What's the sexism in that? Sorry excuse for a political ad... The title up there says it was "pulled due to sexism" It should have been pulled or never aired in the first place because is so immature... but I still don't see the sexism.

Tags changed from "campaign, massachusetts, big dig, mihos" to "campaign, boston, big dig, politics, ad" by gold star member joedirt.

Wow, I can't believe you guys. Do you really need the Daily Show to mock this clip for you to see the flipside of this? The advertisement is clearly aimed to get a gut reaction in the viewer, so you are convinced immediately. Such cheap political tactics are just subversive. And I wouldn't support a candidate who does that.

This administration is filled with pork barell politics, how can you explain this system http://www.videosift.com/story.php?id=10117&where=index being refused because Raytheon already had a goverment contract to develop a similar system several years down the line, but there is a system there now! There entire system needs to change. Armed forces should be able to independtly purchase their equipment.

Further more this addressing this issue is like dousing the fire of a skyscraper in flames. There is a big problem with the conflict America is in, there aren't enough forces, the forces that are there are spread thin doing police duty, the situation is chaotic. The conflict, the people who took you there are the problem.

This is a band aid fix for a gunshot wound, you cannot fight a war when you cut taxes but increase spending, promise to deliver results of military truimph while having less forces, that's just ridiculous. Such cheap political ads, got us into this siutation of living in a world full of he said she said gossip and bs while the real issues get lost in the noise. How else can you explain an administration winning on morality grounds concerned about homosexuality while it's involved in a war and economic spiralling.

Finally, an intelligent response.

"Liberals just happen to think we should also strive to do better socially, not just economically. It doesn't mean "Bush-hating" or "hating America first" (two signs of a real intelligent debator), it just means expecting us to live up to the expectations of our Constitution, not simply compare ourselves to the rest of the world."

What part of this speech was about doing better socially?

The liberal adgenda is higher taxes, unrestricted abortion, gay marrige, the erosion of personal stanards, political correctness and appesement of those who would attack us. But they can't get up in front of a crowd and say it. There was a democratic political ad posted by you two weeks ago about "A new direction for america." The problem with the ad is that it won't tell you what that direction is. Every fundraising speech they give, Howard Dean will tell you that they have a "new comprehensive plan" for _-insert issue here-_ but they won't tell you what that plan is. They'll toss out a few vague generalities at leave it at that.

But this speech doesn't talk about any of that. The title says it all. It's an "Anti-Bush" protest. They all get together and talk about how much we hate Bush, how much we hate America and for all of his chanting about the truth, I will submit to you that Rocky Anderson would not know the truth if it landed on his head. More importantly in his entire speech, Anderson does not offer a single solution, he has no answers, he doesn't know how to protect America from another attack and he's not going to tell you what he is going to do to fix things. When he looks out over the global-political landscape, he sees Bush's America as the enemy, as the oppressor. He doesn't want to talk about the groups and countries who have stated as their goal to see America torn down and destroyed; paging Islamic Fascist.

As the city's mayor, his term is up, once he's done, he's out. He is not staking anything on this protest, he's not risking his job. This man does not have the spine that you think he does.
