Really. I tried to resist posting this clip. I tried hard.
I wrestled with my sense of “oh I can’t subject my international readers to this” and my sense of humor. My tendency to show serious things in a funny way. My senses of humor won. My fundamental need to post about hypocrisy won. Because this is as close to the truth as I have seen in a long time.
Happily found on Dailykos.com at this link.
Jesus approves this message, and SO DO I. Fantastic, Elyse!
My response went wonky on me Delajus! Glad you like the video.
I’m so glad you gave into the temptation, this is great. Hey, you’re name isn’t Adam or Eve is it? Sorry, I couldn’t resist either…lol
“Eve” is my maiden name. Or part of it, anyway. Of course there is more to it!
Hahahahaha..that is too funny.
It is pretty funny. I simply couldn’t resist. Of course, I’m going straight to hell for this one. Apparently I am part superball because I keep bouncing back out of hell!
Hi,
What a great video, and I just loved the ending as well. Great find.
Thanks, Mags. It comes from the DailyKos (as noted above) — a great political website.
Thanks, Mags! It is frighteningly true, too.
what time does the party start???? did i miss it already? damn….
No, the party will be going on for a while still. The grand finale will be in November, though. Make sure to be there.
i’ll be on the sideline throwing rotton tomatos at ALL the participants….
Please save some tomatoes for me to throw!
yeah…i can spell….sheesh…
Right ON!!!! Or maybe “Right” over and OUT!!! I know that would make ME happy!
Me too, Chris!
What a funny video! Real good one.
I wonder, how many people would prefer to join this party! 
I wish they hadn’t already, Arindam!
Where do I sign up?
At your stockbroker’s!
I just could resist.
What fun would that be, Frank!
Just saw curmudgeon McConnell … gag!
I think he looks like Charlie McCarthy — tEdgar Bergan (the ventrilloquist’s) dummy. Those lines around his mouth make it clear to me that someone is making him talk.
LMOF … very good!
Laughing your “O” off? Frank, do I want to know what that is?
I ran into the stupid stick today!
If I join the party, should I bring along a giant bag of candy and some diet soda for everyone?
Popcorn, too, please, Lisa.
Extra butter?
Extra slippery popcorn, please!
Oh my….I am so glad I had already swallowed (coffee that is).
How did I know you’d like this one?
I am totally transparent?
No. I’m sure I’m the only one who reads my blog who knows your political leanings. Everyone else is simply clueless, I’m sure.
That was perfect.
It is hilarious, isn’t it. There are some incredibly talented folks out there!
May you always give in, funny lady!
Alas, I am weak. I often do give in to temptation.
ROFL!
It is a well done video. Glad you liked it D&O!
Sweet production. It’s amazing there are so many examples of inconsistent thinking. Wouldn’t it be great if the people who think this way could think?
It would actually be nice if all people were more thoughtful. And perhaps looked in the mirror more often. Or better yet, just accepted my opinion as, um gospel. That would work, too.
LMFAO…..This was great. I needed the laugh. Funny, but true.
Glad you liked it, Lorre!
Typical liberal. Invoking truth to undermine perfectly good propoganda.
Hilarious video, Elyse. Glad you posted it!
I hang my head in shame. Yes, I am a liberal. To liberal even to consider myself “A Progressive.”
Thanks Guap. Glad you are as warped as I am!
Let’s just call it what it is… people looking out to their own interests and fear while honoring money and power. What happened to community, helping your neighbor and where is the love?
‘Community, helping your neighbor, and love’ have been outsourced overseas.
Can you send some of it back here, please?
I fear folks are much more Old and much less New Testament these days. That was my favorite part of the clip — the most spot on part.
This video just convinced me. I’m changing parties. My check is in the mail.
Does that mean you sold your soul to the GOP, Angie? NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
I did do that once. For about 10 years. And I worked for one for 5. Writing speeches, campaigning and everything (which was more about having a job).
Have you ever heard how you should probably not eat at a restaurant if it’s former employees don’t? Yeah, take note
Seriously joking (kiind of). Most my family eats at that restaurant. They don’t believe me about the rats.
Sorry for the typing errors. I have a naughty iPad.
I applied for jobs with several Republicans when I first came to DC. In fact, if the current Republicans were like the ones I knew when I first payed attention (the early 80s), I’d probably be a Republican. I mean, who doesn’t think a balanced budget is a good idea? Who doesn’t think that the gov’t should pay attention to what they’re spending. I like the old balance — where everyone met in the middle. There is no middle-ground any more.
Now the GOP is filled with crazies and I think a lot of folks are just starting to get an inkling of that.
I like the typos — I’m assuming they’re inserted by Angie-1982.
Having worked for a Republican, I know that the crazies are the exception and not the norm. In terms of elected officials at least. The problem is that those elected officials feel they need to appease those crazies and often come off as looking just as crazy in the process. I sat through many a private discussion with a GOP politician acknowledging the crazy part of their base. And I and my coworkers would often close out a fundraiser and say, I bet the Democrat crazies are a lot more fun
Yes, we are!
I was told that the only way to get rid of temptation was to give in to it. So glad you did.
Alas, I am weak …
Love it! I’m sharing it everywhere I know
Thanks Karen. Your Aussie perspective should help!
