BEDFORD: Creepy Uncle Sam is the best political mascot since normal Uncle Sam ByChristopher Bedford5:04 PM 09/20/2013 The left is having a temper tantrum. Readinga couple of liberal scribes over the past 24 hours, we can almost hear the huffing and puffing, the indignant stamping of feet; reading their tweets, we can nearly hear the feverish pitch of their whines. Oh, the outrage. Won’t somebody please think of the children? On and on. The cause? These hysterically creepy ads GenerationOpportunityreleased urging young people to opt out of Obamacare on Oct. 1. Complaints have ranged from the mundane to the delusional, with the ever-reliable folks at MSNBCseeing racismin the ads’ diverse set of actors. But brushing aside the panicked innuendos the left brings to every waking moment, all the young folks over at Generation Opportunity are seeing are clicks. Awareness of their cause. Alertness to their message. Because seriously, when is the last time an anti-Obamacare ad went viral? And viral it went. Published on Thursday, the videos have already racked up over one million hits combined. In the first 24 hours, over 100 publications wrote them up.... So let the outrage continue. Let more readers click, and learn a thing or two about the options they have in front of them. Giving citizens the information they need to make important and informed decisions about their lives and theirhealth careis, as one powerful liberal isfond of saying, “The right thing to do.” Oh, and one more thing for all our well-meaning liberal friends: If you see a rubber glove rectal exam and think this ad has anything to do with “sex,” you’re probably not doing it right. ba wa ha ha ha!
