“Win a chance for your own personal bailout”
Great anti-bailout website: Do The Right Thing.
They’re running a contest:
$28,130 could be yours
You are probably as upset about the bailouts as we are. Well, Washington isn’t listening, so let’s turn up the volume. Come up with an idea, grab a camera, and send us your best 30-second video opposing government bailouts.
Be creative. Make us laugh. Teach us. Above all, make us oppose the bailouts. We will begin accepting submissions on February 23rd. The person or team that submits the “best video” will win $28,130 – one person’s personal bailout burden.
Check back for submissions requirements, rules, regulations, and full details on Thursday, February 12th.

Great!! If there’s one thing the Left cannot stand, it is ridicule.
b-cat: The basis for good humor is often truth!
They can’t stand that either!
Great! First I need the Bailout money upfront with no strings attached. Next Spend the money on research to make this 30 sec clip. next I need to ask for more money because now I need to get the video equipment to make it…..
Sorry I thought this is the way government handout works right?

You made mistake #1, there’s too much detail in how you’ll spend the money.

You forgot the part about the blue ribbon commission.
Here’s my idea that someone with skills can implement and win some Benjamins:
Superimpose The One’s face over Don Corleone’s during the conversation with Bonasera. The US citizens ask Hussein for “a favor”, and he replies “Good. Someday, and that day may never come, I’ll call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day – accept this gift “.
WestCoastCoconut; what about the set asides? For every three Queens you will need a dyke and for every three parolees you will need a recovering junkie, although that could be a double, triple duty. Hire a dyke on parole and in recovery and it counts as three. Get one with a split personality and you get a six!
Just trying to help.
I used the calculater at that sight
total we will pay (over 30 years at 5% interest)
$106,671
Slightly more than I am paying for my home in Fort Myers with a 30 yr mortgage.
Makes me wish I had cashed out the equity in ‘07 and ran with that $217,000!
Can’t I just get into on of the obamathons and not have to do all that work of making a video? I’ll practice watching oprah and dr. phil so I can get my crying jag on when I’m cued by the production manager to let me know that the camera is on me.
on=one
Since the only camera I have is an old Brownie that uses kodak film, I will have to request my $28,130 without the video and by snail mail. Of course the alternative is for the government to send me one of those neat video thingees as well as an advisor to teach me how to use it. Come to think of it, the adviser and me will need some food, so how about throwing in a cook? Also, I will need someone to give me an idea, so how about an idea guy from some nice warm place like a Kariban island. Since this is getting too difficult for me, how about a government manager to make sure everything works. I guess we will need to put this on the internet, whatever, so throw in an internet gal with a sexy bod. I think that should do it, but just in case how about sending me an intelligent first grader with the ability to ask good questions.
“Extreme Financial Makeover”
or
“Pimp My Portfolio”
Either way, sounds like a great idea!
Send the family off to Disney World while a team of accountants and lawyers straighten out the family’s bills and money issues with donations from sponsors like Sears!
Move that valise! Move that valise!
Hey…that one sounds like a great idea!
flmom and FilmLadd. Thanks!
I’ll ask Nancy Pelosi to lead it and get my 7th grade daughter to write up the bill…scratch that, she overqualified. I am talking about my daughter now
OH SWEET!!!!! I got me 82 iMacs coming!
Are you posting a clip, Michelle? It would probably be the winner, no doubt.
Errah Doorbell rings, Man walks to the door. It’s an appliance delivery man making a delivery to the homeowner. Pan to man face, its William Jefferson taking delivery of a new full size freezer . . . .
Errah I’d also do a film staring Harry Reid and Nancy Pellosi in Papillion, The Next Genneration.
