Anybody see the new Conservative Party ads?
:rofl:

Maybe I'm just in a giddy mood, but I think they're hilarious. It's a shame the CBC is locked out, because they're just begging to be parodied by Rick Mercer.

If you haven't seen them on TV, check 'em out here: http://www.conservative.ca/index.php?section_copy_id=21257§ion_id=2049#

1. Yes and since we're not
in an election campaign, they're a waste of money. Especially in the summer when most people are on vacation, or outside and not watching TV.

Not to mention, that with all that's happened this summer...they're irrelevant. :7

2. There will be an election
There will be an election when the gomery inquiry has published its final report.

I got a call about a month ago from the conservative party asking me if they could count on my vote. I told them "NO".

3. That'll be next spring
and the world will change again before that.

4. I saw one. I was absolutely convinced I was watching a real conversation,
totally unscripted, completely extemporaneous, unplanned, unrehearsed...

Oh, I got the giggles all right.

5. But, gee Mr. Lahey, their skills are wasted. They're not doing their jobs
That's right, Randy, and it's our job is to ensure that they can.

6. Oh, for sure...
...the shaky hand-held camera a la "Traders" was the most convincing part--why, I felt like I was actually there!!! :sarcasm:

7. Well they could save some of that money...
...if they'd just stop being insane and listening to a little thing called reality, like for instance Gay Marriage is here now, so why not get over it? It's not as if most people don't care about it anymore, oh wait that's true most people don't. I suppose that's too much to ask though, so I can't really expect it.
