According to a few million pissed off people, I spoiled the election for Barack Obama and didn’t “Barack The Vote”.
Watch the video below…

About the author
Jason, you say your not backing Obama, but that’s not the message of the video. You have a strong call to action at the end of the vid to vote for Obama…And I am further distressed by the “MoveOn.Org” endorsement you put at the end.
Damn, for someone who isn’t voting for the man, I can’t think of a stronger way to campaign for the guy. Humor slips under the radar of many, but you’re backing the man, none the less.
At least have the strength of your convictions and admit you want this guy in the White House.
As for not caring if more money is taken from you to help those in need, I like to do my own donating. I don’t need the government doing it for me, as they see fit (or misfit). They screw up anything that has to do with money. You watch, people will stop donating because the government is supposedly doing it for them. (and they will need what they’ve got left just to live on).
You are free to support whomever you want. Your free to make videos to support your man. But, at least be honest in your support. To deny the blatant intent/message of the vid is cowardly. I had thought better of you.

Ted – Give J-Mo the benefit of the doubt, he’s one of the good guys you can trust.
Daniel – High-five brutha, Obama 08!
Thanks for staying home on Tuesday, Jason.
You really will be doing this country and your fellow American’s a great service by not going to the polls.
For all of you guys who don’t get it, this is a viral video campaign produced by moveon.org. Anyone can stick there name in and the video is produced, just like the viral “for President” video of a couple months ago. This isn’t something JMo produced. I sent one myself and was amazed when the responses came back as if I had actually made it myself. Easy to trick the populace isn’t it?
Love the avatar Bert!
I’m voting for Stephen Colbert by the way everyone.
Thanks J-Mo, got some great face-on photos of Llamas in Peru this summer.
Save the goats! Vote!
I won’t vote … see I just can’t, here from that little Switzerland I’m privileged to be able to enjoy!
So thanks for this J-Mo!
See, because I have a dream!
… that on wednesday morning when I wake up on this side of the pond, a great feeling of relief fills me as I know that you guys hade the courage to opt in for Change and that now my 3 girls can hope again to have a better chance to enjoy a more secure and healthier planet,
… that these other 3 chicks will make it to the White House because they stand for being proud of what you believe in and say it with style http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/have-obama-invite-the-dixie-chicks-to-the-whte-house
… that the country that let me share its energy and potential and spirit and love some 28 years ago as an exchange student stops making me sad or even scaring the shit out of me with attitudes of “I want it all and I want it now!” that sure will suck the last hope out our dying Big Blue Ball
… that we marketers from all over realize that our Mass Control skill and power could and should be used for much more that just to shove more and more $$$ or “stuff” into our pockets or down our throats.
Please America, become more of Dreamland again and do wnat it takes not to let again happen the tragedy that happened some 8 years ago … , for all of our children, for our globalized future, for yourself.
I have a dream … that’s all I can have, but I’ll for sure hang on to it.
Vote Obama… you know you want to pay 30% CG tax…
People, don’t you realize that video was a joke, and Jason didn’t make it? It was put together by someone in the Obama campaign, and you can add your name and send it out yourself. Just a bit of leverage in that intense campaign. 🙂

gotta laugh at that.
Haven’t laughed that hard at a video for a while, good stuff.
You Mother Moffat…
I really thought you were a cool guy until this came along. If you would have voted then McCain would have won by two votes?

I was wondering why you haven’t gotten rid of the nofollow on your blog? Don’t you love us?
We could all use a little Moffat Link Love.
