Here Is the Plot of ‘The Obama Effect’

Yes, this is a real thing.

Hollywood has taken political propaganda to a new level this week with the release of “The Obama Effect.”

The production glorifies the ‘08 campaign through the eyes of a man who just had a heart attack and needs a new purpose in life. The character joins the Obama campaign and begins a (creepy) cult-like worshiping of the then unknown one-term Senator. His manic obsession leads to marital strain, quitting his job and a run-in with his gun-obsessed, cocaine-snorting Republican nephew who is “anti-black people,” even though he himself is black.

The Orwellian take-home message at the end of the trailer — they actually say this –is:

“Anyone who is with the Obama Campaign is gonna be alright!”

Coming soon to a theater near you. Bring your own barf bag.

For those old enough to remember movie theater gimmicks. Where's William Castle when you need him?

We should borrow his gimmick of wiring the seats of the theater with electricity (as he did for "The Tingler")-- it would be useful for treating the cardiac arrests this movie will induce.

The Obama Effect clogs my toilet.

Why not follow the freshmen of the class of 2012 through college and job search post graduation?

Yes, because if you are a Republican, and black, it automatically means you hate black people (including yourself).

Gotta love brainwashing, huh?

Coming soon, it will be required viewing/showing at schools, just like Algore’s make-believe movie (which is actually a power point presentation).

Coming to you in “Condescending-Palaver-O-Vision”

Mr. Dutton, Leni Riefenstahl called—she’s embarrassed for you.

[IMR 4350]

Sounds like something from the mind of a manic depressive right before they commit suicide.

[doberville]

Dynamite!!

[Vaduz]

They need to change the title from The Obama Effect to Ghetto Glitter.

At first I thought this was a gag or a hoax. But yes, it’s a real movie.

You were right both times -- it is a real movie and it does make one gag.

Love it how they have to go back to the glory days of the 2008 campaign, I smell desperation.
