Age of Obama.

General Motors is running a holiday commercial that pokes taxpayers in the eye by thanking them for helping the company get back up. The ad says, “Everyone falls down.” And that’s true, But, damn it, when most of us fall down, the government doesn’t rush in to give us $50 billion.

General Motors is running a holiday commercial that pokes taxpayers in the eye by thanking them for helping the company get back up.
The ad says, “Everyone falls down.” And that’s true, But, damn it, when most of us fall down, the government doesn’t rush in to give us $50 billion.
What GM should really be thanking us for is losing $9 billion on their initial public offering. And for all the stock that was given to the corrupt UAW. And the for $45 billion in unique tax credits they were awarded. And for the way the original stockholders and bondholders were screwed so that the President’s allies would profit. And for the way they were allowed to claim they had repaid the loan when they really hadn’t.
In reality, the commercial shouldn’t say, “We all fall down.” It should say, “We’ve fallen and we can’t get up without screwing the taxpayers.”
Who thought this was a good idea? Joe Sestak’s new commercial may qualify as not only the most tasteless campaign commercial of the year, but the stupidest.

This Moveon.org ad is the most over-written, over-produced, over-acted, over-thought piece of crap of this election cycle.
Gawker.com called this “our new favorite dystopian political advertisement.” But since don’t know what the hell that means, we’ll just say it’s the most over-written, over-produced, over-acted, over-thought piece of crap of this election cycle.
Luckily, it was produced by the leftists at MoveOn.org, so we’re happy that they saw fit to waste the money.
In that sense, it’s perfect. It stimulates the economy while being completely ineffective.
Bravo, MoveOn.org, bravo.

The only way this commercial could be better is if the candidate’s name had been Mary Jane.

How do you know when the Democrats’ entire “Chamber of Commerce is doing something illegal” meme is blowing up in their faces?
When even the über liberal New York Times condemns the commercial that makes the claim:
A closer examination shows that there is little evidence that what the chamber does in collecting overseas dues is improper or even unusual, according to both liberal and conservative election-law lawyers and campaign finance documents.
In fact, the controversy over the Chamber of Commerce financing may say more about the Washington spin cycle — where an Internet blog posting can be quickly picked up by like-minded groups and become political fodder for the president himself — than it does about the vagaries of campaign finance.

Young Boozer has an undergraduate degree in economics from Stanford University and an MBA from The Wharton School of Business. Young Boozer has 34 years of private sector experience managing billions of dollars in investments. Most recently served as Deputy State Finance Director for Governor Bob Riley. Young Boozer.

Christine O’Donnell is fighting back with a very nice commercial that attempts to retake the high ground.
One of the oldest rules in politics says, “Never allow yourself to be defined by your opponent.”
Unfortunately, Delaware Republican Christine O’Donnell forgot that rule and allowed her opponent to spread the message that “She’s crazy. She’s a witch. She’s unstable.”
So now O’Donnell is fighting back with a very nice commercial that attempts to retake the high ground.
HotAir.com says, “…the goal is to humanize her as quickly and powerfully as possible. Not a syllable is breathed here about policy, party affiliation, or conservatism; it’s a straightforward “everyman versus the establishment” appeal which, thanks to O’Donnell’s poise and the direct, soft-spoken conversational appeal to the camera, ends up being quite arresting.
Nice delivery, too. Especially the last line.
We would like Christine O’Donnell to be our Senator. The Editor adds that he would also like to have her rub Crisco all over his body. The Administrator notes that he wants nothing to do with either the Crisco nor another restraining order on the Editor.

