5. My personal favorite at the moment is the Heritage Foundation attack ad
Thu May 3, 2012, 10:30 AM
May 2012

against Obamacare that is running on the Hallmark channel (and about three other channels that appear to cater to Christians but that are right wing fronts).

The ad says Obama must go if we are to defend the Constitution -- from the program that the same Heritage Foundation developed at its stink tank.

Orwellian, really.
