1. God How Stupid Do They Think Americans Are?
I hope they aren't as stupid as these agents of Satan would believe -- I guess we'll find out in November!

2. Energy Company "We're Greedy Exploiters"

3. Those Kerr McGee Ads With The Lady "Environmentalist??"
"theres a whole world under there -- but America has Engergy needs!"

OMG -- how about biodeisl, grandma? Wind maybe? I HATE THAT ONE!

How about the BP "normal every day people ads"

"I like clean air, but I don't want to live without a car." Yeah like that's the choice? Those are sooooo baaad. They rate up there with the Visa travel miles card where that assanine couple go to HAWAII!

4. One ad is the most despicable to me
The creepiest one to me was George Bush saying that he can’t imagine being a parent on 9/11 and choosing which kid he would pick up first. Besides the creepy "Sophie’s Choice" sound to it…my reaction to him saying he waited 7 minutes so he wouldn’t scare the kids was always “what about the scared kids in NY!!! I ran home through the city that awful day and there were lots of children around (it was a nice day and when I passed Union Square there were lots of people out with kids who had to get home with no taxis, subways, busses. ect.). Nobody here in NYC got to take a 7-minute “Time Out” and it would have been nice if our President thought of all those children. What about all the children who had parents in the towers? I think everyone knows how critical 7 minutes were for his or her parents. Seven minutes could have meant life or death! I want to punch the screen when I see that ad!

5. The ad that I hate the most
is a Bush campaign ad in which Bush is talking about how he wants to ENCOURAGE people to own stuff (like houses and businesses). He never said he would HELP people in buying property, he just said that he would ENCOURAGE them own a property. How stupid! Yes, the only reason I don't own a house is because nobody encouraged me to do so, it has nothing to do with the fact that I can't afford to buy a house. Maybe if we encourage some of those homeless people to own a house they'll go out and buy one. Money is not an issue at all!

I'm almost expecting to see him do a commercial where he will encourage the poor, hungry people of this country to eat cake.
