TEMPLE OF DEM ON MT. O-LYMPUS (Same people who built Britney Spears' set)
NY Post ^ | 8/28/08 | JEREMY OLSHAN and GEOFF EARLE

Posted on 08/28/2008 8:25:24 AM PDT by teddyballgame

As if a Rocky Mountain coronation were not lofty enough, Barack Obama will aim for Mount Olympus when he accepts his party's nomination atop an enormous, Greek-columned stage - built by the same cheesy set team that put together Britney Spears' last tour...

..."We've done Britney's sets and a whole bunch of rock shows, but this was far more elaborate and complicated and we had to do it in far less time," said Allen, of RDA Entertainment... ...Asked who is harder to sat isfy - the Democrats or Britney - Allen replied: "I better not answer that."

I know I’m biased, but President Bush’s seems quite different to me. It looks like he was standing on a raised dais with a presidential seal (and he was the President). He isn’t standing amidst the columns in some kind of altar-like fashion.

Seems like the question isn’t how many houses McCain owns, but how many temples are dedicated to Obama!

Looks like a Greek restaurant or a certain clothing store I used to shop in as a youth.

I saw it this morning. Outstanding! The McCain ad folks have been totally on top of their game. Far, far better than I had hoped for.

Reminds one of Spinal Tap and their Stonehedge set. Wish somebody could photoshop Obama and a picture with the midgets from Spinal Tap running around on stage. Hillarious.

Obama's new campaign slogan -- "Oops, I did it again!"

Obama has been whining about the Britney ad and he has BRITNEY’S STAFF DESIGNING HIS TEMPLE.

It is delicious, isn't it. And has the look of a spectacularly cheesy gay bathhouse in Vegas. I'm expecting colored fountains, I'm expecting not balloons but helium filled condoms to drop from the ceiling.

Same here. They’ve been really on top of things, but that is apparently the way electioneering must be these days.

The Obama camp is now saying the “temple” is now supposed to invoke the Lincoln Memorial. More spin by Obama and the MSM.

It's going to look like Imperial Rome--a freudian slip on the part of Democrats--and specifically the Obamas--who drool at the thought of setting themselves up as American Emperors replacing the Republic with a totalitarian Empire!

Any Americans who think that these people would rule them any more benevolently than the Julian Family (remember Tiberius? Caligula? Nero?) ruled Rome are fools!

And anybody who thinks the Democrats wouldn't love to overthrow the Republic and replace it with a totalitarian oligarchy composed of themselves--is a fool.

They are already offering Bread and Circuses--welfare etc. and--well--have you watched the Democrat Convention???

Note tagline!

I don’t know who he has doing these ads, but they are some seriously talented people.

And while we were all watching the primary and asking each other “are they capturing this stuff for the pubbie campaign”, the answer was obviously yes :)

President Bush was already President of the United States of America in 2004. Obama is still JUST a Jr. Senator who talks big and walks small. And he has no freakin idea how to visit the Troops at Landstuhl all by himself without mommy at his side.

Yes! It’s excellent, isn’t it?

FOX just announced that there is a “new and unusual” ad for McCain coming out shortly- McCain speaking directly into the camera- to Obama.
