Jim Slattery Wants America To Be That Golden Shower On The Hill Again

Democratic Congressman Jim Slattery is running for a Kansan Senate seat this year. This is his latest campaign ad, "Hosed," and it is nuts:

(thanks for the tip, Max)

OH NO, THAT GIANT IS PEEING ON ALL OF THE PEOPLE. Oh, it's just gas? Because it looked like pee. It really looked like pee.

Jim Slattery promises that if he is elected to the United States Senate, giant businessmen will no longer be able to pee on everyone. Gas. Sorry. I meant giant businessmen will no longer be able to pour gas on everyone. Still ridiculous!

This video really needs a remix. It should skip the reveal of the pump at :17-:18 and should focus on the smiling children at :20-:21. It should have a great soundtrack and no voiceover. If nothing else, I require a .gif of those kids or the angry black man at :21-:22. GET TO IT, INTERNET!

Also, did this remind anyone else of the Gulliver's Travels miniseries with Ted Danson when he pees on the Lilliputian ladies? Anybody?
Also, that's my first Ted Danson reference of the day. But just the first.
