Vote for Saxby Chambliss: He Gropes Children!

Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 11:18 AM

Thought the election season was over? FAT FREAKING CHANCE. Tomorrow marks Georgia's run-off between Democrat Jim Martin and Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss -- the latter of whom has put out the CREEPIEST political ad I think I've ever seen. And that's saying a lot. I just keep watching and waiting for one of the family members to say, "Senator, please stop fondling your grandchild's breast. No... seriously. STOP."

I think that "groping" is a big stretch. Things like this actually piss me off - there are enough children facing serious harm without acting like what he does in this video is groping. If anything, things like this video make light of a very disturbing issue.

Eh. It's not actually real sexual groping, sure, but it's enough of a screw-up to make this commercial a hilarious blunder. How awkward.
