“Green Police” Audi commercial poking fun at green movement?…or not.

If you watched the Super Bowl, you probably watched the comercials. It’s the one day of the year where viewers actually make a point to stick around for the commercial break- for entertainment of course.

This year there was one commercial that might have made a bigger political statement then some people might think- mainly because of its humorous tone. It was a commercial for the German car company Audi. Throughout the ad, the “Green Police”, dressed in official police-like gear, step in and catch people in the act of everything “un-green”.

The ad opens with a man at a grocery store checkout counter- he makes the dreadful choice when asked “paper or plastic?”- he picks plastic! Now, I remember when choosing paper bags made you a “tree killer”, but that’s another story. After choosing the evil plastic bag, the “Green Police” officer pushes the offender down on the counter and says, “You picked the wrong day to mess with the eco-system plastic boy”. I need to remember that line next time I am behind someone at my local market.

The comercial then proceeds to break into a power-rock theme song, played by the band Cheap Trick, with the words “The Green Police…” (I’ll have to get the words and post them later). The Green Police proceed to go through people’s trash, “busting” them with items that should have been recycle. Another man is pulled from his home and arrested for “possession of incandescent bulbs” while a couple teens have their water bottles emptied as the Green Police officer says, “What do you think about plastic bottles now?” (takes me back to getting busted with beer in my high school days).

Another scene shows some people enjoying their jacuzzi before being yanked out by the Green Police for having the temperature up to high. The final scene is a backed up interstate- cars being checked by the Green Police, driving their Segways and electric cars up . As the camera shot backs up, we see that the backup is caused by an “Eco Check”. And then the punchline- the new Audi car gets a pass and drives right through. There is one last scene with a Green Police officer stopping an actual police officer for drinking coffee out of a styrofoam cup.

I thought the commercial was hilarious- only because it gives a vision into the future if people like Van Jones and Al Gore have their way. The ad is so riciculous, but only because it is based on reality- that is, based on actual motives of the progressive green movement. Cap and Trade is a perfect example of this, and only the beginning. While there are those on the left who were laughing at this ad, this commercial was probably like “green movement” porn to the Van Jones crowd. Seeing a wealthy white guy arrested, no, brought to justice over his use of incandescent light bulbs gave many thrills up many legs.

So was this ad poking fun at the green movement’s fascist-like attitude toward the public being more “eco-conscience”? Or was this ad poking fun at those of us who believe the green movement desires to police the public into being more green? It could go both ways. From the responses I have read in reference to this ad, it appears to get a laugh out of both sides- and that’s not a bad thing- we could all use a laugh right about now. Audi hit a home run with this advertisement from the standpoint of attracting viewers from all angles. Humor always sells.

Now let’s see where this ad campaign goes politically- if it even does that at all. If their smart, they won’t- that’s may guess.

Watch the ad…

Actual History and Fact have no relevance to Progressives

Humans have defense mechanisms- some would call them instincts, others would simply refer to them as common sense. But whatever you call it, there is something in most all of us that throws up a red flag when our sense of security and safety is in danger.

A simple demonstration of this is the “hot stove top” (an electric coil range in this case). If I said, “Don’t touch the stove top, it will burn your hand”, most people would take the advice right from the get go.

Those who were either deaf or untrusting of my warning would check to see if the stove was turned to the “on” position. After seeing that the stove top was switched to the “on” position, that would be enough to keep their hands away. Some would look to the stove top coil, now a fiery orange color, and take the warning and stay away.

There would even be some people who would test the situation themselves and actually hold their hand inches above the glowing red stove top and feel the heat themselves- but still, they would not touch their hand to the hot stove. Stay with me here, I do have a point to make!

In the end, the truth of the situation (the stove is on!), kept people from burning themselves. Touching the hot stove surface doesn’t serve one’s well being.  But what would we say about someone who, after all the warning signs and proof, still touched the stove, resulting in burning their hands to smithereens?

If they touched it after witnessing the facts, we would probably say they were plain and simply stupid, or speaking like a “Harvard Progressive” (while sipping their Château Lafite)-  they would be deemed- “simpleminded, dull-witted, obtuse”, or my favorite- “doltish”. I would call them an idiot.

But, if they went back and touched that scalding hot stove top again, after burning several layers of skin of their hand, we could call them insane…yes, I said insane. There is a common phrase said among those in drug and alcohol recovery circles- “doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result is insanity”.

