I question your comprehension anyway. It's not an ad, which I clearly stated. It's an address to the House of Representatives which was delivered on Tuesday. And you attempt to further discredit this vid (which you obviously haven't watched anyway) because it's on YouTube? I guess you prefer mainstream media as they can tell you your opinion rather than going through the taxing excerise of common sense and logic. But rest assured, this clip was initially televised on C-SPAN, so you shouldn't be too threatened by it.
If you're so angered and think it's too early to discuss the election then why post in the thread? You're only propagating something that you wish to go away.
Well, since you are the self appointed mod and apparent political strategist, how would you suggest I go about it? Meagerly speak when spoken to, and beg for forgiveness when I do?
You're right, I am angry. I'm angry that the media has taken it upon itself to decide that there are only about 6 candidates running for the presidency. And it just so happens that it is those who have common interests and million dollar backing from corporations and special interest groups. I'm angry that the one clip I've seen televised more than any other since the 2nd GOP debate was when Huckabee made a joke about John Edwards haircut! I've heard them say that Romney "looks the most Presidential". What the hell does that mean, or have to do with anything? It's irresponsible journalism.
I believe that our country is teetering dangerously close to a serious downward spiral. It is your prerogative to agree or disagree. It's my prerogative to express my opinion. If, in your mind, it's too early to discuss the election then don't enter any threads that might discuss it. However, I do find it odd that you'd make such brash statements considering that you've posted a couple of politically themed threads as of late...

These are the statements I refer to. This doesn't win you any converts.
You won't get any argument from me on the media or how they are trying to shape this election.
I share your concern about our country. I think we're losing freedoms quietly and it seems sometimes that nobody notices. Discussion is good. Political discussion can be fun but let's not wrapped around the axle because movement to embrace your candidate seems slow. As for the oddity of my brash statements compared to my posts, you'll just have to reconcile that with yourself. My posts have relevance because they relate to current events and are topics of frequent news reports.
