Two in ‘Republican women for Obama’ ad exposed as Democrats
Daily Caller ^ | August 25, 2012 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 08/27/2012 5:34:40 AM PDT by Pinkbell

Although the ad got a lot of playtime on MSNBC Friday, a recent so-called “Republican women for Obama” video advertisement has turned out to be a disingenuous campaign ploy.

That ad, posted on the official Barack Obama campaign YouTube page on Friday, claimed to show a group of women that had previously voted Republican but later abandoned the party because they felt it went too far to the right, leaving them no alternative but to vote for President Barack Obama this November.

The problem is, so far two of these women have been shown to be Democrats who had previously supported Obama.

First pointed out by Zeke Miller of Buzzfeed, one of the featured actors in the video, Maria Ciano had been a registered Democrat since October 2006, according to Colorado voter registration records.

John Hinderaker of Powerline took it a step further and investigated Ciano’s Facebook page and found some of her Facebook “likes” fall under many left-on-center causes:

By any means necessary, just like Al Qieda and the Muslims.
It is OK to lie to the infidel (American people) if it furthers their agenda.

Obama cannot even spell O H I O!

Why would you expect him & his minions to have any truth in their ads?

NAIL ON HEAD.

You got that right.

I and my wife looked at the 2008 obama rallies and this years rallies.

We always look at the crowd behind him and why is it that Dem women wear to shirts, look scruffy, never nice look sexy dresses. They look like angry women or look like men.
They look rough, ugly not every classy and they always jump up and down as if bozo the clown was their messiah
The men look either like the typical union worker or the girlie boy student types .

Compare to our rallies, the women have mostly longish hair, look like a woman , wear classy sexy clothing, look clean, hair done, make up on, etc.
The men look well dressed, look like a man .
Neither jump up and down screaming and fainting like they do.?

I know a liberal, who I KNOW is insane, said “I always vote for the man and never the party. I did vote for Reagan once during a fit of insanity.” He not only said this. He wrote it on facebook for all the world to see. You know someone’s nuts when they write something stupid and have all the chances in the world to think about it and all the time in the world to delete it.

THE MEDIUM IS THE MESSAGE The Medium is the Massage by Marshall McLuhan




"McLuhan proposed that media themselves, not the content they carry, should be the focus of study—popularly quoted as "the medium is the message". McLuhan's insight was that a medium affects the society in which it plays a role not by the content delivered over the medium, but by the characteristics of the medium itself. McLuhan pointed to the light bulb as a clear demonstration of this concept. A light bulb does not have content in the way that a newspaper has articles or a television has programs, yet it is a medium that has a social effect; that is, a light bulb enables people to create spaces during nighttime that would otherwise be enveloped by darkness. He describes the light bulb as a medium without any content. McLuhan states that "a light bulb creates an environment by its mere presence." More controversially, he postulated that content had little effect on society—in other words, it did not matter if television broadcasts children's shows or violent programming, to illustrate one example—the effect of television on society would be identical. He noted that all media have characteristics that engage the viewer in different ways; for instance, a passage in a book could be reread at will, but a movie had to be screened again in its entirety to study any individual part of it."


The medium of women supporting obama is all that matters the truth or lie of the story does not matter. Only the image of women supporting the communist.

What a shocker.

I was a 12 in 1996 and I remember an ad with a “lifelong Republican” mother and daughter voting Clinton cause Dole was too extreme on abortion opposing it “even in cases of rape and incest”. I didn’t believe those commercial actresses were really mother and daughter let alone Republican and I don’t believe all the letters to the editor I’ve read that start “I’m a Republican but...”.

This tactic annoys me. As do commercials were the actors pretend to be “real people on the street” or real “satisfied customers” in general.
