The Daily Show on The GOP's New Advertising Campaign
By SilentPatriot Thursday May 15, 2008 7:40pm
After learning that the GOP borrowed their new campaign slogan from an anti-depressant medicine, Jon Stewart put together this effective new ad that should hit the airwaves soon.

"You are the guys that have been in charge! What do you mean 'change you deserve'? Oh, you were being sarcastic, I guess."

Exactly. Brilliant!
Jon Stewart rocks!
The best news comes from The Comedy Channel (ok, and DemocracyNow, Free Speech TV, and Olbermann - of which, only one is considered mainstream).
The saddest statement to our society.
Fuck you 4th Estate. Dead and buried.
If the GOP is doing such a smash-up job, why would anyone want change?
Anyone who thinks this election is going to be a comedy when it gets underway, and the cons let the dogs out of the pen is going to be in for a serious wake up call.
And McCain Tries to Blame Iraq on ‘Restless Dreg Syndrome’
I'm glad he did point out the painfully obvious fact that they're trying to polish a festering turd.
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!
L.A. Confidential @ 4:
ouch. You're right, but if you believe, like I do, that the markets are in a bear market rally, I wouldn't bet on the 'Pubs.
i would be hideous if it wasn't so damned cute....
The Republican party lost it's way when they decided Bush was chosen by God.
And they have called good American's traitors for questioning the poor leadership of Bush and the dangerous path he has taken this country.
Republicans lost their way when they turned on the American people, called them traitors, questioned their patriotism.
That makes Americans ANGRY as hell, like me!!!
Doughy. White. Happy.
Awesome! Some others that were kicked around, but rejected, after comparing them to Democratic slogans:
Democrats -Change you can believe in.
Republicans - Change. You just don't believe in it.
Democrats - Help is on the way.
Republicans - Socialists, Terrorists, Dems, oh my! Vote us back in or you will die!
Democrats - America: The Audacity of Hope.
Republicans - America: Abandon Hope, All Ye Who Enter.
Democrats - Justice for all.
Republicans - All for just us.
Whats going on Hackers for John McCain upset again?
And here I thought that being a Republican meant that a person was stupid. Now it turns out to be a mental illness. Sadly half the country should be driving around in rubber trucks.
How could it be that the upcoming election could be close? It baffles the mind and if McCain should win, Effexor will have to come out with a anti depressant for Democrats. I can see it now, "New Effexor Cyanide tablets".
Unfortunately the koolaid drinking continued.
when a Gooper "talks" it's tough. when a dem talks it's appeasement.
oh and shorter Bush/McCain: Obama throws like a girl.
Sorry,
Good, except the doughy white part. Attack, for a physical trait is always wrong, no matter who.
I know irony and sarcasm is always(!) lost on wingnuts, but this is really rediculously stupid. Or...some brand creative at the agency was a closeted Democrat and he won the bet :)
Don from Canada @ 13:
Well, they should be carted around in rubber trucks. They shouldn't be driving. They're doing the driving now, and that's the problem. :)
Two-party system. Duopoly. If one is genuinely conservative, there's nowhere else to go. (That's not an argument for voting Republican; it's an attempt to explain the mindset that could possibly make this election close.)
If Gone InSane wins, the Democrats' new slogan might need to be something along the lines of Viva la Revolucion!
Widespread @ 8:
So you've said time and time again...
...And yet, while screeching Barack Hussein Obama, the clowns in the GOP have managed to lose 3 contests (IL, LA, MS).. Care to explain this one away?
Come on, I know you have an excuse :)
Sorry, Widespread, I was talking to LA
Republican version of the Pledge of Allegiance:
I pledge allegiance to Jesus Christ and the Republican States of America. For that is the nation for whom he should stand. One people, excluding all others, 'cuz liberty's all for just us.
Karen @ 20:
I wish I has a license plate big enough...
Good one, Karen :)
L.A. Confidential @ 12:
Republicans can't win in MISSISSIPPI and you Johnny Insane will win the election???
LOL!
Wait...just change the name from Phillip-Morris to Altrea? Didnt the Democrats already do that? After the Dems couldnt stop 'liberal' from being a political curse word (at least since the 1988 election), havent they recently referred to their ideology as 'progressive'?
Just sayin'
David Hill @ 23:
Yep. (Though it's more like reviving the word 'progressive.')
It's one thing we've done right in the game of politics. Now, if only the party would actually stand for, and carry out, progressive policies. ;)
