Leave it to the tone deaf GOP to find a way of attaching themselves to this election cycle's "change" mandate that simultaneously reinforces the fact that their failed policies have messed up the world to such an inhuman extent that many Americans now live their daily lives in a state of free-floating panic and paralyzing anxiety.... It looks like Republicans will counter the Democratic push for change from the years of the Bush administration with their own pledge to deliver, drum roll please, "the change you deserve." The first element of the party agenda developed over the past few months by the leadership and select party members will focus on family issues.... What the GOP doesn't seem to realize, because they are idiots, is that "the change you deserve" is the registered advertising slogan of Effexor XR, a drug that many of you might have started taking as a result of all the...you know -- terrorism.
You know that you're electoral prospects are circling the drain when the best slogan you can come up with invites the comparison of the GOP with an anti-depressant. Well, it could have been worst, I suppose; the brainiac who came up with this could have borrowed from an ED medication. Come to think of it, after what they've been doing to this country for the past eight years, that might provide a more appropriate slogan.
