Today’s comic relief

Courtesy of Thomas Peterffy, founder and CEO of Interactive Brokers, who’s spending millions to run a new political ad warning against socialism in the United States (and thus endorsing Mitt Romney). He intended it to run in swing states only, but I just saw it on CNN in New York, so he appears to misunderstand the concept of geotargeting as badly as he does socialism.

Anyway, here’s the spot. Watch it and weep, or laugh, or whatever it is you do when you see ridiculous things:
