RNC forced to remove West Virginia Ad

The NRSC has been forced to pull an ad from the airwaves and Internets featuring a few hicks at a local diner talking about the Senate race in West Virginia. That the people behind the ad shot the ad in a local diner in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is most shocking. I mean, not being able to find hicks in West Virginia is like not being able to find queer bashers in Texas.



Here’s a breakdown of the casting call:



In brief, it is a sad day in America when today's GOP can't even feign being disingenuous. So very, very tragic indeed.

Wardrobe:


- We are going for a ‘Hicky’ Blue Collar look. These characters are from West Virginia so think coal miner/trucker looks


- Each character should bring a several options and stay away from all black or all white or thin stripes (thicker stripes and plaid are good)


- Clothing Suggestions:


• Jeans


• Work boots


• Flannel shirt


• Denim shirt


• Dickie’s type jacket with t-shirt underneath


• Down filled vest


• John Deer hats (not brand new, preferably beat up)


• Trucker hats (not brand new, preferably beat up)


• No Thin Stripes


Obviously only them fancy east coast elites can afford dem fancy-schmancy thin stripes. Moreover, whenever I see someone don thin stripes I instantly think he has a phd in Proustian studies.  but the criterion (IE, flannel shirt and denim jeans) gives the impression that they are seeking out lesbians, no?
