Brought to you by the fine folks over at Slate.
NSFW but nothing worse than what you would see or hear in any hip-hop video on MTV.
Nice to see all those years of trolling the Something Awful forums weren’t for naught, eh? And they said pirating a copy of Flash would never amount to anything…
AND IT GETS BETTER: the Hahn campaign is shocked, SHOCKED!, that this sort of thing happened. The want an immediate bi-partisan condemnation of the sexist, racist video. Because, you know, the only racist people are Republicans:
Before you charge racism at the ad, consider her one line in the video: “It takes a different kind of person to speak the language.” By that she means, it takes black people to talk to black people. It takes gang members to talk to gang members. They have their own language, we should coddle them. They’re not responsible for their actions if they murder someone, rape someone. They’re a minority.
All of that’s bunk. I’m from New Orleans. We have creole food, we have cajun food, we have french food, and we mix it all up. Anyone can talk to anyone.
And the main message to gang members in any city should be: want to kill someone? Want to rape someone? Meet Mr. Policeman. He will escort you to jail.
…where you will meet with a congresslady and she will get you out of jail so you can then help—in a non-racist way—with the other…people of you kind.

Basically it's a "Willie Horton" message with a 21st Century bent. Good stuff.
Too over the top for the idiot box and the general public, of course, but very effective as a rallying cry for partisans.
Probably the most amusing aspect of the ad is the way in which leftists are gnashing their collective teeth about it. The truth hurts.

What is the best way to respond to the truth about you?
Play some golf and pretend it never happened.

Janice Hahn, wasn't she the one involved with Jim Bakker when he was cheating on Fanny Mae or whatever her name with all that makeup was?

No Chico, that was Jessica Hahn.
Don't let up on the drug use, its working.
That ad will hose her harder than she hosed the tax payers that footed the bill for her program and deservedly so.

Saying don't vote for her, there are enough gangsters and thugs in Congress, could backfire. Those terms are high praise for Dems.

Boy - that ad strikes me as very racist. I'm amazed conservatives will stand to have their party associated with this kind of advertising.
