‘President Flexible’: Super PAC Mocks President With James Bond-Themed Ad

Earlier this week, a “hot mic” caught President Obama asking Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for “space,” adding that he would have more “flexibility” on missile defense after the election.
Naturally, a few folks were less than enthused with the president’s remarks.
“[Russia] is without question our number one geopolitical foe,” , “they fight for every cause for the world’s worst actors,” GOP front-runner Mitt Romney said in an interview with CNN. “The idea that he has more flexibility in mind for Russia is very, very troubling indeed.”
Perhaps hurt to find out that Russia and the U.S. are not, in fact, Best Friends Forever, President Medvedev lashed out at Romney, saying his comments smelled “like Hollywood.”
“We are in 2012 and not the mid-1970s,” the Russian president said.
Picking up on this ‘60/’70s Hollywood-Goes-to-the-Cold-War idea, the conservative super PAC American Crossroads released a James Bond-themed commercial that not only mocks the president’s odd request for “space,” but also takes a few jabs at the “über-macho” Russian Prime Minister Vladmir Putin.

Report Post »I think the ad was smart & to the point. Thankful I didn’t have to see & hear President Obama, after ordering a hamburger, “Do you have any Poupon”? And the new employee behind the counter that just took the order from the President of the United States is thinking: “Oh, shoe-horn(Brian Sacks original cuss-word) I forgot to fill the Poupon bottles along with the mustard & ketchup bottles! I’m going to get FIRED…Oh, shoe-horn…what will I do then? Seeing the concern on the young man’s face, President Obama leaned over & whispered in the young man’s ear, “Don’t worry about a thing young man, I am the Food Stamp President!

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 7:58pmOur President is a joke to the world.
Hey! How about another GOP DEBATE? Yes, but only if Mitt agrees to show up:
The Texas Republican Party is hoping to host a nationally televised Republican debate ahead of the state’s May 29 primary. Today, State GOP Chairman Steve Munisteri said Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul have committed.
Report Post »Mitt Romney is the only hold-out. State party officials say they’ve reached out to the Romeny camp, and he’s considering attending the debate. Munisteri said, “I am disappointed that Governor Romney has not yet committed to attending an official Republican Party of Texas event.“ He called it ”disrespectful to all Texas Republicans for a candidate not to attend.”
According to Munisteri, an un-named major television network has agreed to carry the debate, but only if all the candidates show up. Tentative dates and a location have been discussed, but no final decisions will be made until Romney makes a decision.

Posted on March 30, 2012 at 7:52pmAll they have to do is play Obama’s own words, “Energy prices will necessarily skyrocket, If I don’t get this done, this is a one term proposition. Police acted stupidly….” Put it on an endless loop, and for a cherry on top, play Bidens comments. They are writing their opponents ads.
