Politicans should stay out of debates about Super Bowl commercials. I saw the one with Clint Eastwood for Chrysler and didn't think much of it. Actually, the only think I did think of was it made me wonder what's worse: A film made by Clint Eastwood in this century, or any vehicle made by the Chrysler company, ever, but that's a debate for another day. No, this debate comes from political strategists and canned
ham Karl Rove. He says it's a pep talk for Obama's
re-election.The leadership of auto companies feel they need to do something to repay their political patronage. It is a sign of what happens when you have Chicago-style politics, and the president of the United States and his political minions using our tax dollars to buy corporate advertising.
I think he's starting to believe his own bullshit. You could just as easily hear Clint say they need to
change leadership, but that wouldn't fit in with Karl's squealing about the Democratic boogeyman he sees lurking in every corner. Someone needs to remind him who authored Detroit's bailout to GM and Chrysler. Hint: you used to work for
him.
