Here we go again, its election season!
Great, that means I can’t watch TV for 3 or 4 weeks without getting punch-drunk on idiocy.
The ads I see on TV appear to be produced with the expectation of the viewer’s political ignorance. ‘Santorum votes with George Bush 98% of the time’ one ad spouts. Why is Bush voting; and what is he voting for? He is the president, he doesn’t vote, he signs!
‘Casey was against the pay raise, but he still signed the checks’ intones another ad. Well, of course he did; it’s his job! The state treasurer has to pay for things the house buys!
Then there is Melissa Hart, touchingly wishing her opponent would stop the negative campaigning; all the while the RNC posts ads that slam the same opponent.
The fact that these ads seem to expect the viewer to be stupid is pitiful – The fact that they work is pathetic!!
