3. if you have tivo trick play it
every year they do superbowl stats of what commercials were watched more than once, instant replayed, paused on. hopefully they'll pick up on the switch to cnn and the fact that i watched the ad three times and used the trick play features on it

6. Possible reason for the delay
At 8:10 the first half of the game was still going on. CNN played the Moveon ad during the first commercial break during half time. Maybe they were asked to do this?

7. oh c'mon!
like MoveOn can set the length of the damn GAME!

'half time' is not SET. it ain't MO's fault. (haven't you seen the ad yet? view it at the moveon site if you don't want to watch CNN.

8. Just saw the commercial with my 9 year old son...
we turned off the Superbowl just in time to see it. He said "Wow Mom, that was deep!" I frankly was impressed that he "got" it. Thank God... I think my boy's a Democrat!

isnt it sad that we are so excited about free speech? isnt it sad that we are all so desperate for the TRUTH that we FINALLY SEE a commercial telling the truth and we are so starved we could just about faint??? I mean MY GOD...we have been living under this dictator for over 3 years now..
WE ARE STARVING FOR THE TRUTH

12. Works on more than one level
The overt message is about how our kids will be stuck with bush's $1 trillion deficit, but it also shows what kind of jobs they'll be stuck with after all the decent ones are outsourced.

15. I managed to catch & tape it the 2nd time at 19:37 CST but I'm afraid it
probably didn't grab the attention it should have. They gave it the absolute minimum time with zero segue into or out. If people weren't specifically watching for it, they could have completely missed it. I hope I'm wrong...but it's so awfully short...I dunno...

19. Great Ad!
I remember seeing it on CNN alot during the state of the union.
But when I wanted to record I couldnt find it but thanks for the time I recorded it at :35. I think its a very powerful ad.
