The Dumbest Thing I've Seen in Weeks.

The sheer stupidity and sad attempts at scare tactics really make this video painful to watch.


1) "In a land where Obama is reelected..." there will apparently be children missing a Chuck and the streets will be a ghost town.
2) "Small businesses are struggling..." Yep, that would happen no matter who was in office at this point. Decades of an economy on the verge of breakdown will do that, you know.
3) "Families are worried about their jobs..." Yep, because Obama is the cause of the shitty economic state, high unemployment rates, and factory/corporate outsourcing.
4) "The wait to see a doctor is ever-increasing..." Well when such a mass amount of people can't afford health insurance and the population is both aging and growing at the same time, that's going to happen. Obama didn't cause our grandparents to fuck so much that they had too many kids. And I couldn't afford insurance before he even ran for office...
5) "Gas prices will be through the roof..." Did ya'll not notice the climb started (this time) during the Bush Administration?
6) "Freedom of religion under attack..." How is promoting religious freedom for other groups attacking the freedom for Christians to practice? As a Catholic, I'm not threatened by Amad down the street going to mosque or Hershel going to synagogue. If a person is that shaken by other faiths, maybe they need to do some soul searching to see if their own faith is weak. This nation is not "a Christian nation"...our founding fathers and people of the American Revolution were from all walks. We had atheists, agnostics, Christians, Jews...it goes on and on. The idea of "In God We Trust" being on coins and such is NOT a defense for the idea of "the nation was founded on [blank] faith", because those coins were minted that way LONG after the country was founded.
7) "And every day, the residents of this town worry about a sworn American enemy having nuclear arms..." Yep...because if Iran chooses to attack the States, all the old, scared white folks in East Bumblefuck are the FIRST to go. Anyway, there's a lot of debate on whether or not that threat is even valid to the States. It's a bigger deal for Israel than it is for us...and we are not Israel. (Somebody should tell D.C. that at some point but that's another story.)
I really hope Rick Santorum doesn't get elected, because it would prove the point that Americans have gotten dumber as of late. Stereotypes! Based on fact?!
