Rick Perry’s official campaign video

The first third is directed like a slick indie horror film and the remainder like a sickeningly cheesy American action epic. Presenting the official Rick Perry Presidential campaign video.

    The only non white person I saw in that video was Presiden Obama…

    And the truly scary thing is that some people will lap this up.

    I thought that was a piss take, but it’s real. That is scary. Think I’ll go out the back and start digging the bunker now.

    You say “sickeningly cheesy American action epic”. I say remake of The Omen.

    Yep them uppity ni**ers.

    This will be campaigning strategy 101 for the mad Abbott.

    Notice the image with the text about crime rates up and some hyperbole, whereas American crime rates are the lowest they’ve ever been and falling. With the exception of certain types of assault. Gotta love them truthy bits - like chunky, but different.

    I’ve long thought all the US had left was a talent for making movies. This dickhead obviously thinks he’s in one. “The last best hope of earth”? Oh shit are we in it!

    So, would that be the Mabbot? Gog and Magog? Rabbot? *my first testament education kind of dropped out after the bit about massacring other tribes*

    I kind of wish this would stick.

    meh. obamas rhetoric wasn’t filled with any more substance. i was kinda hoping to see what would happen if an ultra right wing conservative gained the white house, i read recently romneys taking lead now. much of a muchness on both sides over there i think. kind of reminds me of here really. idiots, everywhere you turn.
