    Phyllis, which two lines are you talking about? That whole freaking article destroyed me.

    Except this, which just made me giggle:

    "Science can do what natural selection never would have done," Mr. Busch said. "She never would have dated me."

    I wonder how many of them actually are racist. I'm looking at you, old white guy.

    What a dishonest crock of shit ad anyway. Jimmy Carter was talking about the lunatic tea party protesters who came out for the protests holding signs of Obama with a bone through his nose, and other classy displays of that ilk. Those tards would have been doing the same thing no matter what the issue; it had nothing to do with health care.

    You know, if they'd only substituted the word 'asshole' for for the word 'racist', the ad would be perfect.

    12%? So?
    I mean, over 50% of registered Republicans think Obama wasn't born in the U.S.
    12% ain't nuthin'. Pull your panties out of your asscrack and get over it!

    If you watch this video, then look at this ad you can only come to one conclusion: Earnest white people are hilarious!

    Waiting patiently for the health care reform is colorblind (aka: we are all a part of the healthy rainbow!) counter campaign.

    Who's going to remix this thing to remove all the editorializing, then loop it to 7 hours of actors rejected for KFC ads calling themselves racist?

    What's infuriating is that you know some of the people who agree with this ad's message probably nodded along and said, "Yeah, I think that's right," after the Glenn Beck "Obama hates white people" thing.

    This ad made me sick to my stomach. It's not the blatant ignorance and lies by the cretins who paid for this piece of shit; that's no surprise. It's the 'actors'; the people who appeared in this ad disgust me, especially whoever thought it was a good idea to involve their child. They might not be racists but they certainly are loathsome. I hope they made enough money to ensure that they and their families can afford healthcare for the rest of their lives, because karma can be a real bitch.

    You have to wonder if the people who worked on this ad--I mean the creatives, including the actors; the copywriters; the director and crew; the media buyers--feel even a little bit soiled when they take the money. Find out what they got paid, and you will find out what the going rate for a soul is these days.

    The other 88% of people just think they oppose healthcare reform because they're fucking assholes.
