1. Another:

[Demit]

3. In graphics, that is known as a "tombstone" layout.

Hahahahaha! Let's hope that augers for Republican Party prospects this November.

[mopinko]

14. tombstone meaning what, exactly?

just curious about the derivation of the word.

[Demit]

16. A group of same-size photos lined up in a grid that fills the page.

It's static & visually boring.

[mopinko]

20. thanks

i agree. i hate symmetry.

[vickitulsa]

27. May be visually boring but the impact of seeing so many pictures,

of dozens of indicted Repugs, is made in about 2.0 seconds, which means ya don't have to be bored long to get the point! And an excellent point it is....

I love them all! These are just great! :bounce:

[ProSense]

5. This one is perfect! n/t

2. Had enough??

4. Gee,...

...was Ken Lay buried at Arlington?!? We know Dear Leader doesn't want to soil his beautiful mind (because it's utterly blank?) by attending his soldier-victims' funerals. (And yes, I know that the "beautiful mind" line came from Babs.)

[whometense]

11. Yeah.

It must have been taken on Veterans Day or Memorial Day. Because we all know there's no way he's be caught there otherwise.

[jojo54]

6. This is the one that gets me.

I'm so sick and tired of giving them more money. It's bad enough that a lot of us live paycheck to paycheck and that asshat and his gang are living it up. But when my grandchildren come into this world owing the stinking government $30K, I want to barf all over B*sh.

[whometense]

7. That one's really good.

I like this one too.

[whometense]

8. Another:

[orwell]

9. It's the best slogan...

...the Dems can use. It nationalizes the local elections in a very simple straightforward manner. The images are powerful as well.

K & R'd

[whometense]

10. Agreed -

very powerful.

Now, an I remembering incorrectly, or was it NEWT who came up with this slogan???

[whometense]

12. By the way, if anyone has a brilliant idea

for another of these ads, Fubar is asking for suggestions.

You can email them to fubar at needlenose.com.

Keep those ideas coming folks. Post them as comments or send via email to my username at needlenose.com. We're going to need plenty more so we can put out a Flash version in time for the 2006 elections. We're looking for clear visual concepts with Had Enough as a punchline. Something everyone would 'get' immediately.

[rateyes]

24. How about this one?

Had enough?

[sandnsea]

25. Get them newspaper camera ready

An affordable size so that a few people can go together and publish them in local newspapers.

[DesertRat]

13. Very Powerful! n/t

[TrueFunkSoldier]

17. WOWOWOW!! Sent chills down my spine. Even better...

...DNC need to run campaign commercial ads featuring these posters, one by one, as many as they can fit within a 30-second ad. No sound. No voices. At the end, all it should say is "Had Enough?" in white letters, black background.

Another DNC ad: Use Lil' Dumbya's flip-flopping statements against him, along with Cheney's "last throws" comment and Rummy's "we know where the WMD's are; they're in and around Tikrit, north, south, east and west." (This should have been done in Election 2004, but why cry over split milk?) Anyway, at the end of the commercial ad, it should say, again, "Had Enough?"

These are powerful statements and best of all, they speak truth to power. I am hoping and prayer that the DNC will come up with something very powerful and compelling this time around rather than the sorry ones they did for 2004.

23. Great idea

How about billboards as well? :bounce:

[bcoylepa]

15. Can we buy these??

where can you buy a set?? Does anyone know? I tried the web page but didn't see it

we have been having monthly "HAD ENOUGH? discussion groups throughout Bradford County PA - these would be great to use

[whometense]

19. Best link I can find

is this one: http://www.needlenose.com/hadenough

I don't know if they're printing them.

Here's another beauty:

[Czolgosz]

18. K & R

[Chemical Bill]

21. I've had enough.

:kick: and R

[meganmonkey]

22. It would be a lot more powerful if

I had any faith that a Democratic controlled Congress would actually stop this war...

Call me a cynic, you'd be right :shrug:

[whometense]

26. At this point it's hard to fault anyone for cynicism,

but if we haven't got hope, we have nothing.

So I continue to hope...

[tomreedtoon]

28. No, I didn't see these. AND NEITHER WILL YOU.

Because the Democratic Party - still dominated by the DLC - won't run them. These were obvioulsy created by someone suffering under the delusion that the Democrats really want to win an election.

Not even a Democratic candidate, operating on his or her own, would try to run such a campaign. And yes, I'm talking about the one who is still spamming your mailbox with e-mail, trying to convince us that he really supports progressive issues. You can probably find him in this picture below:


"We'll never have enough of our wonderful friend Dubya!"
