I find this disturbing ~ the children appear drugged and "Stepford-like" ~ it's also an astoundingly poor judgment call ~ Image

Perhaps you guys need to investigate satire and/or parody.  Image

Perhaps this "parody" has backfired, eh?

I'm sure this is a spoof, a mocking parody. I thought it was hilarious! Image

Ha.  I'm sorry, sooz, but I think it's funny.  Obviously, it is not intended to be taken seriously.  It's a joke.  I don't even really see it as in poor taste. 

I do think that Romney and his people have no clue how much his attitude about his money and taxes, etc, angers me and others who think like me.  However, this video makes no difference.  Kids make no difference in all of this.  Right now dems make no difference in all of this.  It's up to the repubs to choose the rich guy who is oblivious to what most people go through or Mr. Immoral.  I just saw on ABC news the poll taken of voters today only 17% say moral character is the most important thing.  What they care about is who can beat Obama.  Too bad the dems can't be sure that Obama won't be beaten.  The fact that one of the slimeballs running for the repubs could beat Obama is pretty sad and so far I haven't seen much to change that.  Haven't seen much to show that the House and Senate will be much different so not a lot of point in even listening to Obama's promises.  They mean nothing if all else stays the same.

At any rate.  I think the video was so extreme and exaggerated it was hilarious.  Am I saying that many if not most children of the rich don't get that attitude?  Nope.

Yeah, I think this is a joke.  a couple of twelve year olds with a cell phone and a photoshop account.  My neice has enough equipment, she could have done this.

and that's just what kids look like when they're public speaking--i mean, unless they're those creepy pageant kids.  kids go wooden in front of a camera or audience.

I can accept it just being me who doesn't find this funny ~ but that doesn't change my mind ~ and FTR, greeny, my niece and nephews [now 16, 15, and 25] have always loved the attention, whether it be a camera or an audience ~ that just depends on the kid ~
