I found this interesting. An 8 minute youtube in re the use of icons in our political landscape.

The republican stage reminds me of a cross leading to ‘The Tree of Life’; the other, an entrance to a casino.

The boys at pajamas TV need to spend some time trying to making their message a little more subtle. These "Obama is teh EBIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" videos are getting repetitive.

It is absolutely disgusting. All politicans do it equally well. I know the Obama logo is not being used as excessive as the video seems to imply.

However, this was my vote. It should have not been a chess match. All the debates are absolute BS as is the billions spent on marketing. Honest would be much better.
