Errol Morris was the one who came up with those very witty ads that featured former PC users who switched to Macs. Now, he's lending his sure Madison Avenue hand to the Move On PAC. In these new versions he's profiling republicans who have pledged to vote for John Kerry. There's about a dozen, including the winner, who was a marine who served in Iraq. He's not happy. I kinda like the black republican who sez "Come on" a lot, but they're all good.
Move On plans on running these ads during the GOP convention. More power to them.
"America was never innocent. We popped our cherry on the boat over and looked back with no regrets. You can't ascribe our fall from grace to any single event or set of circumstances. You can't lose what you lacked at conception.
"Mass-market nostalgia gets you hopped up for a past that never existed. Hagiography sanctifies shuck-and-jive politicians and reinvents their expedient gestures as moments of great moral weight. Our continuing narrative line is blurred past truth and hindsight. Only a reckless verisimilitude can set that line straight."
