Great Joke!

You have to love the person who created this. Some say Hillary. Some say Obama. Others say a warped blogger with talent. Like me! Except the last part.

actually, this wouldn't play, but if it's what i think it is, you may relish that this rip off of apple's ad playing on 1984 and all the big brother images put into a slanderous, fake ad against the woman you hate is funny...but i predict by next summer and fall, these "viral ads" will be a bigger problem than the 527's were in 2004

You only need a few seconds to know where this is going, though it is humorous enough.

I offered no conclusive proof. I thougth it was funny, and listed it under "great joke". I merely stated what I had heard of it so far. (Parkridge - where she was raised, 47 - the year she was born, parkridge47 was the original).

So why are you not laughing?

And viral ads? We had them 7 years ago. Hello! Dragging death anyone?

i didn't say they never existed before, but i just see an explosion of them in the next cycle.

and i thought the ad was clever,,,tho "funny" isn't the word i'd use to describe it's appeal....now, josh jennings for congress...that's a funny political ad series!

Once a technology goes mainstream, explosion is the next step in the evolution.

Nah, most of us geeks have a pretty twisted sense of humor.

Speaking of geekiness, while at Wally World yesterday I just couldn't pass up a geeky toy at the check out display. A ball point pen with a blue LED flashlight and red laser built in. Totally useless really, but for three bucks what the heck.

While in the waiting room at the doctor's office this morning I was covertly moving the red laser dot around the room, on the walls and ceiling and enjoying watching the other patients trying to figure out where it was coming from. One little old man sitting across from me knew it was me and was chuckling to himself. I guess he has a warped sense of humor too.

It's pretty good.  They just needed the clip of her saying we must take away tax cuts for the "greater good".

Dont let appearances fool you. He is probably a geek in disguise.

it's funny how fox and nbc reported the story very differently. fox only mentioned that he resigned, NBC showed both sides...

nbc...Blue State Digital said in a statement that de Vellis had been “terminated” for violating a company policy against “outside political work or commentary on behalf of our clients or otherwise.” De Vellis contradicted that in his Web posting, insisting that he had resigned voluntarily.


fox...De Vellis said he resigned from the firm on Wednesday after he learned that he was about to be unmasked by liberal pundit Arianna Huffington on her Web site,
also, fox contends that he posted his admission before the post had outed him. not so, according to nbc...

nbc...The operative was first identified by the political blog Huffington Post as Philip de Vellis, a strategist with Blue State Digital. After NBC News confirmed de Vellis’ identity, he publicly admitted his involvement on the same blog.

interesting how fox doesn't want any mention that he may have been fired and outed vs. admitting and quitting. the fox story shows 1 side. the nbc one is definitely more "fair and balanced" showing both sides.

Unless NBC is not true. But I fail to see how the story was not fair and balanced. The story is - he was loosely connected with Obama (very loosely), he no longer is. He did it on a lark. He was outed.

Whether he was fired or going to be fired is irrelevant. He was or probably would have been if he did not resign (if indeed he did).

What I find surprising is that there is enough brains at the Puffington Host to have figured it out. Now THAT is the real story.
