The Democratic National Committee has decided to respond to former Alaska governor Sarah Palin's distortions on health care reform by creating the most annoying, shoddy fact-checking ad ever. Honestly, this thing could only be more irritating if it were a PowerPoint presentation. DNC Executive Director Jen O'Malley Dillon explains the rationale for the video here.
If Sarah Palin wants to spread lies on Facebook, we'll call her out in the very same place. And when thousands of folks share our note and expose her lies, it will be clear that those who lie about reform will be held accountable — no matter where they spread their misinformation. The more we push back with the truth, the more Sarah Palin and others like her will have to think twice before they promote lies, and the less they'll be able to derail progress.Actually, maybe I'm wrong: People with Facebook accounts are some of the most annoying people out there. This ad may be remarkably effective!Even if you don't have a Facebook account, you can still help us call out Sarah Palin. Visit Call 'em Out: Sarah Palin to watch our video detailing her lies and to call Palin's political organization and say, "stop lying."
I would have just hired a blintz to spy on her.
I could have made that for $5 million. Hire me.
John Edwards got a much better film making deal, I'd say.
I guess the "zing" that should follow most comments here is pretty much implicit, but, zing!
Excuse me, I need to grab a mop.
What is that freaking noise? Fire?
