Josh Marshall has been on top of a new Republican ad that is supposed to remind us how The Terrorists will come git us if we elect John Kerry.
The ad is called "Wolves," and it is currently found on the opening screen of www.GeorgeWBush.com. It's set in a mysterious forest, that's supposed to remind us of The Blair Witch Project, I guess. The voice-over explains that John Kerry and the evil liberals tried to gut the national intelligence agencies. As we get toward the end, we catch glimpses of some sinister animal lurking in the brush. At the end, we see a pack of wolves in a small clearing that rise and move toward the camera, ready to pounce on a people weak and foolish enough to vote for Kerry.
Chck out the ad. It's really pretty dorky. Duncan Black thought the menacing wolves looked more like friendly puppies:
After seeing the full ad, instead of just the script and still photos, I'm laughing. That ad's going to become a camp classic.
ooooo....spoooooky puppies...
He even has his own mini-version of the ad.
Marshall alerts us to a new group that has quickly sprung up in response, http://www.WolfPacksforTruth.org/.
These outraged forest-dwellers are pretty steamed by the "puppies" ad. They say:
They told us we were shooting a Greenpeace commercial!
When the camera crew showed up, we wondered why they were all driving Hummers. Our agent assured us it was a Greenpeace commercial and they paid TWICE our hourly steak rat. Little did we know we were being tricked into this vicious campaign attack ad.
We are not Terrorists!
George W. Bush incorrectly labelled my wolfpack as a terrorist threat. We are NOT terrorists. We do not associate with terrorists (unless you count that pesky woverine) and FRANKLY, we don't even like terrorists!
Why did the Bush campaign take advantage of these poor creatures that way? Have they no shame? At long last, have they no shame?
One of the Wolf Packs for Truth members has this to add:
The time has come to set the record straight.
Alpha Frank is worried about getting cancer from air pollution that the Bush Administratio is now allowing power companies to release. His chances of getting a serious disease from pollution is getting more and more possible each year Bush is in office. Frank just wishes those humans would put their future before company profits.
And, coming soon to an attack ad near you ... Homicidal Deer Herds for Bush!
