“I’m Owen Lars and I approve of this message.”
Ya know, there was a push for a while by some of the extended universe authors to make Owen and Obi Wan brothers
Dam Straight! I’m gobsmacked…
Geez, that’s quite a full and batshit crazy dance-card he’s got there.
Ok. That made me chuckle.
If he’s still re-elected, I’ll want to up-chuckle.
Wow, imagine that casting call. Yeah, sure, I’d be glad to stick a needle in my nephew’s eye. Cuz yeah, he’s a fuckin’ asshole.
Man, this is some brother-on-brother civil war shit! Brutal.
In the words of Rick James:
And effective as fuck.
When even your own fam won’t stan for you, that really says something.
God damn, we need to take this guy to the burn unit after that sick burn
With a family like that who needs a family.
Btw Where are Robert, Elizabeth and Fred?
I eagerly await the news feeds that glorify “the sick burn” over his stances. /s
I love how clever it is, and I think it will attract much attention to his campaign, but it will also have it’s message twisted by the deflection machine. Much like BlackLivesMatter, Kaepernick, twittery Trump, etc.
Except unlike his movies you didn’t see it coming from the very beginning!
It’s going to be a lot harder to do in this case. Family is a pretty strong thing to try to twist/deflect. If it were just one relative, they’d attack that relative, but they have a handful here. They’ll probably just ignore this and talk about how we have to build the wall.
Not much “if” about it, I’m afraid; FiveThirtyEight’s forecast currently projects a 99.9% chance of Gosar winning his reelection race.
Did you happen to catch that Who Is America segment where Sacha Baron Cohen went to Kingman? Yeah. Those were Gosar’s constituents.
The current ad is mild compared to the letter 7 of his siblings sent to the Daily Miner (AZ newspaper) last year. Paul had claimed the violence at the “Unite the Right” rally was a liberal false flag operation, and may’ve been funded by George Soros. It starts:
We watched the interview of Paul Gosar on Vice News and believe Paul owes George Soros a personal apology.
This is a matter of right and wrong, not politics. We are aghast that Paul has sunk so low that he now spews the most despicable slander against an 87-year-old man without a shred of proof, and then doesn’t even have the guts or decency to apologize?

It’s not the only such ad, either (though without the twist):
