From his Facebook fan page: ... but I am shooting the Virtual Inaugural at a speaking event in Redlands, CA on Thursday night at 6:30. I have room for perhaps 100 additional people. If you are able to attend, I can send you the details by writing me at: It'll be fun if you can make it. If you can't you'll see it on Monday, I think. Bill Whittle

V-POTUS taping in Redlands was a BLAST. Thanks to all that came out. Now for several says of editing, audio, and keying to get me on the steps of the capitol. Very pleased with the content of the speech, and MANY thanks to all of those that came all the way out to Redlands.---Friday, 1-25
And, MAYBE, if I'm REALLY good, we can get my NEW thread posted in "Breaking News" for a while. ;)
Now that would be cool!
I saw this thread the other day, but didn’t post on it at that time.
I noticed it went from news to bloggers huh?
(I saw your post about that, it messes up the google thingie if that happens huh? That’s all way over my head, you da man!)
Then back again, helped me see it today!

From www.ejectejecteject.com:
The Hancock Park Patriots speech was excellent; I’ve had it in my mp3 player for a few weeks now. I do that with all his TSL episodes and speeches; Download the video from YouTube, convert to mp3 and put on my player and listen over and over again. I’ve been a huge fanboy of his ever since I found EjectEjectEject.com from a thread here on FR.

Bill Whittle running for [virtual] president
November 23 2012 by Christopher CookMost of us have experienced this: You’re in one of those bad dreams where something horrible has happened—you wake up, and after you shake off the dream and the sleep and you realize that it was just a dream, you are so relieved.Most have also experienced the reverse: You’re having a wonderful dream where something great has happened, and then you wake up and discover it isn’t real. Not that your waking life is necessarily bad, but the dream was really nice.
About halfway through the video below, I thought to myself, “Oh no, this is going to be one of those things where by the end, I will have become convinced that Bill Whittle IS the president, and then I will have to “wake up” and remember that Obama actually is.
A beautiful dream, a waking nightmare.
But then, near the end, Whittle—while not saying that he will run for president—does indicate that he will run for virtual president.
To understand what that means, you simply have to watch. And you should watch this video all the way through, because it is brilliant. Whittle is amazing in his Afterburner and Firewall videos, but that amazingness could simply be scripted and well-delivered.
This is Whittle off the cuff, answering questions from a pretend press corps as if he were the president.
And it really is incredible to hear.
Seriously . . . . well worth your time!

LOL that is perfect!
Hay, we’ve been on that plane...
BTTT
I took the liberty of starting this new list with the names of people (like you!) who have posed nice things about Bill here recently. ;)
This is intended to be a fairly "low volume" ping list...
...with only a few "pings" per week......but if you want OFF this list, just let me know, and I will remove your name ASAP.
Thank you for understanding, Ron
I’m good with that. If it is like his opening volley it will be depressing to see just how much of a joke we have for national leadership.
Thanks, RonDog...great to hear what an American president SHOULD sound like once again.
???
Good deal, Ron. Thanks for adding me to the list. I definitely don't mind being pinged to anything Bill Whittle puts out.

Bill Whittle: Be a Conservative and Like It
by Keith Koffler
November 27, 2012, 6:13 pmAs Republicans and even some "conservative" leaders around the nation melt into a slurry of mushy moderatism and propose jettisoning the philosophy that twice elected Ronald Reagan – by landslides – along comes Bill Whittle of PJTV to remind them and everyone else the power of unflinching conservative ideology.It’s a theme I’ve been striking around here, that the problem for Republicans in the last presidential election, as in the one before that and in 1992 and 1996, not that the candidates were too conservative.
It’s that they didn’t sell the philosophy they supposedly believed.Bush the Elder, Dole, McCain, and Romney all came out of the moderate wing of the Party without a serious commitment to conservative ideas. Unable to smell the watery soup they were offering, voters sent them home.What Whittle suggests here is that Republicans today, and even many conservatives, either don’t really believe conservative ideas or have been cowed by a frowning media and pop culture into hiding it.
So sit back and watch Whittle...
...and imagine a world in which a candidate does not try to pretend he’s something he’s not.
