Fighting the War on Error

Another look: Freedom political vid


I haven't posted this one in a while, but it's worth another look, especially for those who might be considering voting for McCain, who in many ways would be Bush III. If/when you ever get that urge, take a look at this video, which was made by "Anonymous," according to the video. Whoever you are, Anonymous, you've got a talent.

Anyway, I always get inspired when I watch this. I hope Anonymous comes up with another version for the '08 election - same song, different images.

If any of you have some inspirational liberal videos you think are noteworthy, leave a comment, and if I like it, I'll post it. I'd like to make one of these, and if I ever find the time to learn Adobe Flash, I will. I own the software, but I haven't had the time to sit down and flat out learn it. Now that I think about it, that just shot to near the top of my "To Do" list this summer.

Worth another quick look - Freedom



It's been a while since I've posted this, so I thought I'd do it again. (I think the last time I put it up was the morning of election day last November.

With all that is going on and all the scandals that are rocking our nation's capitol these days, this video is still as apropos as ever. I still shake my head about Ned Lamont - I can't believe Joe Lieberman got reelected, especially considering his votes, behavior and remarks since beating Lamont last fall. Oh well, you can't win 'em all.

Enjoy it - I hope it motivates you a little bit to get a little more politically active if you aren't, or maybe even more if you already are. I strongly urge you to do something about all of the problems with our federal government. It's the primary reason I write on this blog, to try to affect even a *little* change.

To that end, I hope to be bringing you a lot more in the coming days. I've been hopelessly bogged down the last few evenings, and I won't get nearly as much up tonight as I'd like, but tomorrow evening is set aside for a great deal of writing. Much of it will be letter writing to members of Congress, and I will share the text of those letters on here, which you are free to use for your own letters that I hope you take a few minutes to write. That's why God (and Bill Gates) gave us copy/paste.
