Rick Santorum Reaches New Low With "Obamaville" Ad. (aka: "I See NO BLAH People!")

Seriously, I thought Tim Pawlenty had the market cornered on post-Apocalyptic anti-Obama ads. Once Timmy bowed out, the crown moved on to the also-departed Herman Cain. Since epic Hollywood-style campaign ads seem to be in vogue this year, another guy who's got one foot in the race and another on a banana peel decided to try his hand. And boy, is this one a doozy.



Uhhh, is it just me, or is something (glaringly obvious) missing from this ad?

Where are the BLAH PEOPLE!?!?!

I guess we could read this three ways:
1) The hometown Obama destroyed never had any BLAH PEOPLE living there.

2) The BLAH PEOPLE were too busy celebrating the apocalypse Obama created. Cause, you know, this is BLAH PEOPLE's way to stick to to whitey, although Obama just so happens to be half-whitey himself.

3) This sh*t is racist.
Seriously, this is a new low. Forget the horror movie imagery, that's to be expected. Hyperbolic, sure. But hardly out of bounds.

The problem is the people depicted as victims. Creating a minute long campaign ad showing victims of "one President's failed policies" as solely white sure as hell didn't happen by accident. The only BLAH PERSON in the whole ad is Obama himself, who is shrewdly interspersed with clips of Iran President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, as if to make the two seem like one, for whatever dubious reason.[1]

There are also quick clips of other scary brown people with very long beards. Is Santorum trying to tell us that Obama only wants to harm white people? What the f*ck is this all about?

Rick, this is bullsh*t. Something you clearly know a lot about.

Question: What subliminal message is Rick Santorum trying to send here?

[1] Well, c'mon, it's no mystery, is it? Need I spell it out?
