It's 3 a.m. Which little girl do you want answering the big girl?
Some of you may be just recovering from the terror that struck deep into your heart upon seeing the recent Hillary Clinton TV ad about the 3 a.m. call to the White House maybe possibly who can tell concerning some awful crisis while your innocent little children sleep peacefully in their beds -- unless perhaps the wrong person, say a maid who doesn't speak English, picks up that White House phone.
Hillary looked really well-dressed to be answering the phone at 3 a.m. But those Clintons are known for late-night doings. Still, that ad was credited with helping her win the popular Democratic primary votes in Texas and Ohio because it raised latent questions about Barack Obama's experience in handling a national crisis, although he's got two little girls of his own.
We've previously mentioned here that ad sparked a series of spoofs, probably the highest credit something can earn in today's popular culture. And that Casey Knowles, the little girl in that stock footage filmed eight years ago for a railroad company, isn't so little anymore. Actually, she'll be old enough to vote this fall and plans to do so for someone named Barack Obama, if he makes it that far.
If we all make it that far.
And now to help him get that far, combining spoof with a sharp elbow jab, Casey's back. Right here. And she approves this message.

Talk about fighting back against identity theft. I did watch the ad and want to echo the sentiment, "Good for you Casey! Good for you!!"

Wether it be sleeping little girls, typical white grannys or
ranting men of the cloth ,senator Obama can sure turn them into fascinating actors in the democrat's circus What
substance and truly relevant material. Ralph Nader will
have a field day with this.

"I'm Casey Knowles and I approve THIS message. Not the other one."
And that just about sums it up, doesn't it?

She said she is not afraid? She should be somewhat afraid, the world is a dangerous place. She was a little kid during 9/11 so she has no comprehension of what is out there.
Not that we should be terrified of every person. But at least know what you are talking about.

LOL, Here we have Reconquista LA Times supporting an anti-American pretending to spread hope via more ethnic identity nonsense. Jajajajaja! What a joke.
