Yahoo! reported on the ad made by Generation Opportunity. Of course, Yahoo! threw in a mention of the Koch brothers and some snide remarks aimed at Republicans. However, the ad itself is a uniter: Most are not fans.
Rob Zombie just asked Generation Opportunity to tone it down a little, their new ad is freaking him out: http://t.co/4o9txMOFBN

Someone tell Generation Opportunity they aren't helping. Matter of fact, they look pretty damn stupid. http://t.co/5ZkpM6dVbn

An anti-Obamacare advert so outrageous, it almost feels like it was made by the other side — http://t.co/LWuRzAj9BP

@TheRickWilson Terrible ad. The girl is way too hot. Plays like cheap horror. @Chris_Moody

Heh. Oh, Twitter.
But …
Pretty masterful trolling, though. Hats off, Generation Opportunity.

@jimgeraghty This will work, though. Jon Stewart will cover it. The Soup will cover it. People will ask questions.

So there’s that? And is it creepier than Lena Dunhams ‘First Time” video likening voting for Obama to losing one’s virginity?
@DubbleDhee @jimgeraghty @Tami_KS @SpeakWithAuthor Calm down it's creepy but not worth the pearl clutching.

It’s funny because it’s true. That horror affects us all. The execution may not be pleasant, but perhaps that is the point of the invasive Creepy Uncle Sam?
