1. My only criticism
would be the contrast where you've used brown text.

Otherwise :thumbsup:

3. I really wanted to use all this text:
BEN-VENISTE: Isn’t it a fact, Dr. Rice, that the August 6 PDB warned against possible attacks in this country? And I ask you whether you recall the title of that PDB?

RICE: I believe the title was, “Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States.”

Condoleezza Rice, who said on May 17th, 2002,
"I don't think anybody could have predicted that
these people would take an airplane and slam it
into the World Trade Center, that they would
try to use an airplane as a missile - a hijacked
airplane as a missile."

On the September 1 broadcast of ABC's Good Morning America,
President Bush acted as though the breach of the levees was an
unforeseeable fluke occurrence: "I don't think anyone anticipated
the breach of the levees."

Video from The Associated Press shows federal disaster officials
warning President Bush before Hurricane Katrina struck that the s
torm surge could breach New Orleans' levees. NBC's Lisa Myers reports.

7. It'd sure help with impact... alas.
I'd toss another in there - a reference to the studies done / concerns about the possibility of airplanes used as weapons that were conducted / aired before Rice told that particular howler.

13. You might also try to squeeze in Ma Barker's commentary
"<being bussed to Houston and living on the floor of the Astrodome> is really working well for some of these people"

9. We need to run that ad in every newspaper, every day, right through November.
And we should have TV ads that are the same, run every 15 minutes during the World Series.

12. Nice! You should submit it to Moveon's "Obama In 30 seconds"
contest. They do the artwork for you, and I think there is a cash prize

14. I'm not a talented filmmaker... and looking at their website, it's 30 seconds of positive for B.O. -
not a bash at McCain's lack of judgment on his birthday to be eating cake with President KillAgain. But thank you!

17. If the election is about Bush, its great, but I don't think people...
associate McCain that closely with Bush, other than on Iraq and taxes, which you don't even have in that picture.

19. I was thinking the same thing. It would be a lot better if perhaps it was slimmed down to
Bush reading while the twin towers burned
McCain and Bush sharing cake while NOLA drowns

20. part of generating a landslide in November will be making sure
that association sticks. McShame has completely co-opted *'s stances on economics, aggressive war, the environment, and unions. A McShame presidency would be a continuation of this disaster.
