Lamar! Czar! …and that joke will get old fast.

‘Rain of hellfire.’ If I had told people six months ago that this was going to be the level of the rhetoric coming from the Democrats I would have been soundly mocked for it.

Suffice it to say that Senator Alexander (R, TN) is amused at the DNC’s decision to play Teh GREAT Internetz Defenderz!!!11!1ONE!1!!!!11!:

Hard not to be amused: it’s not every day that you see a major party organization threaten to unleash a “rain of hellfire” on health care rationing opponents.  Or, as we here in Reality Non-Unicorn like to call them, “56% of the population.”

PS: Yes, Lamar! was theoretically on to talk about the difference between positions that require Senate confirmation and postions that don’t (free hint: the Obama administration likes the latter.  A lot).  But why should I pretend that the DNC is anything except the White House’s sockpuppet?  Nobody else is.

The DNC goes after a peculiar demographic: Bush voters.

I hope that they spent money on this:

Look, I think that George W. Bush’s current unpopularity among the American people is a bit unfair, but I recognize that it exists – so trying to excuse the current President’s habit of doing end-runs around the nomination process because he’s just like Bush* is, well, dumb. The majority of the populace will react badly to the comparison and the percentage that won’t react badly will also not take it particularly seriously.

Michael Silence (via Instapundit) wants to know what the point was for this campaign ad.  I refer him to Andrew Klavan for the answer.

PS: No, by the way.

*Not that he is, more’s the pity.
