Did I see this right? McCain tv ad using "eye of Sauron" tower against Obama?
admittedly, the commercial went by real quick as I was getting dressed this morning, but I could have sworn, an antiObama commercial has an "eye of Sauron" tower (lord of the rings reference) in the back as the camera "sweeps" backward over a crowd of adoring Obama worshippers.

someone tell me I didn't just see that.

Its so quick, its almost subliminal: has anyone seen this yet or has a link to it?


If I'm right, they're trying to paint Obama as the embodiment of evil or the antichrist.

9. I could see Rove being one of those D&D nerds...
Rove (in wizards robe in his parents basement): What should we call Obama next?

*Rolls 20 sided die, checks chart...*

Rove: Obama is an elitist!

14. ...Yeah, you're probably right. Rove probably liked playing RISK instead.
Assuming he could find anyone to play with.
