Help! I missed the press conference!
I need to find somewhere to download it from - the video that is. Everywhere I go that has it it's a click and watch deal. This doesn't work for me since I'm on dial-up. The video jerks and freezes, and the audio jumps and skips.

Anybody know where I can go to download it? I wanna see the shrub talking to his tie, and all of those other fun things that I missed!

1. I Have Cable Modem....
..and both C-Span and Whitehouse.gov have pages that will not display.

I think Karl and Karen Deep Sixed that piece of garbage.

2. I was looking at 2 AM...
C-Span, CNN, and several other sites had the video, and had I had a good connection, it would have been fine. I just need to be able to download it, then I'll be able to watch it.

3. Did you try right-clicking on the link?
Then choose "Save Target As", and save it to a location on your hard drive.

Sometimes it works.

4. I'm using Firefox, and I'm not getting that option
I don't know if it's because I refuse to use IE, or if they just don't have the links set up that way.

5. Can't Do It
I believe they have the files protected. I haven't been able to get one from C-Span for a very long time but I haven't had much problem listening to just audio from there. Video sucks, plain and simple.
