Creepy Planned Parenthood ad:

Creepiest Ad of the Year?

This has to be one of the more creepy ads of the year, right up there with Lena Dunham’s voting-is-like-sex ad for Obama.

Ryan Bomberger is an African-American pro-lifer who runs the Radiance Foundation. He said this, “The Center for Reproductive Rights, like Planned Parenthood, certainly understands its main demographic. Happy 40th Anniversary Baby ironically uses a man (who is normally treated as persona non grata) to pitch abortion. The fact that they use a black man just screams irony . . . with the black abortion rate as high as it is and black fathers as absent as they are, it’s just sick to see Mehcad Brooks shill for the number one killer in the black community, and the killer of 55 million plus since ’73.”

How can that even be taken seriously? It really is so creepy. He goes back and forth from looking like “a player” and the devil himself. Wow… are they really using it?
......
It is a fascinating and perhaps brilliant performance by Mehcad Brooks. One almost has to conclude that either he hadn’t the vaguest idea what he was doing, or he’s adamantly anti-abortion. He seems to exude evil. I had to do a fair amount of googling to convince myself this wasn’t really the work of a pro-life group masquerading as a pro-abortion group to try to make the pro-aborts seem wicked.

That is almost like a sick parody of “The Ladies’ Man”from Mad TV and his “Courvoi-thee-ay”.

It’s fitting considering the subject matter and history. Most of the general public are unaware that the “feminist” amicus curiae behind Roe V. Wade was Hugh Hefner. It’s at the top of his resume, if you can stand it: http://www.esquire.com/features/what-ive-learned/ESQ0602-JUN_WIL Mehcad Brooks is in good company with this dirty old white man and the evil, twisted black-hating white racist Margert Sanger. What kind of wine goes best with irony?

Two things come to mind. One, for decades many of us have tried to warn just how sick the American Left has become. Two, the Left simply is no longer self-aware enough to be appalled by their own “product.” A corollary to number one perhaps. The Samuel Jackson Obama ad is an example of this.
