The Democratic National Committee is using the Super Bowl as an opportunity to release a football-themed attack ad on New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and the George Washington Bridge lane-closure fiasco -- its latest in a spate of online spots based on the scandal.

What was that stuff about conspiracies and whatnot?

You can always tell who liberals are afraid of by who they attack.

I agree, but here is another example of how they use the NFL as a political arm.

Sports imagery knows no political affiliation.

Hell, the RNC could do the same thing, if they were so inclined.

For one it's not the RNC's target. Secondly, the NFL works for the DNC.

*sigh*

1. The RNC could use sports imagery to ding a democratic politician all they wanted.

2. You saying the NFL works for the DNC doesn't make it so no matter how many times you say it.

3. Even if it were true, I don't see any NFL-affiliated indicators in the video. Just a bunch of generic football players. Hell, they might be high school kids. Ooooooh, I hadn't thought of this. Maybe the high school teams are in with the DNC, too.

The NFL didn't even license the words "Super Bowl" to them.

I'm pretty sure most ads released in NY, NJ, and the rest of the US today are "Big Game" themed. Hell the sign out in front of the church down the street from me says "Pray before watching the big game today".

Guys, the NFL is a political arm of the DNC. They indeed push the liberal agenda. It's not even a matter of it being hidden at this point. It's beyond obvious. The area where you can sneak in an excuse has grown too small.

Even if I thought you weren't batshit crazy with that, what does the NFL have to do with that ad?

If you thought I was batshit crazy, you wouldn't even respond. You know there is truth to this.

The NFL has everything to do with this. They control the advertising. They don't make all their money on ticket sales and merchandise alone.

Is this ad going to be aired during the NFL's airtime? Are the NFL shield, team images, or words "National Football League" and "Super Bowl" going to have a presence?

[sarcasm]Random football theme, no NFL licensing, and not airing during the NFL broadcast definitely indicates NFL involvement. Open and shut case.[/sarcasm]

You're right, they also make their money off of advertising which will appear during their broadcast. If it's not during their broadcast, they make it because of licensing their name and team names on material.

Neither one of these are happening here. The commercial can't even mention anything that the NFL has a trademark on because they don't have the license. That's why they had to say "Big Game".

That's not true at all. I respond to batshit crazy people on internet message boards, all the time.

You still haven't offered the first fact that ties the NFL to this ad.

I liked that add.

Here is the ad and it's pretty lame. The left if focused on a traffic problem that happened months ago where no one was harmed and people were fired over it. But where are they when American ambassadors die, the IRS targets political groups, the DoJ taps the phones of reporters, and so on?

Liberals can only attract dumb, imbecilic voters.

Good. Maybe this will help him comeback.

“THEY SAY HE IS UNSTOPPABLE", "They" as in the DNC? Because the RNC has said nothing of the kind. Brother, Libs are stupid.

The Libs/DNC trotted out Richard Simmons in an ObamaCare ad. They are getting pretty lame.

What did he know, and when did he know it.

But does this prove that the NFL is an "arm of the DNC"?
