This is a spoof of the Republican Party and their ideas and issues. Oddly, all of it is true!

It is a spoof political ad that essentially mimics the true policies of the Republican Party and uses a corny jingoistic soundtrack, sound effects and some retro announcer voiceover to bring the point home.

Script:

Vote Republican so we can keep the old ideas in place

Evolution is a satanic myth

Women need to have the child after they get raped or from incest

Global warming is not occurring and scientists are wrong

Embryonic stem cell research will lead to human cloning

Gay marriage will lead to people marrying their furniture

We need endless wars in far away places that no one can point to on a map

USA! USA! USA!

Vote Republican so we can keep the old ideas in place

6. It certainly was meant to be a tad like Trickie Dicky...
Unfortunately, the real Dick Nixon would be considered a moderate by today's standards...
