I love a good faux-grassroots group. A poster over at Little Green Footballs noted a Youtube user going by the name McBushBINLying<\/a> and questioned who was bankrolling him. Anyway, I started hunting around a bit. Seems McBushBINLying just started up a few weeks ago, and doesn’t like the Republican nominee. He also seems to have a friend named McCainsNotAmerican<\/a> who is pressing this ridiculous Panamanian thing. I won’t even go into how retarded that is. Anyway, that second person joined on October 17. BinLying joined the day before.<\/p>\n

BinLying likes to compare McCain to Hitler, which is like *SO* original. My personal favorite video of his is cleverly entitled “ALL RACIST FOR MCCAIN-MCCAIN IS NOT WHITE HES PANAMANIAN<\/a>.” Because, as you all know, Panamanians aren’t white. A lot of the charges this asshat makes appear to be based on the website ProgressiveOhio.org<\/a>. His video either uses the same info as that site, or they both get it from the same source. Either way, note the picture of McCain at the top, and the prolific use of it in his videos. (And once again, using fallacious votes, just take a look.)<\/p>\n

That isn’t really dispositive of anything, so I kept digging. Seems BinLying here also is a big fan of Worried Women of America<\/a>. He Favorites all their videos. Ever heard of ’em? Nope, me neither.<\/p>\n

So I went to their website. Look for the “Who We Are” page. It ain’t there. There is no indication whatsoever as to who these Worried Women are. But, if you are a worried woman, you can make a video and send it in to them:<\/a><\/p>\n

We invite you to address an issue of urgent importance to you. A simple declaration of your concerns about the consequences of electing this year\u2019s GOP ticket will do. Feel free to submit ideas, your feelings on the below topics or even a simple phrase.
\nSend the videos to:
\nAndrew Gilman
\nc\/o CommCore
\n1901 L St. NW
\nSuite 707
\nWashington, DC 20036<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wait a minute…..Worried Women of America is run by a dude? Not just one dude, 3 dudes. Here is CommCore’s website.<\/a> There’s Andrew, Jerry and Nicholas, the women who are worried. They aren’t worried about using small children in their hit piece videos though. Not even a little:<\/p>\n

Their actors are just that, actors.\u00a0 Those videos are no more grassroots than Star Wars.\u00a0 I’m going to keep digging, but I just love these groups.\u00a0 Love ’em.\u00a0 Here’s an idea: if you aren’t actually dudes, how about proving that.<\/p>\n

UPDATE: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! John McCain is pushing poisoned Chinese toys on Children!<\/p>\n

Have you no shame John McCain!\u00a0<\/p>\n

These are undoubtably the worst ads of the election, no?\u00a0 I emailed the clown running this circus, but I doubt I will hear back from him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
