Seriously - the ad.
In recent years, the availability of cheap digital video equipment and digital editing software (especially for Mac computers) has meant that the cost of producing video has dropped dramatically. Earlier this spring, we saw the biggest impact when MoveOn ran their Bush in 30 Seconds campaign.
Today's email brings lots of links to this incredible anti-Bush spot, entitled "Seriously". (Warning, it's about a 5 mb download.)
Update: Turns out it was one of the Bush in 30 Seconds spots - but for some reason it wasn't until today that it started getting lots of inbox traffic. Go figure. Of course, MoveOn didn't even list among their favorite Top 150 spots.
Update, 6/10: I've updated the link above - looks like the old site took it down: too much traffic from readers of P&T (!)

Oooh, yeah, baby. Seriously. The punch at the end really makes this commercial sing! Thanks for pointing us to it.

That was about the funniest thing I've ever seen. I laughed out loud. Too bad it's true. Where do I sign up to donate money to get this spot on the air?

This is by far the best thing I've seen. It makes total sense and it's hilarious. Do you think we could get this on HBO and not bleep her words? Fabulous! Thank you, thank you.
