Takebackthemedia's classic Flash "VOTEREVOLUTION" - We Predicted THIS
Takebackthemedia.com KNEW this was coming - this is the flash attack ad I did during the ripoff election of the GROPER in California --

It's NO coincidence that Wally O'Dell promised to DELIVER the election and Ohio to Bush..

We have a team in Florida and someone crunching numbers in Ohio for our Film "Electile Dysfunction" featuring Janeane Garofalo, Larry Flynt, David Dill, Avi Ruben, Will Pitt and tons of Greg Palast that we will be offering very soon..

Believe it or not, there's more in our film than just Electronic Voting, we get at the root of your right to vote, with a call to action that will include a Constitutional Amendment..

Watch for the Press Release --

Meanwhile, here's the oldie but goodie flash "VOTEREVOLUTION" --

GET MAD, and GET TO WORK, we are!

1. Is this amendment vote going to be counted on a crooked machine?

9. Probably
but what if, and this is sheer fantasy now, I would never DREAM of doing anything violent or illegal or promote the same -

- a MILLION or more people surrounded the white house, capital, etc and DEMANDED this..

Like they always say, "Let's take this to the people.."

3. Why Larry Flynt?
I do not want a pornographer as a spokesperson. Can't we find someone else who is a scholar of the 1st amendment that hasn't degraded the image of half the us population?

5. Your Choice
Are you saying he doesn't deserve to have free speech? In my opinion he's one of the most honest people I've ever met..

remember, THIS Is the guy that showed blown up people and said that WAR IS PORNOGRAPHY.

He also destroyed the hypocrites during the Clinton "hanging"..

He has PLENTY of credibility.

But it's a free country, throw the baby out with the bathwater if you want.

11. you just lost any support I would give
with the statement that Larry Flynt is one of the most honest people you've ever met. He's a worthless human being who has made his fortunes off the dehumanization of women. Fuck that shit. Don't try to wrap it in "free speech" He's a fucking puke, plain and simple to me.

12. You might try to be a little more
diplomatic here - I noticed you have barely any posts. Some people might think you are a freeper and not listen to you..

Are you against Free Speech completely or just when it suits you?

13. Oh, and one more thing
those women were just as free to NOT take his money or take their clothes off.

Just as he was free to publish what THEY sold to him.

I don't condone it, and I don't like pornography, but I call a spade a spade when I see it.

ANd the beauty of it is, you don't have to agree at all.

and all those other folks we've interviewed have No veracity because You don't like HIM.

15. he can't do anything to women that they don't allow him to do.
if you think those women have been degraded, then they allowed it to happen to themselves. Larry may have provided the venue but I'm willing to put money on the fact that they all did whatever you deem degradinging, willingly.

7. Might be time to do the radio scene again
and I thank you for mentioning it.. we had a lot of fun doing it, but between the film we've been working on (travelling for months) and the state of Alabama crucifying me (for what I think are political reasons) in their family court system + the fact that we are having a baby on CHRISTMAS all added up to too much on the plate to deal with..

but I am SO PLEASED to hear you say that my friend..

now if I can just find that power cord for the microphone :)

8. If I had seen this before 11/2...
It would have been on my laptop and playing for incoming voters who were headed to Dallas County Precinct #4419.

At least I had Bushflash animations to use which were pretty good themselves.

10. Thanks
not to toot our horn but we were around a long time before Bushflash.. as a matter of fact if you look at some of his animations made after mine some of them are very nearly an exact duplicate..

that's one of the reasons we didn't host him when he started out, his animations were too much like ours and some of them we'd already made those cases..

He has some other really good work, I'll grant you that, and we were both in NYC at the Bush in 30 seconds MoveOn contest as two of the 14 finalists out of 1600, so we're doing pretty good..

maybe great minds think alike :)
