  Comedy (Broad, Politics), Docs & Non-Fiction (News, Politics), Music (Music Videos)
  [ 2:24 - from YouTube ]

  Possibly the coolest musical compaign ad in recent memory, this high-energy pitch for a Florida congressman -- sung by his son Scott Leigh, who also dances along with a bunch of other young folks -- may be "the most perfect pop song of the summer," according to Vanity Fair. view

  Comedy (Unintentionally Funny), Docs & Non-Fiction (News, Politics), Other Gems (Advertisements)
  [ 1:11 - from YouTube ]

  I don't know if this guy will win his election, but this may be the most awesome campaign ad ever. And, if the politics thing doesn't work out, we may have found the new Billy Mays (who was also a Republican, BTW)! view

  Mars

  Animation (Flash), Drama & Genre (Sci-Fi)
  [ 3:51 - from YouTube ]

  Very cool quasi-8 bit animation in this short that utilizes sci-fi to tell an environmental story. Great use of sound and best heard with headphones. Though the story appears to be about humans, it raises the question about how another intelligent civilization may one day view mankind as simply something in the way to exploiting natural resources. view

  Google Verizon attack Net Neutrality: That's Bull

  
  Comedy (Broad), Docs & Non-Fiction (Computers / Tech, News)
  [ 3:48 - from YouTube ]

  Not 100 percent sure how I feel about the whole "net neutrality" thing -- especially when I'm on a shared T1 cable-Internet line, and everyone around me seems determined to download the entire Beatles catalogue and HD versions of "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and all I want to do is read my email,  but it's taking fuhevah -- but Sam makes some good points. On the other hand, I ding him a point for kind of stealing the title from Penn & Teller's Showtime series (and for trying to actually make a voice call on an iPhone). view
