1. Everything MoveOn does is brilliant. They have become...
a "Powerhouse of Pro-American Populism"!

4. It was so good
Cheney walks up to the Capitol building. He yanks the building out of the ground and uses it as a stamp. He stamps 'Corporate Judge' on a few pieces of paper with names on them. Then he's shown with a crown (which is just priceless). The slogan is 'No more Corporate Judges!'

“Rubber Stamp” Script:
TV :30

VIDEO

OPEN ON THE U.S. Capitol.

AUDIO

ANNOUNCER (VO): For 200 years, the U.S. Senate has had the same confirmation process for judges

VIDEO

A GIANT HAND WITH A WOODEN HANDLE THAT YOU’D SEE ON A RUBBER STAMP COMES DOWN ON TOP OF THE DOME OF THE CAPITOL.

AUDIO

ANNOUNCER (VO): Now Dick Cheney is threatening to do something no

Vice-President has had the arrogance to do: ignore tradition and overturn the rules …

VIDEO

AS THE HAND PULLS UP, IT TEARS OFF THE TOP PART OF THE BUILDING, THE DOME, CREATING THE ILLUSION OF A GIGANTIC RUBBER STAMP.

AUDIO

ANNOUNCER (VO): ): …turning the senate into a rubber stamp for corporate judges.

VIDEO

WE SEE THE WORD “CONFIRMED” STAMPED ONTO A SERIES OF WHAT WOULD BE GIGANTIC PIECES OF PAPER LINED UP IN A ROW ACROSS A LONG LAWN, EACH WITH A NAME OF A JUDGE, EACH BEING RUBBER STAMPED “CONFIRMED”.

AUDIO

ANNOUNCER (VO): These judges are biased in favor of big business and against people like you.

VIDEO

CUT TO MEAN LOOKING PHOTO OF DICK CHENEY WITH A CROWN ON HIS HEAD AND WITH THE WORD “NO!” STAMPED OVER HIS FOREHEAD. THEN DISSOLVE AWAY TO TITLES AND SUPER “PAID FOR BY MOVEON PAC, www.moveonpac.org. Not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee. Moveon PAC is responsible for the content of the ad ”.

AUDIO

Just who made Dick Cheney “king?” MoveOn PAC is responsible for the content of this advertisement.

7. Finally, a return volley
Edited on Tue Mar-22-05 09:05 AM by SpiralHawk
in the class war that the Republicans started 20 or 25 years ago, and that they have been waging relentlessly, demonically. The Dems have been patsies for sooooo long.

Time to stand and deliver.
