Cain’s horrible Ad

This campaign vid is an unqualified FAIL; the production quality, message [what message?], the smoking man and the leering image of Cain at the end all congeal to make it forgettable.

So… Why do I like it?

Possibly the smoking; it’s the hook that translates into ‘we’ve had our liberties taken away, now let’s get them back’. Maybe that was the real message…

Cain: Jesus was Conservative

October 20, 2011

Last December Herman Cain wrote a piece for RedState called ‘The Perfect Conservative’ in which he pegged Christ as a conservative man killed by a liberal court.

He led without a mandate. He taught without a script. His common sense parables filled people with promise and compassion, His words forever inspiring.

He never condemned what others believed – just sin, evil and corruption.

He helped the poor without one government program. He healed the sick without a government health care system. He feed the hungry without food stamps. And everywhere He went, it turned into a rally, attracting large crowds, and giving them hope, encouragement and inspiration.

For three years He was unemployed, and never collected an unemployment check. Nevertheless, he completed all the work He needed to get done. He didn’t travel by private jet. He walked and sailed, and sometimes traveled on a donkey.

….

His followers are now millions and millions the world over, as those who resent Him have intensified their attacks on who He was and what His followers believe.

The attacks are disguised as political correctness, or a misunderstanding of the First Amendment to the Constitution. Separation of Church and State does not mean Separation of Church from State. The State cannot impose Church on the people, but the people can display and say as much Church in the public square as they desire.

Our Founders recognized that distinction, which helped to inspire the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the founding of this nation – The United States of America!

We must be the Defending Fathers and the defenders of the perfect conservative.

Interesting… Many people claim Jesus was liberal because he was compassionate, as though conservatives are not… but I like Cain’s take.
