YouTube - Tiger Woods Military Industrial Complex Parody (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0GQMo1gT-k)
I post this in the spirit of outreach and activism...and I think it's pretty funny. This is a great tactic for us to use across the board in the online world when promoting Liberty. I've posted about this on the Ron Paul Forums as well. Facebook groups are a great place to start...building a coalition one issue at a time. And it doesn't hurt to start a site about pop culture...only to break out the Liberty message as we near elections.
If you didn't know this is apparently the hot thing right now with Youtube parodies:
NEW YORK — Few ads in the entire history of advertising have been riper for parody than Nike's new Tiger Woods commercial, with the voice of the golfer's late father seemingly admonishing him for his transgressions.
And so within hours of its first airing, this unusual (and, some say, totally creepy) ad had spawned a new generation of Dad-talking-to-Tiger videos.
And a more serious question, too: Even by the standards of edgy advertising, did both Nike and Tiger cross a line?
To be sure, Nike is relishing the attention. That is, after all, what advertising is about: Cutting through the clutter...
