I was perusing the ads on the sidebar of tbb when I saw this one:
At first I thought is was a joke because of the discrepancy between the type of people featured on the ad and the fact that it is an ad for the GOP. I find it very surprising that a party that is being run by rich white men, has decided to gear this campaign towards minorities, youth, and women.
Upon further investigation, I clicked the ad and was directed to the GOP‘s national website. And the surprise continued to unfold. Not only did I discover that I could buy a plush elephant from the GOP Store:

But I also discovered that it seems like Obama is officially public enemy number one. Check this image from the front page of the site:

Guess they just don’t want the rich white men to have to pay for these things since Obama is going to do away with tax breaks for them.
