15 anti-Bush TV ads

The 15 finalist anti-Bush ads are up. Grand Winner announced Jan 12 in NYC.

Roedy Green

That looks like good therapy for the bitter little minds that were driven over the edge by the failure of that Gore loser's attempt to rewrite election law after the fact.

Judging will be done by 100 specially selected Kindergarten classes and Michael Moore, making it 101.

'In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members...'

or quoted :

These ads are just prototypes for proof of concept. The actual one will be professionally polished.

Bush is going to have a challenge coming up with an ad. '2004 and we are still alive. Without Bush it never could have happened. They said he was too stupid to live, but he proved them wrong. He killed a million innocent people but he got Saddam who is shown here piloting the plane into the World Trade tower.

Hey, those are the finalists you're derogating. Imagine the quality of the run-of-the-mill efforts. Little 'roedy' probably entered a couple of dozen losers himself.

It will be really interesting to see if the survivors of the Democrats' melee will ever try selling themselves instead of making childish attempts to insult their opposition.

As of now, according to a whole shitload of Democrats, each and every one of their potential candidates is an incompetent, dangerous boob or something of the sort. It will be funny as hell when Kerry, for example, suddenly tries to convince the world that he thinks Dean, for example, is a viable candidate.

MoveOn.org braced for what they believed to be 300 to 400 entries. They received over 1500. Think about it. 1500 people with decent knowledge of multimedia software. They took the time, money and expense and swallowed it all simply to bash Shrub. They hate the son of a bitch.

Just think about it.

Whether one TV ad will make or break Bush is really not the issue.

What is the issue? Here are the clues:

1) Moveon was surpassed by their responses. They expected about 300 but received over 1000 ads.

2) If you sampled what came in, you could see some were professionally done but most were just average citizens, with a camera, who were simply insulted by what Bush has done to our democracy.

3) It's been said that the average American doesn't care about politics, but this just wasn't the case. The general 'vox populi' has successfully tuned into and highlighted Bush's evil.

4) The so-called 'main-stream' corporate 'press', despite their constant drum-beat that everything is OK under Bush, really can't fully control the message. The truth still can make it out into the light of day.

Actually, Mikey Moore IS one of the judges.

Here are the rest, and guess what? They're all poster children for the ANGRY LEFT.

'You can change the outcome of any election you want' -Bill Clinton

But no one will ever see them.

From today's NY Times, I found this interesting tidbit buried:

'Wes Boyd, a MoveOn.org founder, conceded that the advertisements were 'in poor taste,' and said he 'deeply regretted' that they had 'slipped through.'
