Too far?


A repost from my personal blog...
__________________________________________________

I got an email earlier telling me about this video parody of Jan Brewer's Arizona or what it will be like if she is wins this Nov and becomes remains our (Arizona) Governor.

Here's the description of the video and afterwards I'll post the video. Let me know what you think. Did it go too far or is it just funny/awesome enough to get the point across?

"If you're a fan of director Danny Boyle ("Slumdog Millionaire"), then you may be familiar with his cult favorite "28 Days Later," a post-apocalyptic zombie flick that has inspired countless parodies on the Internet. Now, the Arizona Democratic Party has created its own version of "28 Days Later." Our 3 1/2-minute parody looks at Arizona's "future" if Jan Brewer is elected. We'll let you decide how far fiction is from reality..."






Overall, I thought it was pretty well done video. I'm still on the fence on whether it went to far... it kinda feels like something the "other side" would do.

It definitely seems logical they would do this video but I don't know that it truly is WAY OUT THERE. I think it stands to make a point.

True, but I don't like fear tactics from any side and it seems like this one is borderline... but that's just me. :P

Well, I highly doubt that people watching this take this as a true potential future. It didn't seem like a scare tactic to me but more like an attention grabbing ad.

I also don't think that this propaganda will help people sway away from voting for her if that's what they truly want to do.
