Attack Ad Generator
Make your own political attack ad
The Attack Ad Generator was launched before the 2008 U.S. Presidential Election and, for the first time, put the power of slanderous political advertising in the hands of the average citizen.
Assembling an ad is as simple as using refrigerator magnet poetry... Drag some words and hear them read by an ominous sounding narrator. Pick a striking background image, add some dubiously truthful text and you've got yourself an attack ad!
The Attack Ad Generator was built with Merb, Sequel and jQuery.
