September 11th Video Project

Hello all,

Let me introduce you to what I am doing. In my history class, we were assigned a project to do a movie about an event in American history. Now, my teacher is one of these left-wing whackos who bashes the President each time he gets a chance to, yet he calls himself a "centrist" (you've got to love these people). Anyway, instead of coming up with some stupid life in the 60s video which a group wanted me to be a part of, I decided to do an individual "short documentary" (7-8 minutes, so it's not really a real documentary, just a summery) on the events of September 11th and beyond.

I don't want to hold back. So far, I have footage of the WTC attacks, footage of the Pentagon, and a clip where President Bush is giving a speech. As well, I have footage/pictures of these "anti-war" people and some of their anti-American messages. A fellow student even sent me a clip of a man jumping out of a window of the WTC and suggested that I use that to show people what kind of hell these victims were going through.

What I'm asking from you all is if you can contribute in any way. Be it a video clip, pictures, a quote from our national leaders, or any other advice. I really want to hit home with this and wake people up to what happened that day because some of these kids (and adults) have truly forgotten what happened that day and what is at stake today.

This video is for educational purposes only. No money is going to be made off it. Thus, I believe fair use issue of Copywrite laws are at use. Either way, every source I use will be documented in the film credits.

Thank you for your time.

Thanks to all who helped me with my project for American History class.

You are gonna' turn out OK.
Gratitude is the greatest virtue...even the ancient pagans recognized this
and you've picked up on something even some old geezers never get.

Sorry I can't help with getting your video on the Internet...but here's
a bump...maybe someone will see this and help out.

It was the most recent Newsmax issue with Sen. John Kerry

I don't want you to get in more trouble with your teacher...
but Senator Kerry with his flipfloppin' comments on National Public Radio
about the Iraqi terrorists should win him a "Tokyo Rose" award for giving aid and
comfort to the enemy.
And the conservative Senator from Massachussetts (Kennedy) is giving Kerry
a good run for the money.

These two guys are getting Marines killed (IMHO).

I hope your video is well recieved. Keep your "teacher" on his toes, he will be less inclined to spin the truth.

Regarding Condi's testimony, you may want to know this. Ben Venista (spelling?) asked two question in a row, then tried to cut Condi off after she answered the second quick question and attempted to answer his first question. It was a trick, since the title of the PDB in reference sounded like they knew there was a concrete domestic terror threat. The title didn't do the brief justice, and Condi pointed that out after about 3 or 4 interuptions. And notice, the news might use the sound bite to make Condi and G.W. look bad. It was soooo political it about made me puke. There were two liberals on that commission, that attacked Condi, the other was Senator Bob Kerrey (spelling?). And to top it off the moderate Republican moderator didn't kick out the "spectators" when they interupted the hearing and broke into applause...which took place more than one time. They should have been removed but the moderator obviously lacked discernment.

IMHO Condi gets an A+! There is not one smarter, more intelligent, woman in America. She also happens to be a classy lady, and Hillary offers absolutely NO competition in that category. I'd vote for Condi if she were to run for the office of U.S. President!

Thank you for defending our Commander-in-Chief.

Here's a tip for distributing the video. Load Kazaa onto your computer. There's a free version with no spyware. Then make the video available by enabling sharing of your files. Then tell us what the exact name of the file is, and when we go there and search for it by name, we should find it.

It's really pretty simple. Just make the file name long enough that we don't get zillions of results.
