Have you seen this laxative ad?

Well, it's not exactly for laxatives though it seems to be. It's Joe Lieberman's latest campaign ad and boy, is it weird.

1. Yeah, it reminds me of the euthanasia scene in 'Soylent Green.' n/t

2. Here are some other ones - at least the slogans.

"Relax, with Exlax. The candy with the fluid drive."

"Exlax gives you a run for your money".

And an oldie: "Exlax presents Bing Crosby. Two announcements - then Bing."

4. Holy CRAP! I recognize that! That's not a laxative ad...

It's the Dead Kennedys "Advice from Christmas Past"!!!
That same female voice-over:
"Why are such a stupid asshole?
Would you really like to know?
Well, pay your fee, remove your clothes,
and Yvette will show you how.
You went to school where you were taught to fear and to obey,..."

5. I just watched it on Firedoglake.

WTF?? Is he trying to put people to sleep? Hypnotize them?

7. Good question. Who the heck

is doing his advertising? Relax and think about the good stuff? Stuff?

Anyone could dream this up after a couple of beers.

6. That's a viagra commercial if I ever saw one

That commercial is what impotent campaigns run when they have nothing good to say about their current positions. Politcal viagra isn't going to help you now Joe.
