The plan involves persuading their most mentally-deficient followers to buy copies of the DVD for various liberals in what they describe as a <em>&#8220;sponsorship&#8221;<\/em> in the vein of those late-night television appeals for starving third-world children. From the Hating Breitbart web site:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;At Hating Breitbart, we believe liberalism is an illness that is best treated with a healthy diet of being exposed to different points of view. We\u2019re offering fans of our movie the chance to &#8220;sponsor&#8221; an intellectually malnourished member of the mainstream establishment by ordering a copy of the film to be sent to them to help overcome years of indoctrination by the liberal elite.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Pleasse forghive me. It is mush hard er to type whil laughing hystrically than I thoght. OK, let me try this again.<\/p>\n<p>The BreitBrats think that it&#8217;s a good idea to convince people to buy extra copies of their DVD (at 15 bucks a pop) for liberal politicians, journalists, entertainers, etc. The producers must be stuck with a warehouse of these paperweights and believe that their fans are dumb enough to bail them out by buying more. Of course, the intended recipients (i.e. Michael Moore, Rachel Maddow, Nancy Pelosi) are only going to deposit the DVDs in the trash.<\/p>\n<p>Since there is no chance whatsoever that they will waste their time watching this dreck, the only real purpose for this campaign is to separate the flock from more of their cash and to enrich the incompetent producers. Wouldn&#8217;t it just be easier to double the price and tell them the proceeds are going to Jesus? But a bigger problem is that these conservative Randians are abandoning the pretense that they actually believe in the primacy of the free market. The people have spoken with their wallets.
