What wide screen videos will there be at Rethugs Convention?
I thought the wide screen videos were extremely well done at the Democratic Convention tonight!

I was just trying to imagine what powerful images can we look forward to seeing at the Republican Convention?

Could they show ...

9 11 with Bush and the bull horn? Will he be standing with the firemen who are not getting funding now ?

Geraldo riding on the back of the embedded trucks and showing so much excitement about the air strikes?

The fireworks of the Shock and Awe that resulted in the deaths of innocent people?

Saddam's staged monument falling?

OBL in his now famous photo and some of those OBL videos walking we know not where. Will they paste OBL on the screen and do a new version of the 10 Most Wanted?

Will they highlight those prison videos that we were not able to see yet?

Photo copy of Chimps latest AWOL Houdini documents?

Phony turkey photo?

Mission NOT ACCOMPLISHED photo op on the ship?

What about Chimp and the Goat Story? That would be 7 minutes of silence.

For the life of me, nothing seems to fit!

1. Lots and lots of American flags, Iraq images (with us "winning" of course)
Heck, they might just borrow the Faux News backdrop.

2. Definitely Saddam statue falling
I doubt they will even mention bin Laden, (unless they conveniently catch him right before the convention) this is not one of Bush's successes.

I won't be watching tv that week myself, don't wanna hear or see anything having to do with the Repub convention. But I bet what another person posted today about the media doing a lovefest with Bush will happen.

8. Yeah... I can see it now...
The corporate media will be like "He was masterful when he said 'We can't have evil doers doing evil in the word with newclear wessels.... uh.... 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, be afraid... ducked tape the windows... terrorists are under your bed!... god bless america! (background photoshopped picture of GW. shaking hands with God)'... it was incredibly presidential"

It'll be total reality disconnect

:puke: :puke: :puke:

4. The most appropriate thing would be...
To show 1984.That's their goal after all.

6. A photo mantage of the Lynndie England's torture shots...
The pyramid of naked men, the guy getting bitten by the dog, that asshole giving the thumbs up with the corpse... You know, because we should be outraged by the outrage and all... :eyes:

13. I was quoting the big fat idiot.
You don't seriously think that i believe that what's going at Abu Ghraib and many other Iraqi prisons is harmless pranks do you?

11. The Alabama Ten Commandments idol/monument being removed.
Edited on Tue Jul-27-04 02:23 AM by countmyvote4real
It will rally their Judeo Christian base.


Plus, we'll see lots of footage that supports policies they don't:

babbling brooks
wildlife running free
salmon swimming upstream (even though it's polluted)
9/11 up the whazoo
lots and lots of "tarsts" (to keep the fear alive)
mushroom cloud
kittens (but no calicoes)

17. Damn! That's creepy
Probably close to what they have in store.

And they'll accuse the Democrats of being too negative.

16. LOL at the photos and ideas



It will be surreal to see the crap that they will bring to the table at their convention.

The good part is that they are running scared right now and we should keep them running. They are such bullies and so dangerous.
