Ah, Politics...
THIS week's campaign meme was "kids toys." Like this:
There's a brief explanation here (in case you live under a rock), which focuses on perhaps the ONE group of people who find this shit amusing. Or, in this case, profitable.
It's comedy gold, alright. Just viewed a montage of ads on C-Spans morning talk call-in show already being run by Santorum, Gingrich and Paul that are simply devastating! What a club that staffer handed the opposition to hit Mittens over the head with! Hell, now the Obama crowd doesn't even have to spend any money on ads--all they'll have to do is re-reun the GOP attack ads--they are THAT devastating!
But, as the cartoon, above, shows, this is a multi-purpose "meme." (gotta use the right "progressive" "deconstructionist," "post-modern" jargon to prove I'm academically "hip," Buck ) The political cartoonists should have a field day..
PS: Talk about "recovery time!" The early am start yesterday after my bout with Monsieur Barbancourt the day before meant I was a DEAD MAN by 6pm! My wife just shook her head. "I assume not to bother to wake you for supper" was her only comment as I slipped into a dead-sleep coma. Oh, that, and she mumbled something about being sure to remember to keep paying the premiums on the life ins, lol

Not just these etch-a-sketch ads, either. All primary contests are vicious but this year's seems more so, for some reason.
In re: Monsieur B. You're better today, I assume? ;-)
