Researching the intolerant right on the net has taken me to some interesting sites. One I recently came across is The Patriot Update. It bills itself as a free press for the conservative revolution. I am not exactly sure what that means, as its extreme views on public policy may be thought to sidle up towards hate groups like the Patriot Movement.
Still, it is a slick and relatively substantive production mixing conservative interpretations of news and public policy. It also features a set of well made political videos, including this one featuring an adorable kid critiquing Obama.
After the ad runs its course, youll see a series of fun bloopers the kid makes during filming. Viewing them together makes a nice juxtaposition between the child-like message of the spot, and the sophisticate manner in which policy groups of all stripes attempt to frame issues.
I would be laughing longer if I did not think someone, somewhere was taking this video seriously.