Welcome to the world of Progressives. Facts nor truth, have any relevance to their cause. In fact, actual history- opposed to a cleansed history- are like hemorrhoids to the Progressive movement- a real pain in the butt to their cause (I couldn’t resist).

Have you ever questioned why so-called “humanitarians” on the left have heroes such as Che Guevara, Chairman Mao, or Karl Marx? Most people’s intuition would tell them that these are not what we would categorize as decent “humanitarian” historic figures. But progressives throughout history, including some within our own government, openly defend and classify these dictators and murderers as their “go to” people. (A few examples HERE, and HERE

Take Che Guevara as an example. The left treat this guy like a combination of Mickey Mouse and Martin Luther King,Jr. College kids going to school on mom and dad’s bank account walk around campus “texting” on their i-Phones, listening to the latest Jay-Z mp3s, while they sport their latest t-shirts with the face of Che gracing the front.

Now I can excuse youthful ignorance. Many young people see their favorite rap star, rock star, or celebrity wearing clothing with “that Cuban guy” on the front. Why someone like Carlos Santana or Jay-Z would give props to a racist murderer is beyond me- but maybe they are actually ignorant (no surprise there). Most of these kids don’t even know who the real Che was- if they even know who he is to begin with.

But the longer people see celebrities where Che shirts (along with their kids) they begin to buy into the lie. Throw in a few glossy Hollywood-made “Che flicks” that leave out the dirty facts, and you have a nation of sheep sporting Che thongs, Che sunglasses, and drinking Che Beer…or better yet,  Kool-Aid.

If Barack Obama’s co-workers quote Mao, even citing him as a person to be looked up to, people begin to believe Mao might not be so bad after all. And that crazy bearded guy Marx- he’s like Santa Klaus…handing out wonderful Communist gifts to all who are good…as long as they’re not “undesirable” of course.

But let’s put aside ignorance- innocent or not. Once we learn the truth, once we see the facts in front of us, how do we react? How do progressives react? When the truth of these historic figures is exposed- most people with a loving soul accept that these are not good people. But that isn’t happening with the Progressives.

Progressives, when faced with these facts, will argue with everything but the facts. They will argue with the style in which the facts are presented. They will argue with the person delivering the facts. Progressives will point to this, then that, and then do a roundabout- but never address the facts. They cannot address the facts, because there is no way to defend the bloodshed and murder caused by their heroes. So it is easier to put the walls up- and exit- no debate! Sound familiar?

But I know that all progressives cannot believe the murder of millions of people is a good thing. Many of these people are simply not informed. They’ve been reading books that have conveniently left out major details of Stalin, Mao, and or Che’s history. They have no defense of Mao’s actual atrocities. They feel cornered when they realize Che Guevera is a racist bigot who murdered defenseless Cubans. How can they defend that? They can’t, so they misdirect the conversation on the messenger- demonize them. Pride won’t allow them to admit that these were some evil bastards. It can be a bitter pill to swallow.

But what about those people who are exposed to the truth. Even when faced with the victims of Che, Mao, or Stalin- these progressives still come back for more.

The left still hold up their hands in support for Che’s Revolution. The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) even paid a visit to Cuba and practically drooled over the Communist regime.

Did the CBC call out the Castros for imprisoning political prisoners? Did they ask to visit the black Cuban anti-communist named Antunez, who had been imprisoned for 17 years in the dungeons of Castro? Do they know that Antunez was imprisoned for 17 years because he quoted Martin Luther King, Jr. and the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights in the public square?

Antuzez’s sister tells us, “The racist mentality is so ingrained among Cuba’s agents of repression that when mixed race groups are stopped on the street, only the blacks are asked for their identification papers. The only thing I have to thank the Cuban revolution for,” she quoted her brother, “is for restoring the yoke of slavery that my ancestors lived under.”

So what did Congressman Bobby Rush (D-Ill) have to say after meeting with Dictator Raul Castro while Antunez was imprisoned on the same island?

Bobby Rush said, “Raul Castro was a very engaging, down-to-earth and kind man…someone who I would favor as a neighbor. It was almost like visiting an old friend.”

Coming from a former Black Panther, Bobby Rush is either incredibly ignorant, or is willing to accept that the “ends justify the means” when it comes to Marxist regimes. Did Bobby somehow miss the racist part of Cuba’s “hero”?

