Suprised no one posted this yet. All over cnn, fox news, the radio, co-worker talk etc.
One thing my co-worker noticed something that I didn’t catch. The hammer throwing chick is wearing an iPod, something that obviously wasn’t in the original. So this wasn’t a simple edit and had to have come from someone with some real money invested.
Obama is denying he had anything to do with it.

Here is the original ad:
Her shirt is different too. I’m guessing they re-shot the entire part with the girl. Or did one hell of a job dubbing a new one in. Either way I don’t think this was done in someone’s basement in their spare time.

Meh, I didn’t post it because I think this is more newsworthy:

I just don’t see the big deal. So someone made an anti-hillary vid. Wasn’t necessarily big budget. Could have even been a school project or something.

Shit, it is just an edited version of the original film. Watch the chick’s shirt closely. Sometimes it does have that weird red, white, and blue logo, sometimes it’s white, sometimes it matches the orignal shirt from the Apple advertisement.
Here, I took all 4 of these screen caps from the Hillary vid. The first one shows the logo that appears on her shirt throughout most of the new clip, the second one show the same design that’s on the shirt in the original Apple ad, and the other two show how it varies throughout the vid as a result of choppy editing:
So figure out what that logo is and you’ll explain how and why the ad exists. :eyebrow:
Goddam. I should a be a detective. :pimp:

Considering it’s a poor edit job of apple’s 20th anniversary of that ad in 2004 I’d say it was a basement job.

In 1984 Apple produced a commercial for the soon-to-be-released Mac, declaring it a revolution, don’t be a zombie following the norm, think for yourself, blah blah blah.
Someone made a parody of it saying not to follow hillary, think for yourself, don’t be a zombie swallowing her brainwashing, blah blah blah.

from what I understand, seems like a bunch of brainwashed people staring at her and emotionlessly listening to her rhetoric… then the chick in the hooters (obama?) uniform comes and saves the day?

Have you read 1984?
It was about a totalitarian state, where no one has any freedom to choose anything and everyone was the same.
The commercial originally run by apple was run in 1984 essentially taking a poke at PCs, by showing there was an alternative out there instead of being one in the same.
The usage of Hillary in this is basically comparing her to a dictator.
EDIT: Oh wow, beat by two minutes. Hooters will save us FTW

So Obama isn’t a black guy, he’s a blonde chick?
Fox News lied again. Those fucking Republicans.
