VIDEO: What Happened To The Old Democratic Party? What's The Deal With Today's Crazies?
I created this video a few days ago but hadn't gotten around to posting it until now. I was playing around with Windows Movie Maker (my second attempt) and came up with what I believe is a hilarious little movie.
Watch it all the way through (only about two and a half minutes long.) There are at least a couple surprises in there that I guarantee will at least make you smirk... I think probably even if you're a lefty.
What did ya think? Feel free to leave me comments on this, although I suspect I'll get a lot of "you should have included ______". I have thought of others I could have included, and if I get a suggestion I really like, I may add them. But I'm pretty pleased with it for now, especially for only being my second project with Windows Movie Maker.
UPDATE: Special thanks to Ian at Expose The Left for sending some traffic my way on this one. If you got here another way, and aren't familiar, be sure to make his site a daily read/watch (best video blogger around.)

Hello,
Very nice video. I enjoyed it much. I believe the only thing I would change is eliminate Joe Lieberman's picture. He is about the only voice of reason left in the Demoncratic party. Granted he is liberal and wrong on many issues but at least he is not a crazy.

Hey Brian,
Thanks. But I have to make one point about the Lieberman thing... I was afraid people might not quite get what I was doing there. You're right, he's not crazy like the rest, and he's got the balls to stand behind the war because he voted for it and we all believed the WMDs were there (I am still of the group that believes they were moved to/through Syria, bu that's for another post)
Anyway, my point is that I totally agree about Lieberman. He's a respectable dude... but I think you missed (and I'm afraid others are missing) is that I was subtly trying to convey that message. Notice I skip to a quite part of the song "O Fortuna" when his picture is flashed, and he's not in a darkened red version of the image like I did with all the rest?
Again, I was afraid people might not quite get what I was doing there. I was going to put some other music in when he showed up, but I didn't want it to be too positive... I mean he is still a Democrat after all. I wish he'd just drop the D and become a liberal Republican to distance himself from those nuts.
Anyway, just thought folks deserved an explanation of the Lieberman part.
