Has anyone heard the "Obama's Third Term" ads on the radio?

The same guy who's been hyping those "the next big crisis" ads on some Sirius Radio programs has now started a new one...Obama apparently has plans in the works to subvert the Constitution and install himself as the first 3-term President since FDR. All you have to do is go to his web site and buy his books, and he'll tell you the shocking truth. Out of respect for sanity, I won't give you the link here.

Just when I thought the right wing nut-jobs couldn't get any wackier. I guess if you want to make money, though, just write some crazy shit about Obama and the Tea Baggers will open their wallets.

The Right Wing is getting pathetically desperate to stay relevant after an election that proved they are not needed or wanted.

It doesn't have to be true or even plausible to get the suckers to fork over their cash.

I really am missing the boat. I need to get to work.

Instead of trying to drum up freelance work, I should just do some crazy anti-Obama book or something. These loons will buy anything (as long as it doesn't involve TRUTH).

Maybe that does explain all the absolutely weird stuff that is going around right now. Most of it is just so far out there that it is hard to believe that anyone would even pay attention to it.

Hopefully the right wind is going down for the third time - but I doubt it. In this part of the country we always seem to have a far right wing. Too many uneducated people. And too many who go to religious colleges like Oral Roberts.

I thought that's why OFA is staying intact. The plan I heard is that they'll be so successful in getting 2/3 majorities in both houses that they'll change the constitution by voice acclimation and install Obama as President for Life. The third term is just the start.

Of course, if Reagan has actually secured a third term, they would have had to mummify him in order to get him through it...

Even their wackadoodle base has wearied of the Ben Gazzi Molehill getting trampled just south of Bullshit Mountain.

I heard this Third World style, 3rd Term Sales Pitch last night and LMAO.

If it's a radio ad, it's some Johnny Boombatz who wants what's in your wallet. He'll sell you invisibility pills, freeze-dried Jesus, hand-crank penis enlargers. He's got no fucking shame.

The sad thing is: He's guaranteed automatic sales from the deluded masses who listen to ReichWing Radio. The drama queens will open their wallets w-i-i-d-e when they hear "that ebbil Obama is up to sumpin ELSE. It's HUGH!1!!!!1111!!!1!1!1"


There's a sucker born every minute.

Glad to see that someone else already started a topic on it. This thing would be hilarious if there weren't so many stupid people out there who will believe it. I want to ask that guy what happened to the huge, country-altering financial crisis he predicted he would hit this summer.

Republicans jump from one conspiracy to the next. You would think that eventually they would stop and think, "These conspiracies that we cling to never ever pan out"

Make it sound urgent and scary and don't forget to mention the 2nd amendment, Socialism, Communism and abortion. You'll be living like Romney in no time.
