Thought the same thing. Although I have grown a tad more fond of Kid since I saw him on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives. He certainly had good taste in food and is steadfast in his support for his hometown.

I've heard that Norma McCorvey of Roe v Wade fame has said that she more or less regrets her role in this whole thing, but this is the first time I have seen her on screen. I don't care what your opinion is on abortion, some of these images make me want to vomit.

I'm not sure what your complaint is? Gender-specific advertising, maybe?

This doesn't creep you out slightly? At the vary least the portrayal of women? Are women that helpless? Women that actually fought for women's right would be rolling over in their graves.

I know this is crude, but here goes my version of comedy:

This ad points out that voting for Obama is like getting screwed. The End  ;D

My wife bristles at the idea that she should vote with her body parts in mind.  The "War On Women" will come back to haunt them.  At least from responsible ones.

It implies that women's place in the world hinges on a few knuckleheads in D.C.
