an idea for anyone to use in the Bush in 30 sec contest...

[Salviati]

I had a great idea (in my opinion) for the Bush in 30 seconds contest by MoveOn, but have neither the time nor experiance to actually make it, so if anybody else wants to use it go ahead, or if you're in the same situation, share your ideas here...

Begining:

"This is your country:"

followed by pictures of great national triumphs, patriotic images, happy americans, hard at work, that sort of thing...

"This is your country on Bush:"

Graphs showing the economy tanking, unemployment rising, pictures of the homeless sleeping outside the whitehouse, pictures of war and chaos, etc... If you're feeling real gutsy, pictures of the twin towers.

"Any questions?"

1. Great idea!

I've been wanting to do something for that contest, and my original idea of "Name That President" fell through because I couldn't get a greenscreen studio in time. I did another one with the USS Lincoln landing and the Mission Accomplished banner superimposed with military funeral imagery and Taps playing, but I wasn't very crazy about it. I think I'd like to try putting your idea together and seeing how it plays.

3. About your sig not working ...

I think if you replace the HTML tag delimiter ">" and "<" to square brackets it should work.

4. Thanks, but...

That didn't seem to work. I'm going to try something else.
