Even MSNBC Hosts Think Obama‘s ’The Life Of Julia’ Is an Epic Fail

Less than a day after the Obama campaign launched an online campaign called “The Life of Julia” (which follows a fictitious woman through life and shows what happens if she’s subjected to GOP policies), just about everyone seems to agree that the idea is a bad one. Of course Romney and the RNC jumped on the story.
Romney’s campaign released a statement:
“The fact that President Obama’s campaign has to create fake people to distract from how his abysmal policies have failed real people is sad and extremely pathetic.”
The RNC’s coverage of the clever and entertaining Twitter postings that mock the campaign is also worth a visit.
Even the “Morning Joe” crew on MSNBC had a hard time defending the ad. Joe Scarborough sarcastically wondered “Who’s brushing her teeth?” after jokingly calling co-host Mika Brzezinski a “Marxist.”
Watch as Willie Geist, Donny Deutsch, and even Brzezinski join Joe in slamming the faceless Julia campaign (the idea was so whacky that Mika eve wondered which side benefited more from it):
(Now go look at our follow-up story: the “Life of Julia” site has a flag gaffe — can you spot it? See here.)

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 3:43pmIt’s not a epic failure IT is a very revealing look into the gaint socialist government that Obama invisions for America. It‘s also a revealing look into the sexism that Obama believes women can’t make it without a government propping them up.

Posted on May 6, 2012 at 10:01amSpelling, grammar, who cares anymore? It’s just like in the public schools, if you dare to point out errors you‘re diminishing some kid’s self image. Apparently many adults here have fragile egos as well and bristle when many near-illiterate posts are challenged for sloppy spelling and grammatical excursions into babble.
Clear thinking is in doubt when clear expression of those thoughts is absent. Hint: Spell Check doesn’t fix everything. I could sight, site, cite many examples if necessary.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 1:05pmNotice that they had to start Julia‘s life as a toddler because under Obama’s ideal society, there would have been an excellent chance that she would have been aborted before being born, especially being a female. That being said, many women have flourished in life very well without massive government hand outs and this is an insult to everyone who has.
