A new video from the founders of a celebrated advertising agency features children “of the future” singing about the aftermath of a Mitt Romney presidency: A world where sick people are required to “just die,” the atmosphere is “frying,” gays can be “fixed” and “oil fills the sea.”
The children, who stare blankly at the camera throughout the video, even take pains to explicitly mention that they blame “mom and dad” for all those horrors.
Here's Obama latest, nice huh?
While I find this in very poor taste, how is this Obama's fault again?
They're pushing his message. This is how these people think. They said the same kind of stuff during the Clinton campaigns, Republicans want children lose the lunchs, and seniors to have to eat dog food. Hyperbole all the way.

LMAO this is like the third time this was posted here, it has nothing to do with obama LOL
why do people try to say it does
Again, you'll have to show where Obama's involvment of this is. Do you have a quote from Obama telling these people to do or endorsing them to use children like this?
This is just another baseless "Blame Obama" thread when Obama has nothing to do with this video.
This....is incredibly tacky. Now they're using children to spread divisive, hyperbolic, hateful rhetoric? I don't care which side put it out, or who the creators support, anybody who uses children as a means of manipulating the voting bloc is disgusting to me. I sincerely hope that this kind of ad is condemned by both campaigns. It's tasteless.
Playing disingenuous is a last refuge of being called out about your sick mindset.
It does have something to do with Barack Obama, given he is running for reelection against Mitt Romney. :roll:

Obama is tied to this video by being Obama. Did you hear Obama denounce this video. NO. This video supports Obama's message. Further it's the same gutter campaign adds Obama has used repeatably. It represents who he is.

the superpac nonsense has almost ruined this election year. it's normally like the world cup for me. i can only imagine what it's like for those in swing states. for me, it's crossroads superpac tea party crap 24/7. i'm the most nonviolent person you'll ever meet, but after watching 50 tea party commercials while i'm trying to eat my dinner and catch up on the news, i admit to fantasizing about giving Karl Rove a swift kick in the ass.
Interesting you have not seen one of Obama's or his superpac adds trash adds. I guess those don't bother you.

Please, we use them all the time for political ads to spread divisive, hyperbolic rhetoric. People have awfully short and selective memories.
why would obama have to denounce a video that isnt about him, thats stupid lol
i hope you arent suggesting that gutter campaigns only come from obama LOL
Lol how partisan can you be, not only is this the same part of crap that the republicans do as well (appealing to FUD, which is really what this is), but if he were to publicly attack this advert, the conservatives would all attack him for not even being on the same page as his supporters. Both the republicans and democrats are crappy groups that will gladly let thier superPACs do the heavy lifting.
Fwiw, I have actually spent money on Pandora, just so I can avoid the nonstop political ads on my radio, since the only thing I listen to outside of Pandora is NPR and Cspan, I have escaped the ads (I don't have a tv).
Obama HIMSELF has NOTHING to do with this ad, which is the WHOLE point. Do you have proof otherwise that Obama endorses the video?
The only desperation I see is some on the right trying to blame Obama for the video.
really seems the message to me is VOTE, period lol
