What the hell? Don't the conservatives hate imagination and creativity?

The thing is, he never said a thing about his politics. Just flashes of him like it was some kind of glam shoot.

1. It fits. That's fantasy, too.
Although the writing leaves much to be desired.

4. I raised my voice too.
The theater was full of college aged kids. I can see why he's trying to rope them in. But, man. What a pathetic loser to try to ride on J.K.Rowling's coattails. I wonder what she would say if she knew?

6. Maybe we should find out where he's advertising?

He's showing his mug on the screen, obviously to become a familiar face to these kids. Kind of creepie, when you think about it. Like selling camel cigarette ads in comic books.

9. Frighteningly Reminiscent Of The Nazi Party
Edited on Sat Nov-20-10 09:14 AM by WVRICK13
when they first started taking power in Germany. Are there subliminal messages in the clips? THey have already stolen a symbol with the Don't Tread On Me flag. Soon it will be on armbands and the youth will be lining up for their cute little uniforms and guns.
