Political Advertising | Flame War Parody #35
One of the great things about having a vicious political blog is that I have the opportunity to put it’s destiny into the hands of the bitter Americans that read it.
That’s what we do here on Sundays. A topic is selected, and the power is in your hands to make it as stupid as possible. This week’s flame war parody is inspired by political advertising, which is becoming increasingly invasive on TV and radio in the run up to the 2008 election.
Should we ban all political advertising that doesn’t promote a platform of beating hippies?

Will there be enough hippies to go around for filming all that advertising or would we see the same ones over and over?
The advertising should set an example of beating a different hippie(s) each time to really be effective.

Censorship? No way. But as Obama is so fond of saying, “We need change”.
Instead of mud slinging how about mud wrestling?
I’d be in favor of proxy peroxide blonds in way tiny -and not overly secure- bikinis grappling for their candidate. I believe this would uncover the true body of their political stance while we’d get right to the bottom of the issues and be kept firmly abreast of anything that might pop-up.
Between ‘debates’ they could beat a hippie for no other reason than they can.

While I believe the idea does have merit, but, how will this help Michelle’s kids.
Hopey-changitude is whats all about now days.
No more of that hokey-pokey stuff.
I hope I don’t miss when I change hands.
Does the leg of lamb need to be thawed, or can it be frozen?

Could we have a game show that involves beating hippies with various implements of pain?

Excellent ideas by everyone. For the game show idea, I suggest “Will it draw blood?” Contestants place bets on whether the implement will draw blood. Some devices will be less obvious about their ability to draw blood, because they are not solid objects. For example, will beating a hippie with a football draw blood? What about a rubber hose? I do have to wonder how internal bleeding will be scored though.

David, one of the annoying things about political advertising is that we see the same political ads over and over, so I would suggest of course that the ad campaign consist of only new, live beatings, with no repeats. The exception being the few that are outstandingly entertaining can be run a few times. But mostly we’ll just let them run the course of going viral on YouTube.
Viral political advertising. Now that can’t be beat. (cough)

Les, I think you have more of a political debate strategy than a political advertising campaign, but I still love the idea. Would the mud wrestling be sponsored by V1@gara?

Skul, the only rules are the ones I have stated above.
It’s getting to be around that time of day that AlexL should be slithering out of his marsupial pouch and bringing his unconventional Australian perspective to the debate.

Skul said: “Does the leg of lamb need to be thawed, or can it be frozen.”
The beating of hippies must involve meat products as the instrument of bludgeoning. It is the obvious course of action after all.

But what about rubber hoses? They’re derived from petroleum. And leather items are made from murdered animals. So is anything fur covered.

I’m unsure of the sponsorship as of yet, but as long as there are mud cover half naked women involved whose going to notice who’s commercials are on anyway?
And you’re right, it would be more of a debate, but who the hell cares?

Political Advertising is a form of advertising that has as it main focus the marketing of ideas, beliefs, opinions, and attitudes. This includes political candidates, and political philosophies.
The most important result of political advertising is to shape the opinion of the people and gain their confidence. In political campaign advertising, the ultimate goal is to influence the vote.
Political advertising is different from commercial advertising because it is promoting a political philosophy, or person who is a political candidate, instead of marketing products and services. Also, there is always a set deadline for the political advertising to either be successful or a failure. Either way, there is a date by which the advertising campaign is permanently over. Political advertising also has large scale ramifications because the outcome can have wide reaching effects on the general population. For this reason, political advertising is often subjected to controversies and concerns surrounding the political campaign funding, the level of accuracy and truth in advertising, and the possibility of libelous claims, or slanderous claims made by political advertisements, and political candidates.
