‘U.S.S. Obamaboat’: Congressional Candidate’s Bizarre Ad Paints Obama as Captain of Slave Ship

Republican Congressional candidate Mark Oxner’s new ad will certainly have people talking. Set aboard a “ship of fools,” the ad almost seems as if it could have been directed by the macabre Tim Burton, offering an eccentric mix of just about everything — from a Cialis reference to a cameo by the famed “Anonymous” masked-figure, from a jab at Obamacare to a dig at the “99 percent.”
On this Alice in Wonderland-esque vessel, rafts full of enslaved children row-away as Captain Barack Obama of the “U.S.S. Obamaboat” recklessly steers the ship toward the edge of a waterfall, and, certain doom.
It comes as no surprise then, when Oxner closes the ad by asking voters to “turn this ship around” before it is too late.
Conservatives will likely cheer Oxner for his astute observations the creative way in which his ad paints the current president and his liberal policies as a subjugator of those who embrace the Constitution and freedom. Liberals, on the other hand, may mock the ad’s unconventionality and thus dismiss it as ridiculous. Either way, the spot delivers on what was likely its desired effect: To make people take notice!

Posted on January 27, 2012 at 10:49pmPointing out the truth makes you a racist. The new definition of a racist no longer is someone who discriminates based on race. Now it’s defined as “anyone who isn’t a socialist or communist-is a racist.” Pretty loose definition. If you don’t want the government taking 80% of your income in taxes, that now makes you a racist. Moreover, if you’re declared a “racist” by the government, they have the right to ship you off into a FEMA camp never to be heard from again. Just wait, the time is almost here.

Posted on January 27, 2012 at 9:39pmFunny? Is enslaving our children with massive debt funny? Is it funny to take their futures and drive down opportunities under the weight of massive spending we benefited from and that must pay back? How can we look our children and grandchildren in the eye and tell them they a higher standard of living the we enjoy today? We are destroying their lives by big government massive spending. We have enslaved future generations to massive debt so we could party on like it will never end. They will pay the price for our selfishness.

Posted on January 27, 2012 at 10:05pmHow true you are. Check out this report from the audit the Federal Reserve got in the summer of 2011. How come this was never reported on.

Posted on January 27, 2012 at 9:36pmJust looks like an astute observation of the current political climate. When the current taxpayers vote for egregious spending and give themselves benefits into perpetuity for which the next generation will have to pay, that is slavery. I’ve been saying it for a while now. Just glad to see that others see it as well.

It won’t be in the history books for long–if it hasn’t already been edited out. Obama’s crowd are busy rewriting those. Don’t you remember how Moo-Chelle Antoinette said “our history would have to change?” Well, the history, is it a-changing’, with kids being taught that the founding fathers of this country were no more than evil old white men who got rich by exploiting black people.
