    9/11-themed Republican ad to tell Americans 'life depends' on their vote

    9/11-themed ad to tell Americans 'life depends' on their vote

    A new ad set to be placed in key markets by a neoconservative think tank will tell Americans that their lives literally depend on their votes in the upcoming midterm election, RAW STORY has learned.

    Over images of the 2001 attack on the World Trade Center, an off-camera narrator will tell voters in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Missouri, Virginia and Vermont that "the world is a dangerous place. Islamic terrorists hate us for who we are and what we stand for."

    The Center for Security Policy, an organization linked to a number of well-known neoconservatives, produced the ad. Though it claims to be nonpartisan, it centers around the widely-used Republican "cut and run" talking point.

    The sixty-second spot argues that an exit from Iraq would be seen as a sign of weakness by America's enemies. Anti-American statements from a variety of Muslims in middle eastern countries are also displayed on screen as the narrator continues, "The next time someone suggests America should cut-and-run from the war on terror, ask them, 'run to where?'"

    A final on-screen graphic tells residents of those states to "vote as if your life depends on it. Because it does."

    My comment on the youtube video:

    This is from the Daily Show right? It's cutting edge satire...

    Oh it's not?
