So, in the interest of Truth, I’d like to see some evidence to support your assertion. I’ll even offer $20 for it: show me an equivalent video of equally ignorant Obama supporters.

Ben, I have a few questions for you as per the parameters of your offer.

1.) Is it open to me?

2.) Can I film myself if I promise you that I am truly ignorant?

3.) Can I film myself displaying ignorance on other topics for bonus money?

4.) Would you accept a copy of my sixth grade video presentation on water treatment where I had obviously done no research and alleged that water was mostly cleaned by gravity?

I only ask because it’s been a pretty rough month for me financially. If you aren’t willing to pay me twenty dollars to tell a camera about things I don’t know, I understand. Do you have any friends who are into that sort of thing? I’m pretty flexible on price. Also, if anybody reading this is looking for some slightly used furniture at a good rate, hit me up. I would use the phrase “well loved” but it makes it sound like I had sex with my stuff. I did not do this.

1.) Yes.

2.) It’s a free country.

3.) I’m not doing this to encourage ignorance.

4.) No.

I’ll seriously pay $20 for an equivalent video, but to me that means an interviewer talking to a number of Obama supporters, with responses as ignorant or incoherent as the people waiting for Sarah Palin to sign their books. While I don’t believe all liberals are policy wonks, I do believe there are some fundamental differences in the reasons people get excited about politicians.

You can make the video yourself if you want, but all I had in mind was that somebody find and send me a link to a video that some College Republicans somewhere had already made. I hope nobody thought I was offering $20 to make a video… nobody’s time is worth that little.
