Lewis, Mr. President

I'd be OK if the president told a republican congress to go fuck themselves in those words..

[lyeman]

Every act of Congress looks good if you only read the first page or so. I don't even know what I'm signing.

A lot of people don't like democracy.  They like to say they do, and they get all patriotic and gooey over their own love of the word "democracy," but they really don't like the concept when it comes right down to it.  What they really want is to have their way all the time.  But getting your way all the time is not democracy.  It's more like a dictatorship.  Democracy is a whole different concept.

I haven't seen such top shelf porn grade acting and production values since Anal Whores 2.

And republicans play the same whorish games with 'voter fraud' Johan and you know it..

[Johan]

Oh I'm not arguing against the message. We're on the same page there. That video just looks like it was written directed and produced by someone who failed a high school level communications class. It was downright painful to watch.

Maybe I'm being a snob but I'm of the belief that when you produce video to deliver a message, you have to nail the acting and production quality. Because if you don't. people end up remembering how much the video sucked rather than the message you were trying to deliver.

[SGOS]

The video did appear to be overacted, but I thought that was intentional.  Otherwise you wouldn't hire Louis Black play the role.

I tend to agree..not well done. But the message is clear..

[Johan]

Six months from now, the only message I'll remember from this is that Lewis Black can nail porn quality forced acting if he puts his mind to it. I'll have to find this thread to actually remember which group he was supporting or what message he was trying to deliver.

That's too bad.

[Johan]

That's too bad.

That's human nature. You can pretend that people don't work that way all you like. You can look down your nose at people who do work that way to make yourself feel smuggly superior as you've done here, but it won't change reality.

[AllPurposeAtheist]

Louis Black could just as easily made it part of his standup routine and I'm sure it would go over much better, but that's a commercial gig and pissing off sponsors would lose him audience share on cable or wherever..

You really need to stop talking to yourself like that.
