Welcome Parker Spitzer Viewers! And Everyone Who Loves Historic Attack Ads!
Last night, Reason's recent viral smash hit, "Attack Ads, Circa 1800," was featured on CNN's Parker Spitzer. Click above to watch the segment. Here's a link to the original page for the video, including a link to our historical sources.
If you're new to Reason.com, Reason magazine, or Reason.tv, here's a quick intro to who we are and what we're about:
Reason magazine has been around since 1968, Reason.com since 1994, and Reason.tv since 2007. We're published by the nonprofit Reason Foundation, which also runs a policy think tank and is based in Los Angeles (though we have offices in Washington, D.C. and staffers scattered around the country in so many spider holes). As an unapologetically libertarian site, we champion "Free Minds and Free Markets."
We believe you should have the freedom and choice to think what you want, say what you want, live where you want, eat what you want, smoke what you want, and marry whom you want. We're for open borders in goods and people, less government in the bedroom and the boardroom, legalization of drugs and consenting acts between adults. We are fiercely independent and a refreshing alternative to the stale left-right, liberal-conservative bickering and battles. We champion a world in which individuals and the groups they form voluntarily are as free as possible to conduct "experiments in living" to the greatest degree possible.

Well done!
That makes a twofer, then. O'Reilly played several seconds of your Stewart rally interview vid last night, but conspicuously failed to give attribution, merely labeling it "Internet Video."
That's OK. He's frequently referred to around here as "retard".
O'Reilly is probably holding a grudge since Sullum kicked his ass in that drug-war debate. But apparently he isn't above using Reason's video when it serves his interests. Pinhead or patriot? Heh heh.
All I know is, Sullum better stay away from his family. Now I'll give you the last word. Oh, but let me cut your mic first.
I'm pretty sure before the show O'Reilly saw Sullum smoke a fat one then try to run down Bill's kids with his car.
Now we get to find out if CNN viewers are as dumb as the MSNBC morons we've been getting recently. Hooray!
Hint to newbies: we are not Republicans, and we sure as fuck aren't Democrats.
I don't get it. I always thought libertarians were conservatives that smoke pot, don't believe in God, and fuck sheep.
Then, the other day, a friend told me that libertarians are liberals that understand economics, smoke cigarettes and eat trans fat.
I'm so confused.
They are all of the above.
Speak for yourself on the sheep, pal. I like girls.
And they like ewe.
*snort*
HURR DURR!
One morning while on safari, I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I'll never know.
Damn, I spelled my name wrong.
Everytime I see Spitzer's mug on TV I end up feeling....dirty.
I just want to yell "YOU RAIL HOOKERS YOU HYPOCRITICAL ASSHAT" every time.
Me too...I can't seem to picture him doing anything but fucking whores in his socks. It's like when your mom tells you not to scratch your chicken pox, and then all you can think about is scratching your chicken pox.
The Mouse claims another victim! Disney teen overactor and "singer" Demi Lovato quits Jonas Brothers tour! American tweens in shock!

A pleasant diplomatic post by The Jacket. Nice job Reason.
His attempts at diplomacy will be immediately undermined.
If you get even a tenth of CNN viewers to check out Reason and its message, you've increased your readership by 1/5ths of a person.
DO THE MATH!
We can't go counting 5ths of people, Fist. That looks bad.
Dammit. I should have thought of that.
Racist?
There are viewers of Parker Spitzer?
I've watched once, when The Jacket was on.
Did you watch the broadcast or the embedded video posted here at H&R. Because only one of those things brings the ad revenue that keeps Spitzer in hookers. Literally.
The embedded vid, of course.
Everybody know libertarians like to shoot guns randomly into crowds while drinking homebrew and eating deep fried goose liver (wrapped in bacon) on a stick.
I got the gun covered but can you drop that deep fried goose liver recipe on me?
No shit! And tell me which homebrew to pair it with. Brew snobbery is a hallmark of paleo Libertarians ...or something.
If you like cougars, and who doesn't, you really have to like Parker.
Cougars are only interested in "Cubs".
Sorry, dude.
That is a myth.
I thought she was a PUMA.
I know she is a MILF.
Sorry.
She is 58. I am sure the makeup does wonders hiding her age. But I would gladly hit it. There are not too many women over 50 you can say that about.
No, she has a FUPA, dipshit.
Check out her pic on the jewish world review site:

Pretty sure Reagan was president when this was taken. Still, she's better than Silda, right Spitz?
Parker is 58???
Wow, well preserved. I don't care much for blondes, but i'd give her some unregulated boinking
I think she is a blond out of a bottle. I seriously doubt the rug matches the drapes.
Just don't mention Sarah Palin. The fun would end very quickly after that.
The Palin corollary to Godwin's Law?
IDOIT SPITZER,
WAS WATCHING YOUR SHOW,
MAYBE YOU COULD TRY YOUR LUCK AT BEING A PIMP FOR BARNEY FRANK BOYFRIENDS.
BECAUSE YOU ARE SURE AS HELL ARE NOT WORTH A DAMN AT BEING A NEW COMMENTOR.
YOU AND DUMB ASS KEITH OVARYMAN, DUMASS MR. ED AND THEN THE QUEEN OF CLOSETS RICHARD MADDOW.
