I just saw an Obama ad this morning that was saying something about McCain sending jobs overseas, free trade, blah blah blah then implying Obama is against “trade deals” which made me so annoyed because it reminded me of Obama’s NAFTA double-speak in the primary.

I used to see them – twice – in every commercial break. None now.

I am sharing this idea on several blogs this week where others are not supporting Obama.
For the record:
I am a PUMA in northern VA
I am a Black woman
I am a registered democrat
I am one of the voters who supported Hillary Clinton in the primary
AND I am not voting for Obama-Biden.
I am so tired of hearing about Obama spending big bucks to run his infomercial on October 29th by trying to blanket mainstream television airways.
I think we need to begin to promote a โTurn off Obama-TVโ on October 29th. I say – Do NOT Listen to or Watch Obamaโs 30 minute commercial on October 29, 2008. Obama thinks he can MAKE us listen to what he has to say by spending all that money in order to have his commercial on several networks at the same time. We do NOT have to listen. We do NOT have to support this gimmick.
Letโs all participate in: โTurn Off Obama-TVโ that night. On October 29th for that specific 30 minutes: Push mute – Turn down the sound โ Change the channel – or Turn off the television. Do not listen to any more of Obamaโs hot air, false promises or his lies about McCain-Palin.
INSTEAD for that 30 minutes do something else with your brain cells โ (hereโs a few ideas)
Watch a different tv program
Watch a DVD or video
Listen to the radio
Listen to a CD
Read a book or magazine
Play a board game
Surf the web
Watch YouTube videos
Call a friend on the phone
Play a video game
Write an email to a friend
Work on one of the word games or word puzzles in the newspaper
Play the piano (or instrument of your choice)
Do some exercising
Play a card game
Work on your familyโs scrapbooks
Bake Halloween cookies or cupcakes
Work on your favorite hobby
Between now and Oct 29th โ Let others know that you are choosing NOT to listen to & to NOT watch Obamaโs commercial. And encourage others to join in a national response to this media effort.
Please join me by choosing to turn away from Obamaโs efforts to control the outcome of this election by spending so much money on a one night media blitz.
Tell all your family & friends to โTurn Off Obama-TVโ on Oct. 29th!!

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth – just enjoy any respite from the annoying one.

A good idea. I shall promote it as well. I haven’t been watching politics on teevee in the last 8 years myself. Let’s all watch instead Pushing Daisies – it’s a great show and high ratings may send a message!

I’m actually putting together a piece about some really serious reasons we should all avoid it. I’ll try to remember to drop a link here when it’s posted over at Insight Analytical.
