[UTUSN]

While the NY Post and Page Six are wingnut sources, there is backhanded info in this bit. "Usual Suspects"---snarf.

USUAL SUSPECTS

POLITICAL popster Moby and Jonathan Soros - son of investment gazillionaire George Soros - are hooking up to embarrass President Bush. They're launching an Internet contest next month in which the public will be asked to create 30-second commercials attacking the Bush administration, to be judged by a panel of left-leaning celebs, including Jack Black, James Carville, Margaret Cho, Janeane Garofalo, Michael Moore, Michael Stipe, Gus Van Sant and Eddie Vedder. The winning entry will be aired on network TV during the week of Bush's State of the Union address in January. "We want to draw attention to the administration's failed policies," the chrome- domed musician tells us. Would-be propagandists can enter at moveon.org.

1. Let Carville

Run the show :)

Sit back, relax, grab a bag of popcorn, and prepare yourself for the action that is to follow.

Couldn't happen at a better time, hopefully it will bring out the lie of the 16 min.

4. Link for contest please?

I'm quite apt at dreaming up wacky ideas. I hope they don't expect people to PRODUCE a spot. I'd happily spend gray matter thinking up a script.

Edit: typo. Okay, not a typo. Wrong spelling.

5. Self-interest kick

I want this info! How am I going to get it if this article gets buried in page 18? :shrug:

6. The article said MoveOn was involved

so I went to www.moveon.org and on the front page is a pointer to www.bushin30seconds.org.

That should be what you're looking for.
