Default Hugh Jidette for President
I turned on the TV this AM, and saw this commercial on the NatGeo channel. It really made me scratch my my head and . Has anyone seen this, it appears to have been around for a couple of months?

This is the first I've seen of it, but I'm already a big fan of huge idiots... I mean Hugh Jidette.

Its been around awhile, i think its a parody on the current admin, and all the spending that's been going on. Just my take on it.

True, but every time the guy says his name I hear it as "huge idjit" - perhaps a bit of auditory dyslexia.

"Hugh Jidette isn’t concerned with saddling our children and grandchildren with a mountain of debt. After all, what have future generations ever done for us? So what if their taxes will have to double to pay for our debts? And the kids today are geniuses. Have you seen them on their computers? They’ll figure it out."

Some of this stuff is truly hilarious. Whoever wrote this copy should be a speechwriter on the Hill.
