MoveOn is pissing me off
They have a campaign linking Bush & McCain, and now they've gone too far -- they are using the theme song from The Patty Duke Show as part of some recent ad stuff.
First off, it pisses me off that they are taking one of the greatest shows ever on TV and linking it with Bush/McCain.
But, what really makes me mad is that this idea obviously came from some moron who knows nothing about the show! The central conceit of the show was that Patty & Cathy were superficially alike, but that they were very different in their thoughts, preferences, how they would react to situations, etc. Now, either the MoveOn people are actually hoping that McCain wins (by implying that Bush & McCain may look alike on superficial levels, but that they're really different), or the fools who came up with this marketing program never bothered to understand the material that they are using.
