Tom Cruise and Hillary Clinton... More in Common than We Thought?
While I've already posted about Tom Cruise's now-infamous Scientology rant, I really couldn't let this new viral video slide. It's a mashup of Cruise's weird speech alongside Hillary Clinton's ‘emotional moment' in New Hampshire. It's not meant to be a shot at Hillary, at least I don't interpret it that way. You could just as easily make a video like this about any candidate (See?).
What appeals to me most about this is how much it reveals about the theatrics of politics, and how easily impassioned speech, taken out of context, can become totally hilarious. But I suppose you could watch it and see for yourself.
