RUSH: There\u2019s a new video commercial on YouTube that is a remake of the Apple Computer commercial launched in 1984 during the Super Bowl produced by great movie director Ridley Scott (he\u2019s done some good movies) and it just destroys Hillary Clinton. It literally destroys Hillary Clinton. The tagline at the end of the commercial makes it look like that it\u2019s from Barack Obama. He\u2019s out there denying that it\u2019s his handiwork. I have an idea whose idea and handiwork this is. It could be David Geffen. Geffen has the know-how, plus he could handle the legals on something like this. That\u2019s just a wild guess, ladies and gentlemen, but this is a new era. <\/p>\n

<\/a>With all of the campaign commercials that are going to be running on the Internet, television broadcast outlets will still get their money and they\u2019ll still get their complement of political ads, but it\u2019s going to be all over the ballpark on the Internet. It\u2019s a brave new world out there, and it\u2019s only just begun. The whole point of this ad is you have Hillary on a giant screen with whole bunch of drones, a bunch of mind-numbed robots that are filing it. It looks like the movie Soylent Green, just a bunch of people being filed in to be dispatched. They\u2019re just zombies, and they\u2019re listening to Hillary on this giant screen utter one clich&eacute; after another about her conversation with Americans. There are two areas of seats. There\u2019s a row right between them in the middle, and this woman looking like an Olympic athlete comes charging down the aisle carrying a sledgehammer, winding up ready to toss it. Finally she tosses it and just obliterates and destroys the screen on which Hillary Clinton is uttering her clich&eacute;s — and, of course, it\u2019s called ‘1984.\u2019 It has the Big Brother reference in it. This time the woman\u2019s wearing an iPod, by the way. She has her candidate slogan on the T-shirt that she\u2019s wearing. <\/p>\n

The tag line for this is, &ldquo;On January 14th, a Democrat primary will begin, and you\u2019ll see why 2008 won\u2019t be like 1984,\u2019 and there\u2019s an updated Apple logo transformed into an O. The Apple logo used to be an Apple with rainbow colors. This is an O with rainbow colors, and it\u2019s followed with the logo ‘BarackObama.com.\u2019 So here you have Hillary just mouthing inanities, clich&eacute;s, to a bunch of drones and a woman walks in and just totally destroys it. Somebody\u2019s made a copy of this that goes five minutes. That second version doesn\u2019t look nearly as professionally well done as the first, but it\u2019s still fascinating. I guarantee you at Clinton, Inc., they\u2019re trying to pinpoint who did this, and if they can find out that Obama had anything to do with it — and he\u2019s out there denying it, of course. But this is the thing about the Internet: anybody can put anything up there. Callers to a talk show can, too. Anybody can call a talk show and claim to be anybody they want to be and say whatever they want to say, and how do you really disapprove it? <\/p>\n

It\u2019s the responsibility of the host to determine whether or not something is air worthy in that sense, but on the Internet — and this is not a complaint — there is no such filter or guide. I don\u2019t mean to sound like a Drive-By journalist here in worrying about no filter on the Internet. That\u2019s not what I mean. It\u2019s just that anybody can put anything up there, put BarackObama.com at the end of it and make it look like it\u2019s his whether it is or not. I think eventually they\u2019ll find out who did it. This is getting such rave reviews that the ego of whoever did this will not survive long in anonymity. A person is going to want to take credit for it. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Michael in Palm Bay, Florida. Michael, it\u2019s nice to have you on the EIB Network. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you very much for having me, Rush. First of all, I would like to say that I will not assuage my white guilt by going for Obama. I\u2019ll do it by going for the Limbaugh-Coulter ticket.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (Laughing.) That\u2019s an excellent suggestion, sir. Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, my point is about this Clinton ad — that might be from Obama or may not from Obama — the commercial that\u2019s going on.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, on YouTube. Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. If you go to YouTube and look under Futurama, you will find one that\u2019s titled the ‘Mom 1984 rip-off commercial.\u2019 That entire commercial is a rip-off from the show Futurama that plays on Adult Swim every weeknight.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, yes, but it\u2019s also a direct rip-off of an Apple commercial from 1984.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Which explains the transition, because at the end it\u2019s PlanEx and not FedEx, just like it\u2019s Obama and not Apple. It\u2019s totally targeted to the 18-to-24 age range.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Are you in that age range?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes, sir, I am. I\u2019m 24 years old.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right. What is it about the Internet that — I know you don\u2019t have a hard, age-range demo of 18 to 24. What is it about the Internet that makes this particular spot on the Internet targeted at 18-to-24-year olds?<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s not the fact that, necessarily, it\u2019s on the Internet. It\u2019s the fact that it\u2019s getting all the news coverage that it\u2019s getting and the show is total — remember a few weeks back with that Boston thing, the bombs that were supposedly in Boston, and there were all these characters from the Adult Swim show called Aqua Teen Hunger Force?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s on at just about the same time block. It\u2019s all targeted to the 18s to 24s and it\u2019s just one of those association things that somebody of my age may make and be like, ‘Hey, well, I\u2019m for Obama.\u2019<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, actually, whoever did this, it\u2019s brilliantly done. <\/p>\n

CALLER: Very brilliantly done.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s very well done, and look, here it is on the Internet, and all of a sudden it\u2019s spread to the mainstream. I\u2019ve seen the news networks today playing excerpts of the video.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, the lady running in and throwing the sledgehammer, hitting Hillary — or Mom — right in the face.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, if I would have done the ad I would have put some different stuff up about Hillary. I would have had her comments up there about wanting to take Exxon\u2019s profits for example. There are any number of things other than her clich&eacute;s. One of the things that leads me to believe that a Democrat did this is that they\u2019re going after her clich&eacute;s and not her substance. If somebody had gone after her substance, like ‘I just want to take Exxon\u2019s profits,\u2019 or any of her other very leftist policy statements — <\/p>\n

CALLER: Being for the war and against —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Whatever. You can say, ‘Well, maybe a Republican organization did this,\u2019 but the fact that a Democrat or a leftist did this is&hellip; There has been a push ever since I\u2019ve been alive to get the ‘youth vote.\u2019 Candidates have tried MTV, ‘Rock the Vote\u2019 and all these things. They get a lot of registrations but they don\u2019t show up.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s why you need to be back on TV, Rush, because you caught me way back when I was young and I\u2019ve been listening to you ever since.<\/p>\n

<\/a>RUSH: You\u2019re a Rush Baby<\/a>?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Not by birth but by choice, yes, sir. I\u2019m a Rush Baby.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right. Well, the point is, let me ask you. Will the Internet succeed in reaching these 18-to-24-year-olds who, because they\u2019ve got other things on their mind, obviously have no interest in politics?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think it\u2019ll get their vote just because so many — I look at people my age, Rush, and they believe that I\u2019m an idiot because I don\u2019t believe that global warming caused by man is a fact.<\/p>\n

RUSH: We know that most 18 to 24-year-olds are still skulls full of mush. We understand, and we know that the ones that you would know, their minds have been flaked and formed by academia and so forth. I think the Internet is going to have a dramatic effect on reaching that age-group, which is why it\u2019s going to be fascinating to watch the kind of stuff that ends up there. You\u2019re going to see more candidates putting their commercials up there as opposed to broadcast TV.<\/p>\n
