Get yer politickin' on

If you can't poke fun at your own politics, don't follow the links. I do mean to amuse, not offend.

In honour of the upcoming US presidential election, I thought I would post an oldie, but a goodie.
JibJab shot to fame several years ago as the debate between Kerry and Bush Jr heated up. They created a stop motion cartoon with K/B "bobblehead" characters talking smack to each-other. My friends and I got a kick out of this and much email forwarding/youtube linking occurred. Now, normally I wouldn't start a blog off with politics. Talk about alienating your audience! But what I like about this, is I don't believe they were taking sides. They focussed on the positives and negatives of both candidates - it was not about swaying votes to the right OR to the left. It was meant to unite and entertain all voters, regardless of their party lines.

What I did not realize until recently was that JibJab continues to produce political satire and has even spawned greeting cards, and a DIY section of the site where you can upload your own head onto a video. Who doesn't want their 15 minutes of fame, or presidential smacktalk? Sign me up - its free!

Here is the video which launched the company:

And here I am bringing some old school sexy back! I need to work on my face edging, and figure out if I can include my hair, but you get the idea.
