I don't mean to be so damn YouTube happy today, but thanks to The Young Turks, I discovered yet another gem this afternoon.

Behold! A Message to Ralph Nader by I'm Some Dude You've Never Heard Of, a political spoof of the Message to Scientology video. The latter viral video after the jump.

My favorite part of the Nader vid: "You have a lot to be proud of, but regarding the campaign, here are your laurels. Why don't you lie down on them? And take a g-damn nap for once."

But what do I know? Who am I to find humor in this anti-Nader campaign video. A spoof of a spoof on Scientology. After all, I'm not a Scientologist. I wouldn't know what to do if I drove past a car accident. I wouldn't know how to help.

Welp. Considering, my spouse and I did get into a fender-bender this week and are currently dealing with a lying douche bag who wants to get a new car out of the deal ... perhaps Tom Cruise and his crew are right.

Lessons of the week: Do not lift one finger to vote for Nader in 08. And become a Scientologist in case you and yours have to deal with the logistical nightmare that is a car accident.

Cheers, hope you all had a better week than I did.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
