Europe worshiping? Joel Send a noteboard - 28/04/2010 02:57:13 AM
And they that unlike most Europe worshiping liberals the average American will look at that and think election day not Guy Fawkes.

Again, looking back it seems a bit of a stretch to strongly associate the ad with the Gunpowder Plot, but there are superficial reasons to do so. The main reason I'm less inclined to see it that way is because I think it would be counterproductive and the RGA knows it, but being UNABLE to see a connection seems less about not worshipping Europe than lacking any awareness of things outside the US. We're not the whole world, much as reminders of that bothers a lot of Republicans.

And the Newest American Patriot is--GUY FAWKES?! Joel - 24/04/2010 09:29:23 PM 872 Views
I don't see any reference to Guy Fawkes. Like, none at all. beckstcw - 24/04/2010 10:18:14 PM 538 Views
The title does rather remind one of those "Remember, remember the fifth of November" lines... Legolas - 24/04/2010 10:30:31 PM 454 Views
Agree. Seems to me the November is all about the election date, what with the tick and all. Rebekah - 24/04/2010 10:40:30 PM 489 Views
Is expecting anyone who'd watch the ad to know the elections are in November expecting too much? Joel - 24/04/2010 10:46:27 PM 539 Views
That's a pretty big stretch. everynametaken - 25/04/2010 06:44:07 AM 522 Views
Probably coincidence of dates, the sinister tone and predisposition to cry foul is to blam Joel - 28/04/2010 02:46:02 AM 561 Views
Hmm... a four hundred year old event from another country, yes that had to be the reference Isaac - 25/04/2010 12:31:08 PM 557 Views
And the 5th is never actually mentioned. Just "Remember November". *NM* beckstcw - 26/04/2010 04:00:02 AM 235 Views
Yeah, looking back I'm forced to admit you're almost certainly right. Joel - 28/04/2010 02:47:39 AM 634 Views
Thanks, but weirdly my research on it now makes me think nov 5 would be a good day Isaac - 28/04/2010 02:50:13 AM 547 Views
NP, but I question that stat. Joel - 28/04/2010 03:17:12 AM 730 Views

Oilers, Broncos and Cowboys fan; I loathe both the Browns and the 'Niners. Joel - 28/04/2010 04:12:21 AM 647 Views
Um...is everyone forgetting Anonymous and the Ron Paulite attachment to V for Vendetta? Burr - 25/04/2010 04:52:20 PM 532 Views
True, but to (belatedly) be fair, I don't think that's REALLY the RGAs intent here. Joel - 28/04/2010 02:54:21 AM 624 Views
maybe they just like seeing liberals get worked up over silly crap random thoughts - 25/04/2010 08:21:14 PM 535 Views

Yes Europe worship random thoughts - 28/04/2010 06:03:36 PM 552 Views
Europe is doing some things better than us, and has for some time. Joel - 04/05/2010 06:02:00 PM 563 Views