French newspaper Courrier International created an ad suggesting that we could have avoided 9/11 if we’d simply built the twin towers a bit shorter.
Every year, at least one advertiser somewhere in the world is guaranteed to exploit the 9/11 attacks with a tasteless ad.
French newspaper Courrier International gets the “honor” this year with an ad suggesting that we could have avoided 9/11 if we’d simply built the twin towers a bit shorter. The ad shows two jets flying over a substantially shorter World Trade Center along with the headline, “Learn to anticipate.”
MyFoxLA has the tasteless details:
The website Ads of the World reported that Saatchi & Saatchi France is the agency behind the ad.
The Montreal Gazette reported that the campaign is an attempt to imply that the newspaper’s coverage will help readers anticipate major events.
The 9/11 terror attack are only one of the events used in the promotion. The campaign also uses the 1963 assassination of John F. Kennedy and the 1969 moon landing.
Many who have posted comments about the ad on various websites are upset about its insensitivity.
“Stupid beyond belief. There will NEVER be a right time to reference 9/11 in advertising,” reads one comment on the website AdFreak.com. “Oooh, I know, perhaps the Saatchi creatives could do one on the deportation of gypsies from their country,” quipped another post on the site.
Considering that the campaign features three American news events, perhaps the campaign should feature a new headline:
France. Where you can anticipate that nothing of any significance will ever happen.

Dodge used a monkey in the to advertise its annual Tent Event. PETA complained, so Dodge re-cut the commercial to address the leftist lunatics’ concerns. And it was funnier than ever.
About two weeks ago, IHateTheMedia.com’s Administrator emailed a funny commercial over to IHTM’s Editor, who promptly ignored it. (For god’s sake, man, the guy sends me 50 emails a day. I can’t pay attention to all of them.)
Now, much to the Editor’s chagrin, he saw the same commercial over at The Big Feed and found out it really was hilarious.
That being said, the Editor would like to thank The Big Feed and apologize to the Administrator.
So enough with the thanks and the apologies. Here’s the story on the commercial: Dodge used a monkey in the to advertise its annual Tent Event. PETA complained, so Dodge re-cut the commercial to address the leftist lunatics’ concerns. Here’s the original version:

Joe Donnelly is a congressman from Indiana. He’s an incumbent Democrat, but you’d never know it from his new TV commercial.
Donnelly says he’s been to the border and knows “just how bad the situation on the border is.” And he’s just Joe getting warmed up. He goes on to say that he wants to deport illegal aliens who commit felonies. And that he wants to deep six amnesty “because no one should ever be rewarded for breaking the law.”
Then he delivers the coup de grâce. He reveals that those positions aren’t “what the Washington crowd wants”, while displaying a photo of President Obama and Nancy Pelosi. You know, a couple of those darn Democrats.
The only thing missing from this commercial is a whispered voiceover right at the end that says, “Joe Donnelly is a Democrat, but he won’t tell anyone if you won’t.”

J.D. Hayworth, McCain’s opponent in the Arizona Republican primary, took a snippet from Worth Fighting For and turned it into a TV commercial that John McCain must hate even more than he hates the North Vietnamese.
In Worth Fighting For, McCain admits that he was less than honest during the 2000 South Carolina primary. When presented with a choice between telling the truth and winning the election, McCain says, “I chose lying.” And Hayworth argues that McCain is now doing again.

The town is making every sarcastic, insulting remark about your outfit from our offices to the restaurants. You’re a laughing joke!1. No one “warmly” welcomes someone they despise.
2. Those who “hate” the media, would not contribute to it by paying for a full-page ad.
3. Why would you care about a so-called carbon footprint, when you obviously don’t believe there is such a thing as climate change?
4. Al Gore did not build this house. Why have you not attacked the person who designed it and built on grounds that use to be open space and supported views and wildlife? Why are you not angry with the people that owned it before Mr. Gore?
5. I live alone and have 4 TV’s, however, never is there more than one on at a time! You can have 17 fireplaces, but usually only one is on at a time, not six! That house has gas fireplaces – it will not be burning any forests. (Sorry you don’t have even one.)
6. Why have you not attacked Ivan Reitman, Stuart Whitman, Dennis Miller, Carole Burnett, Steve Martin, Oprah, John Cleese and Rob Rowe, Eric Schmidt of Google??????? I could go on and on.
7. Over 80% of houses with ocean views in Montecito have over an acre, a swimming pool and spa and multiple fireplaces, bedrooms and baths. Duh! You’ve obviously never stepped your carbon smutty foot in Montecito!
8. I’m sorry your hatred and envy of what you think you know, but don’t, is burning such a hot hole in your heart. I guess those who have nothing, and no power, will always blame others and resent their success.
P.S. You’ll have no money in the Bank of Karma at the end of your life either.