That is exactly what I was saying about the REPUBLICANS in my state using the term "vote for me if you ready for change," I thought what the hell are they talking about they are the problem and "WE NEED THE CHANGE" Idiots.
SweetAtheist @ 25:
Amazing, isn't it?
Wait.......the change we deserve.........
Maybe they're telling us they're all going to resign!
Doughy Pantload will be so proud. They are half-assing his half assedness.
BWAHAHA! That was great. Ironic that republicans want to use the catch phrase "change" so badly. Perhaps they should look up the definition.... because they're really endorsing democrats by using the word at all. Democrats should seize on this. "You want change? The party who's held control for 8 years is suddenly promising change? Wow! What a concept! Do I look like I was born yesterday?"
Republicans are really just Al Qaeda in nicer suits.
9:20 here in FL , Dan Abraham has story on Fox News reporting about someone adopting a monkey and Fox compares that to adopting child from Africa...commimg up.
Chimpy destroyed the GOP and most pundits agree it is in the toilet. "Re-branding" won't work, it's pathetic to see these fools even try.
I thought it said "Dopey. White. Happy".
What do you mean ‘change you deserve’?
Don't you see? It's perfectly clear they're just speaking in Yoda-talk. "Change you deserve..."
The second half is "...get it from us, you will not."
L.A. Confidential @ 4:
The barkin' dogs ain't gonna work this time around. The American people have been so royally screwed by the neocons, that all those wedge issues and fear mongering are going to dissipate like a fart in a tornado. The repukes are toast!!
This time the repuke noise machine will be seen for what it is; pathetic liars, trying to sell the American people another shit sandwich on behalf of the uber rich, who have fucked over everyone else in this country.
NoGWBpolicyleftinplace @ 34:
Please realize that half of America no matter how much they've been screwed by the Right will go into that booth and vote for them.
You don't understand how people think if you think McCain doesn't have a good chance of winning.
Republicans Doghy. White. Happy.
I want that slogan on a t-shirt!
NoGWBpolicyleftinplace @ 34:
I agree, Americans are waking up to right wing politics. 71% disapprove of Bush and will not vote in a McBush this fall. The brand is in the toilet and many former republicans have become Democrats. With 8 out of 10 Americans feeling the country is headed in the wrong direction, an Obama presidency is almost guaranteed.
Karen @ 11:
I guess they're sorry now they squeezed all the juice out of "Staying the Course".
craig @ 33:
Like this I did.
If your doghy,white,inbreed,and bitter.The G.O.P is right for you.
EWA @ 15:
Get a grip. I am doughy and white and I didn't take offense. If you had to describe the typical republican in 2 words, doughy white is perfect.
crazylikeafox @ 35:
You may be right, but I don't see McCain winning anywhere but perhaps a few backward, bigoted states. People are FINALLY seeing how the repukes have totally screwed them in every concievable way. Even the most clueless and politically disinterested are connecting the dots. And they do not like what has happened to them, or the country they once loved.
CARRIE RICHARDS @ 41:
Republicans: doughy white and happy guys who will cry if you pick on them.
dosido @ 14:
Republican X sucks like Bob Allen

craig @ 33:
Now that's silly isn't it, it's obvious they meant they would give each of us a haypenny for our troubles.
Now when will the republicks introduce their new logo with a certain asian symbol....
Where can I get a copy of that new ad?
I love good advertising.
In a real way, I'm glad that it was just a joke because it was very well done. And kind of cute, like a Toilet Paper ad with white kittens.
I don't see McCain winning anywhere but perhaps a few backward, bigoted states.
And even most those states seem to be finally getting their acts together.
I'll say it again: Canada still loves and appreciates America, and for all of the right reasons. We have high hopes that once the Democratic Candidate of your choice (or the super delegates) is finally chosen and given an almost certain Presidential victory, things will begin to improve in your own country and also worldwide.
Sorry, my last rambling was meant for:

Thanks for the kind words.
But we know you're just saying that 'cause you don't want a whole bunch of us fleeing across the border like we did in the 'Nam days if McBush wins in Nov to steal your health care and clog your fair cities with our gas-hogging SUVs...

My dear uncle Morris is a conscientious objector/schoolteacher from Indiana who needed to come to Canada to escape the draft in '70. Wonderful guy!
You know Rove is taking a lot of that anti depressant
