AttackWatch Twits

Election '12: You know a presidential campaign is going south when its detractors have more fun with its website than do its fans. That's the case with AttackWatch.com, the Obama site that's making him a parody.

According to the logic of AttackWatch.com — cue "Jaws" music — there's a vast, right-wing conspiracy out there determined to lie about the president and vote him out of office. Drastic steps are needed, and the comically menacing black-and-red AttackWatch website is the answer.

Calling on readers to "Get the facts. Fight the Smears," about President Obama's record, the site actually encourages all Americans to become snitches for Obama. That mimics the 2008 Obama campaign's "FightTheSmears.com" site, as well as the George Soros-funded MediaMatters.com. AttackWatch asks readers to "report" the "lies," presumably so the Obama team won't have to Google its own record.

On Twitter, this pompous, conspiracy-minded premise has managed only to attract an outburst of humor.

"I saw a kid eating fries with his happy meal yesterday," tweeted someone signing himself NostraSeamus.

You have no clue about what you speak and are like the herd that thinks everybody but themselves are RINOs

That is sheeple, herd mentality, intellectual vacuousness

“Architekt010 RT @GregWHoward: #AttackWatch My neighbor thinks Obama is more of a horse’s ass than I do. Now, where’s my Gestapo armband? #tcot #p2 #ocra”

[HeartlandOfAmerica]

WHy in the word do you think that everyone should like that trash just because you do???

It's empty headed pap and the only ones who truly like it are the stinkin producers because they're laughing all the way to the bank with no production costs to speak of, no salaries to speak of, no sets or props to speak of, just idiots watching idiots.

That's all I got to say on the subject.

Not trying to be snide. Are you under the influence of a hallucinogen?

And did you ever notice how good the production values on "Cheaters" are. Truly an uplifting show. Not at all a waste of time for the simple minded.
