Very watchable attack ad on Obama. The production quality is excellent.

Really looking like Being President is becoming an interruption of his vacationing year, and golfing week.

His wife is the latter day version of Marie Antoinette.

Grandstanders, unfettered borrowing, delusional speeches, crazy responses to serious issues. The Kenyan is a fraud and a lightweight.

Great talker though. America has actually woken up to this Charlatan. Useless effete Muslim.

Outstanding.

Its interesting that on the back of Obama’s tanking popularity, Gillard has chosen to adopt precisely the same vaccuous and so-called “presidential” rhetoric, albeit with the disadvantage of lacking his oleaginous style. She didn’t learn much from what happened in NZ in ’08.

Very watchable? Most of it was unintelligible.

There are plenty of intelligent criticisms which can be made of President Obama. This did not contain any of them.

Meh! Wasn’t that good.

Even though he’s got issues, he’s still ten times better than that ignoramus, Bush.

And I’ll repeat here what I said about the video then:

What’s also impressive about such things is that it was done with some piece of software (probably not Flash, looks to good for that), plus singing tracks – all of it probably done on a single computer (Garageband+toon generator+iMovie on a Mac?). I know there’s a GOP group behind it, but the point is that they did not need Pixar to do this.

There’s going to be a lot more of this as the technology skills move forward – even my 13 year old is having a crack at doing this sort of stuff.

It really is part of the whole Army Of Davids thing – but in politics.

I still think it’s the last point that is the most important to take away from this video – and no I’m not referring to our esteemed host, as Rex W whimsically pointed out in the original post!!

Really? Actually I think Bush was better, and will be remembered as a good president. And never so quickly has a President’s popularity gone down as Obama’s. Bush was more popular for longer.

Sure, Bush was sometimes a bumbler, at least he said what he meant. Obama is a sophist – a lot of smooth words signifying nothing.

Entertaining – yes. Contributes to intelligent discussion of substantive issues – not so much.

Alphakiwi “Even though he’s got issues, he’s still ten times better than that ignoramus, Bush.”

That statement itself shows how bloody stupid you are and your ignorance of his politics, his legacy and what he stood for. If you really believe that statement, I challenge you to list just ten things that Obama is “better” at than President Bush.

This is good reading, to start:

Every president after Bush is going to be dissed for years.

There’s never going to be a good one cause America is never going to recover for another generation if at all.

Actually I think Bush was better, and will be remembered as a good president.

What were the highlights of his presidency?
– 9/11
– Afghanistan war, still going
– Iraq war, sort of ended but far from resolved
– Katrina
– tax cuts, increased spending, spiralling deficit
– financial crash

Obama started with a bunch of messes, and is not halfway yet through his first term, so far too soon to judge his tenure.

Bush deserves his dissing. Obama’s dissing is mostly premature (if you ignore those that would diss him no matter what he did).
