TV Primetime

We've all seen those infomercials on TV. They're aired either on weekends or late at night when the rates are lowest for TV time. However, the rates for primetime 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM (7:00 PM to 10:00 PM Central time zone) are considerably greater, ranging from $35,000 to over $100,000 per 30 second spot.
Last night, Obama bought 30 minutes at the beginning of primetime (replacing some of your favorite shows) on 7 networks in this country including NBC & CBS (Al Jezzera aired his mis-infomercial for no charge). If we calculate the minimum cost of this arogant display we see that 30 seconds at $35,000 X 30 minutes equals $2.1 million and on 7 networks, that comes to over $14.7 million. How many hungry children could he have fed for that money ?
Unfortunately, the only viewers that watched his mis-infomercial were already committed to voting for him, so this project was in vain. The companies that show the TV ratings, showed that most viewers turned to other stations when the Obama mis-infomercial aired.
Where did this money come from ? The major doners toward this fiasco were "the Nation of Islam", a faction of Al Quada in Pakistan, Colonel Omar Quadaffi of Libya and others with interests in the demise of the United States of America.
If you had watched his mis-infomercial, you'd have seen a very slick production produced, written, directed and edited by some very talented people at a cost in excess of $50,000. The entire production was filled with lies, half truths and loaded with mis-information. I guess that Obama isn't satisfied with seeing himself as the messiah, but now needs to be a TV star.
How desperate are his handlers and those running his campaign that they would permit him to go to these lengths ? Having never been a fan of Obama, just based on his character (or lack of), I am now thoroughly disgusted with this elitist egomaniac that wants to "change" our Constitution. That's some of the "change" he talks about How anyone in good conscience can vote for this man is beyond rational thinking.
