Obama Girl Backs Ack

Believe it or not, Amber Lee Ettinger’s career as Obama Girl was just preparation for a political endorsement that manages to be even more surreal. (Yes, it even outdoes her Giuliani dance-off.)

America’s favourite lobbyist now throws her bikini-clad weight — and lip-syncing skillz — behind President Howard Ackerman of Red Alert 3. Love that “Let’s screw ’em all with Ackerman” tee she’s rockin’. And that intro — it’s so vintage Dick in a Box!

Isn’t it awesome when an agency — in this case, DraftFCB — contaminates a good thing with a flinch-inducer? Whatev, this is officially The World We Live In. Expect to see “Back Ack” splashed across YouTube, RedAlert3.com and the Barely Political website.
