1. Ok Herman... before I look at it, answer one question...



Does he say "9/11" in it at all? ----

13. Pseudo-transcript
Edited on Thu Jan-03-08 02:28 AM by ColbertWatcher
The spot opens on an angry crowd of people punching their fists into the air then quickly changes to a different group of people marching and chanting down a street.

A male voice says:
"An enemy without borders..."

A new crowd of women waving their arms cuts to a man raises a burning flag amidst a different crowd of people as the male announcer continues:
"...hate without boundaries."

Our male announcer says,
"A people perverted, a religion betrayed."

As he speaks the image changes from another crowd hold up and shake intimidating rifles to a shot of a man before a set of microphones shouting to his listeners then to a blinding fire that fills the entire screen as people jump in front of it.

An image of a man covering his injured head runs across the screen cutting to the image of the burning hull of a large vehicle surrounded by figures scattering as male announcer continues:
"A nuclear power in chaos."

Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmedinejad speaks into a microphone on a podium, as male announcer says,
"Madmen..."

The images changes to another individual bearded man shouts with his arms raised,
"...bent on creating it."

An image of Benazir Bhutto delivering a speech cuts to an image of her walking with a child in almost matching white outfits as male announcer says,
"Leaders assasinated."

More fiery and smoking carnage as male announcer says,
"Democracy attacked"

just as an explosion engulfs a roundabout.

Male announcer says,
"and Osama bin Laden still making threats..."

The famous image of Osama bin Laden kneeling as he shoots a weapon, dissolves into a small round portion of the screen showing the wreckage of the World Trade Center, which quickly fades to black.

As the image fades back up, rows of unidentified males march in uniforms and masks dissolves into a matching image of a shouting child (not marching, but in a traditional green camouflage uniform) as male announcer says,
"In a world where the next crisis is a moment away..."

As the image of the child soldier fades to black, the name "RUDY GIULIANI" appears in white text above a thin red line.

The word "TESTED." Appears as male announcer says:
"America..."

The word "READY." Appears as male announcer says:
"...needs a leader..."

The word "NOW." Appears as male announcer says:
"...who's ready."

The disclaimer (Approved by Rudy Giuliani & paid for by The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Committee, Inc.) of who created the ad fades in at the bottom.

The text disappears, replaced by the candidate's face on the left-hand side of the screen, as a voice over of the candidate saying his name and that he approves of this message. The face does not correspond to the voice over and fades to black as the ad ends.

Please don't give this guy any more clicks.

16. Thank you.
That was a detailed description. You saved me the trouble and waiting time.

Sounds outrageous. I can't imagine getting votes with that.

But then, I had trouble imagining Giuliani getting elected in NYC, but he did.

...I did it because I don't support 9iu11iani and I figured there are few here who do.

Why give him and his campaign the impression anyone else does?

25. You forgot two key details
1. All of the people shown are brown-skinned
2. There is some identifiably Middle-Eastern music playing in the background throughout.

22. Yikes. Looks like we're doomed unless...
some arrogant self-righteous opportunist with absolutely NO BUSINESS being the leader of the free world steps up and delcares himself the new "decider". When the Rood's face popped up in the ad, I barfed in my mouth a little.

23. Hilarious
And I do believe I didn't actually here the phrase 9/11. Wasn't particularly necessary since his point was abundantly clear. Boy, talk about a one issue fella. And it's not even his issue, though he co-opted it. He was the one who made things so much harder during those first few days. I'd hate to see how much harder he will make it on the rest of us when the next one happens. Notice, I didn't say if. I ain't that naive.

BEGIN! Hey.. it worked for Bush.. why wouldn't he take a page (or chapter) out of the same play book?

Yes Rudy.. we know.. there are terrorists. You didn't really stop them from attacking your city on 09/11, didn't support the Police or Firemen after 09/11.. but you're ready to hop up and take charge of the whole country, eh? Fantastic! And good riddance!

36. Is that the Bhutto ad? I had posted it from TPM.....
and the best comment to the story was from someone who said:

"How can I vote for Rudy when I'm too busy hiding under my bed in fear"

(btw - can't get streaming videos at work)
