"THAT GRIN": OBAMA STORYBOARDED

"THE DEFEAT OF
BARACK
HUSSEIN
OBAMA"


BARACK OBAMA

Someone leaked a copy of an ad campaign proposal targeted at separating a particular billionaire, one by the name of Joe Ricketts, from ten million of his dollars, and the fuss hit the fan today, with front-page coverage in the New York Times.

The focus seems to have been largely on the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr., connection to the Obamas (anybody remember 2008?), and Ricketts, and Governor Romney, have since been reported as disdaining to stoop to use the "Not God BLESS America, God DAMN America" minister to try to bring down Barack Hussein Obama this time around.

And here the political strategists who proposed this campaign, and this angle of attack, were hoping to get Mitt Romney to do "exactly what John McCain would not let us do," it was reported.

But there is much more of interest in this campaign proposal. Especially if you have never seen a storyboard for an ad, have a look at at this one, here. Lots of bases covered: the deficit, job losses, foreclosures, healthcare, the Russians. Yes, the Russians: Obama "Gets caught red handed caving to the Russians" (and this is apparently consistent with Governor Romney's threat assessment). Shades of their superpower days; shades, anyway, at least two decades old. And isn't there some other rising power? Second-largest economy in the world, and all that? Not in this universe.

Go beyond the voiceovers, and read the fine print instructions on the slides, to the left, to see the subliminal messages, and glimpses into the psychology behind this attack on "BO," on "Barack Hussein Obama," who is to be defeated. "BO" is "slick and cocky," and gives us "that grin" (their quotes, my italics).

See above.
