Politics is ugly and apparently not to be taken seriously; by even the canidates.  To see what I’m talking about, follow this link and watch what is alledgedly a REAL campaign commercial.  Go ahead, I’ll wait.

Back?  Okay, I’ll dispense with the, “Wow, those special effects sucks the sack of a Bantha” type comments, because it just doesn’t need to be said. 

“…and I paid for this ad”
…and you got ripped off, pal.  Here’s a little piece of political advice from someone with charisma enough to lead throngs of people to do my bidding.  First, shoot your assistant out of an airlock immediately.  Second, if you don’t have an assistant, then hire one…and then shoot them out of an airlock immediately.  This shows the public that you mean business, and that you’re serious!  Next, with a face like that, it should be the very LAST thing the voters see, not the first.  Have someone kick you in the junk about three minutes before shooting the commercial.  This way, your anger and passion will really come across as genuine.  Because honestly, if you’re not passionate about the twig and berries, then I don’t want you near the kids….wait…if you are too passionate about them, I don’t want you near the children either.. Bah.  The method’s still gold, so run with it.  Trust me.

While I’m sure all your friends tell you that you look like the “40 Year Old Virgin“, and chances are, you might actually be one, this is no reason to announce it to the voters.  And a Jedi??  You want a position on the school board, and you chose to emulate the baby-stealers of the Galaxy??  What were you thinking???

Bah…  Politics is just damned ugly.

Here’s the rest of the story.
