Video: Attack ad of the day
posted at 6:00 pm on December 18, 2007 by Allahpundit
This punk’s been flip-flopping on pure reason for years and the media’s just been letting him skate. It’s high time he got called on it. Hey, Immanuel — special delivery from Fritz.
Nietzsche had better start distancing himself from Wagner before the election, though, or I’m going third party.

Yeah he’s a real pissant!

Yeah! What he said!

Can you dumb this down for us single issue voters?
TexasDan on December 18, 2007 at 6:04 PM
LOL!
You really should have been an academic you know.

To which Carolyn Washburn says: “Metaphysics, Ethics, and Aesthetics are off the table today. Instead, we’re going to discuss your position on Mr. Nietzsche’s mustache.”

But where does he stand on the border question…
and not the border between the intellect and reality…

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Rode Werk on December 18, 2007 at 6:15 PM
I thought this was pretty clever. It even made cable news the other day.
Spirit of 1776 on December 18, 2007 at 6:16 PM
With Nietzsche on the offensive against Kant, there’s a good chance that Descartes could pull ahead in the polls…
I mean, opposing Descartes borders on the irrational.
ScottMcC on December 18, 2007 at 6:16 PM
This is all quite absurd, although I’m still voting for Nietzsche.
Sincerely,
Albert Camus

I just knew Nietzsche would be the first to go negative.
I’m starting to think he actually believes that “Homer’s Contest” nonsense.

oh for the ‘good old days’

Sure. How do you feel about voting for a guy that believed that man is incapable of knowing anything?

Kant’s Aunt Inomie needs to kick him in the monads.

Vice a Democrat who prooves that theorem?

I can categorically say that attack ads of this nature violate a maxim that we must always be honest and forthcoming in our criticisms of others. The alternative would be hateful attacks which cause distrust, thereby ultimately causing societal meltdown.
Also, Nietzche is gay.
/Kantian response.

Nooooo! That song is like, um, something sticky that gets stuck in my brain and won’t go away. Thanks a lot, mram.
Heidigger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar,

Kant’s categorical imperative beats the tar out of Nietsche’s niilism any day.
This is what Nietzche believes in:
*blank screen*
Nietzche. Nothing important to say.
I’m Immanuel Kant and I categorically approve of this message.

Stepping into the fray, the MSM questioner asks what color underwear the antagonists are wearing…

Nietsche: the original “stache”. Accept no imposters.
Jaibones on December 18, 2007 at 7:20 PM
John Bolton’s Stache beats the crap out of Nietzsche’s Stasche.
This message paid for by John Bolton’s Mustache for president. John Bolton’s Stache: “I kick your butt!”
BKennedy on December 18, 2007 at 7:23 PM
That was the most excellent video I’ve seen this year. Hell, it was the most excellent video I’ve seen in my life! This is why I read HotAir! Thank you, AP!
thuja on December 18, 2007 at 7:30 PM
I can’t all believe the Kant bashers on this blog. Just because a the guy had a little drinking problem, you are willing to vote for a madman who confessed to murdering God. Have you no shame?
ronsfi on December 18, 2007 at 7:44 PM
Nix Nietzche!
Nix Nietsche too!
And Nix Nietzsche all the same!
Who can?
Kant Can!
Kant Can do!
You can’t afford to to let Kant loose…
Vote Kant!
He can’t loose.
Paid for by committee to elect Kant
I’m Immanuel Kant, and I approved this message.

Nietzsche? Naw I’ll take the fembot Lexa Doig (Rommie).

David Hume could outconsume
Schopenhauer and Hegel!
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel!

Whenever I hear Kant, why do I think Hillary?
Hening on December 18, 2007 at 9:25 PM
I’m voting for whichever philosopher has a floating cross in his Christmas message.
Kierkegaard perhaps?

Nietzche is wrong for America, but his disciple Adolph was (believed to be)right for Germany.
jgapinoy on December 18, 2007 at 11:31 PM
(There is NO rule 6!)
There’s nothing Nietzche couldn’t teach ye
‘Bout the raising of the wrist…
Socrates himself was permanently pissed.
John Stuart Mill of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle Aristotle was a begger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart
“I drink therefore I am.”
Yes Socrates himself is particularly missed.
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he’s pissed.

Nietzsche drove a red truck and funneled money to his son accounts. Plus he lobbied for terrorists (Hitler admired him). If he hadn’t entered so late in the race he may have had a chance, but his slow entry proved he didn’t really care. Nietzsche is a scumbag.