Che Guevera, himself, wrote in his book, The Motorcycle Diaries, “The blacks, those magnificent examples of the African race who have maintained their racial purity thanks to their lack of an affinity with bathing…The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving, which has pursued him as far as this corner of America and drives him to advance himself, even independently of his own individual aspirations.”

Hero of the left, Sal Alinsky, wrote that “the end justifies almost any means”. It appears that for Progressives, the millions dead as a result of Stalin and Mao, were justifiable- as long as their Marxist/Communist agenda was reached. For Progressives, the executions, racism, and bigotry of Che Guevera was justifiable- as long as his Marxist revolution was successful.

The facts and actual history are finally being unveiled to more people then ever. The question is, when knowledge of the truth is gained- will they accept it and deny evil, or accept it and justify it.

Humor: What would we do without Chris Mathews?

Chris Mathews in the “Obama Age”- what would we do without him?

There was his classic, “I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often.”

Apparently it doesn’t take much to get Mathews excited, or “thrilled”, in this case. But with quotes like that, who needs parody writers?

While this isn’t a quote, there is always the classic drooling moment. Now that’s what I call passion…or a human case of rabies?

We honor you, Chris Mathews. Thank you for your…mis-steps?

“State of Obama” Speech- the joke’s on who?

Barack Obama might have gotten away with the speech he delivered to the nation on Wednesday night had it been a year ago. But- the year is 2010- and most Americans can see the writing on the wall (and are able to decipher bullcrap from honesty. This is how I can picture Obama and his buds watching the replay later that night:

David Brock and Media Matters=Comic Book Character

I believe David Brock believes he is a comic book character and Media Matters is his “Hall of Justice”. Somewhere along the line he became obsessive compulsive in regards to Fox News. There is a very good chance that Brock actually believes the “Fox Machine” really is a machine- or a robot. Maybe we will see a comic book…hey, Barack Obama had his own comic book, right?

40% Tax: Obama exempts Big Labor, but not you…

In the movies, the bank robbers always take out the can of spray paint and paint over the security camera lenses so the crime-in-progress isn’t captured. In Washington, the Obama Administration are using the “can of spray paint” so the American people don’t witness a crime in progress. That is why C-SPAN cameras where barred from the Senate/House/White House negotiations pertaining to health care.

See, if Americans witnessed the pitiful show going on in D.C. with the final health care negotiations, it would probably be the final nail in the coffin containing the current administration- and liberalism in general. Barack Obama just screwed the American worker- oh, unless you are paying off the mob union bosses. You pay up to the unions, and they pay up to Obama and gang- its that simple- the perfect crime.

While C-SPAN was banned from negotiations, big labor fat cats had a place at the table. Who was representing us, the American people- the independent worker, the small businessman? Nobody.

AFL-CIO president Richard Trumpka was there. SEIU thugmaster and Mao groupie Andy Stern was there- but he doesn’t count- he’s a regular piece of furnature at the White House nowdays. And then there were the teacher and government representatives on hand to make sure they got their say in the case against the 40% tax on “Cadillac plans”.

The people invited to the table were all bribe payers- Obama supporters. They had their panties in a bunch over something that most of us common-sense thinking Americans have been pointing at. Unions marched, argued, and acted out a lot of “thuggery” in supporting “health-care reform”. It backfired on them.

Unions put pressure on companies to give their employees the best healthcare plans- Obama and Democrats called them the “Cadillac plans”. Rich people are not the only ones with these plans- millions of “working class” employees have these plans. The corporations were doing good by offering these plans to the workers- they were getting top notch health plans. But the Democrats couldn’t have that, so they decided to slap down a 40% tax on these plans.

Rightly so, the union bosses reacted with dissapointment and anger- and they got their way. But what about the rest of American workers who decide not to “pay off” the union bosses? They are not exempt from this tax.

Liberal pundits and politicians say “this is just politics”, or “everybody does it”. Instead of being more transparent, the Obama Administration has become more sneaky and sleazy. The retched smell of rotting b.s. is making its way around the country and Americans have had enough. It is time for a clean-up crew to clean up the crap that is waste deep.

The C-SPAN cameras may not have been at the table capturing the “crime-in-progress”, but we live in an age were information travels faster then the next morning newspaper, or the evening news for that matter. Truth always rises to the top- and we will hold our leaders accountable.
