After baseball size hail smashed up Matthews Manor, contractors scoured our neighborhood drumming up business. My poor wife, who was at home during maternity leave (and now because her employer doesn’t understand how FMLA works) has to fight off door-to-door roof salesmen–while dealing with a collicky newborn–that seem to multiply like cockroaches in the pizza box Chad uses for a pillow.
If only we could decide which company should get our insurance check, things would be so much easier! But, anyone we use has to proclaim they are a Christian in the most self-serving way possible. If they aren’t conservative or Oklahoman, we can’t use them. Plus, if choosing them to drive nails into my house will assist secular-socialism, it is a dealbreaker.
Having an owner who wears nut-hugger jeans and a loose tie, that brags about his quality of work as an afterthought to his political beliefs would get me on the phone instantly. Of course, finding a company like that is not easy in this state.
Thankfully, some advertising firm mixed up the focus group data they were using to produce spots for Republican candidates during primary season with the profile data for small, local businesses and pitched the spot above to a loony metro contractor. The results are hilarious.

I wonder if he takes that nasty secular socialist federal disaster relief money from the Alien Muslim President’s deficit accounts?
I guess he’s finally stopped pimping the fact that he played at OU.
I can’t say I really give a shit what his political beliefs are.
what did he play at ou? the trumpet, tuba, flute????? just curious…..
What.the.hell? I’m a christian conservative that has a healthy disdain for secular humanism and I stand for liberty and freedom, but not enough of one to mix it into a commercial for roofing and siding. That is whack!
So who did you go with?
Living in conservativeville, USA, (Enid) I get a healthy dose of the Glenn beck/rush limbaugh propaganda daily. Sadly, this advertising strategy actually works. I have a co-worker that was going to call ol terrill to do her siding because of his conservative values. This person also believes that obama is the Antichrist and that he will cut your head off for being a Christian. I would really like to walk outside some day and be able to pick up my paper and not be reminded that if I don’t believe exactly what the local baptist church believes, then I just booked a ticket to H-E double hockey sticks. I didn’t know there were so many st. Peters out there.
Eww..you can totally see his junk.
It’s his cup. He still hasn’t taken it off since his Sooner days. I hear it’s quite brittle and yellowed now…his junk not the cup.
Switzer recuited this guy. I wonder if he did roof work for Dean the Stream. Another point; Cristians selling nails to hammer planks of wood into my …. oh well, it sells somewhere. “Folks call Pontius Pilate Roofing! Yes, we’re evil and have questionable morals, but if you need anything nailed down… we’re good at what we do. BR-549
the sad thing is if your not a “true ” christian in his eyes….. he has the right to totally screw you on the price after the fact because you wershup da debull…..
Apparently, one part of his conservative christian ethic includes not paying his creditors. Check the public records for how many times he and his companies have been sued.
And accepting federal stimulus money, which they proudly announce on their website.
Maybe he’s wooing Bobbi Burbrige Lane.
Grendel…………things that make you want to go “ewwwwwwwwwwww!” But at least one might find a new source for oxycontin, a hypocritical attorney, and some sign language lessons ( I apologize for being harsh folks), and a questionable roofing job
Somebody forgot to tell him that when wearing a white (or light coloured) shirt, one must also wear an undershirt. He is so very, very pink-skinned.
I guess people forgot about when KWTV’s version of “in your corner” visited him, back in 2008. At that time, he indicated he was going out of business soon…

Isn’t that the same guy who forcibly tried to steal Amanda Taylor’s microphone after locking her inside his garage during an interview??
In all honesty, who doesn’t want to lock Amanda Taylor inside a garage? Preferably during a heat advisory.
Please if there is a God let some transgender/left-winged/dope smoking/gay pride parade marching roof business owner come out with a rebuttal commercial to this crap. I’m moving out of this state before the witch hunts, and lynchings start up.
…or, some creative skilled screenwriter should turn this into a smart comedy about how the remaining sane Okies cope with living in a town full of nut jobs like this guy. Nancy Miller take note, this kind of show would have been something the TLO boys and girls could appreciate.
I doubt he’ll care if a gay pride parade goes by. The point is – he’s not right wing, he’s self-serving. And in this market, that means right-wing. I’ve wasted the last 15 minutes of my day reading online reviews of this guy. By all accounts, he’s a bigot, produces a poor product, is sued frequently and defaults on the judgments, and assaults reporters.
The lemmings around here eat that shizz up. He may be discounting 40% but that’s only after a 200% markup.
I think he put a cucumber in there.
