Tom Tancredo’s new television ad should have a little “inspired by true events” tag at the beginning. That might make terrorists at a shopping mall even scarier, Tom. Terrorists at a shopping mall? Didn’t that happen on 24?
Let’s break this ad down.
“There are consequences to open borders beyond the 20 million aliens who have come to take our jobs.”
When I think of aliens, I don’t think of Latin Americans; I think of xenomorph brood queens. You’ve got to be specific, Tom. And those jobs? The ones that should actually pay well? They’re being outsourced to India.
“Islamic terrorists now freely roam U.S. soil. Jihadists, who froth with hate, here to do as they have in London, Spain and Russia.”
“Froth” is a good word. It makes terrorists sounds like frothy cappuccino’s of hate! Yummy!
Tom, are you even trying to get literate people to vote for you? Is that why you haven’t responded to the Geek Survey? Is that why you’re avoiding geeks, Tom? Because we read? Because no matter how awesome the Jack Bauer Super Power Hour is, geeks know that that kind of satellite imagery is not possible with current technology?
Score
