I ask (if possible) that all of my votes be transferred to "Dick Cheney's Jury."

-Great work, everyone!

Well done!  You got my vote!

Lies, deceits, coverups, and more. It's time the dastardly duo go~

Nancy's Friend is easily the best. It makes its points clearly, cleverly and uniquely, with just one caveat. Remix the music down on the audio track so you can hear the voice better. Also, it's not quite fair because this spot takes 3:30 min. to tell the story, far longer than the others. That's unrealistic if you plan to actually use it. However, it could easily be cut, and with a little additional shooting, could be made into several spots in a terrific campaign. Just make sure to have one laugh line in each--like how she looked. Just my 2 cents after many, many years slaving as a writer and creative director in NYC's ad biz.

Improve the audio and you have a winner in any contest you submit it to! Well done!!

Maybe we should start a campaign to put more pressure on the leading Democrats in Congress to push for impeachment. This business of impeachment "being off the table" is BS. They need to know that the people are fed up and want this administration to be held accountable for their assault on our democracy. If something isn't done to stop them soon, like now before the next election, then there may not be another election. And for those of you who think Hillary would be any better, you should think again. Hubby Bill and the Bush's are best buds and you can bet it would be more of the same under a different label. Support Dennis Kucinich for a REAL change!

This video targeted the whole Dick mess. I loved it! Now if only Nancy would watch it.

It does not matter if there is enough time to Impeach. What matters is the American people want to go up against these bastards and let the World know we do not support their Criminal acts.Outside of violent action to bring the Government down this is the only avenue open. Vote for Ron Paul he is the only one making any sense.

Well done w/regard to the content, but the sound quality is horrible. However, her video, while it needs more clarity as far as who she is talking to and what time, is the one that points out the most obvious issues regarding the need for impeachement.

I really, really liked History...Future. It makes its point quickly, clearly, and with a goosebump inducing ending.

I thought the Nancy vid had a bunch of great talking points. Unfortunately, the audio quality was poor, and tho the girl on the phone was cute, the visuals were... boring. That vid was really good, except it wasn't.

Dump Dick was my fave; engaging, liked the juxtapositon of the 2 dicks, a hint of humor.

They were all good - nice work!

Choice #1: While I appreciated the sentiments of all the videos, "Dick Cheney's Jury" took the issue of our administration's lawlessness most seriously, and presented it with clarity, style, appropriate tone of Cheneyesque creepiness, and great production values. Cheney damns himself with his own words. And the video shows this in the context of Nixonian history, and that previous constitutional crisis.

If I were Cheney, I'd be most afraid of this one. Great job, Patriot NW!

Choice # 2: "The History of Nixon and the Future of Cheney" is very good, but not quite as tight or focused.

Choice #3: "Nancy Calls For Impeachment" is fun and has obvious charm, but the issue is too important to play with. Maybe I'm too disappointed in Nancy Pelosi to laugh about it now. I'd rather save my chuckles for the post-impeachment period.

#4. "Headzup: Ghost of Nixon" - not my choice at all! It's superficial and is emotionally tone-deaf.

Most of the final videos i've viewed are good, but "Dick Cheney's Jury" seems to register best with me (in light of the current political situation).

I would like him impeached and removed from office. But do you think it is really possible with the time left until 2008 elections? We must be realistic. I don't think any of the videos are worthy and can only be ineffectual at best.

Dick Cheney's Jury and Nancy calls for impeachment are too close too call. Both cover enough ground to call for impeachment. Nancy's video was really cute but substantive. Dick Cheney's jury showed what a liar the vp is. Thought headzup was jazzy and comedic. I guess I'd have to give it to nancy's video for capturing the frustration about the Dems giving Bush and Cheney a pass.

I really like this concept. But this video is too long. Also, all the Dem/Repub retoric needs to be cut. This is about a constitutional crisis. It is Nancy's job and oath of office to protect and defend the constitution. This is NOT about getting Cheney out of office. This is about balance-of-power, a nation of laws, and medicine for what ails this country. It is about the fact that the voters have already figured this out. Even many Republicans. Cheney needs to go because of what he has done, not because of who he is or what party he is in.

Thanks

Why bring up Nixon? The message is too important to obscure with that comparison. Nancy's debating skills shine. This is a wonderful piece of work. Yes, it should be re-shot and edited, but all in all, it's the best.

It's by far the most gripping and engaging of the pieces. I also really appreciate the clarity of the message. Wonderful.

While Dick and Baby Bush both need to be impeached and would certainly welcome both of them gone. It seems to me we should be more worried about why the Democrats (Nancy Pelosi in particular) have done nothing to stop the Illegal Immoral adminstration from destroying our American way of life. FISA law just passed which give Gonzales the right to approve wire taps??????? Give me a break since when do we put criminals in charge of deciding what is legal?????? We must cut off funding for this war if we are to ever stop it before we hopefully get a Democrat in the White House in 2009. I wonder how many American lives we are willing to lose before then?

Like John Nichols of The Nation magazine wrote in his book and said on Bill Moyers NOW PBS show: This is not a constitutional crisis because the writers and signers of the U.S. Constitution wrote into the document of law the solution to the expected problem of executive abuse of power and monarch like behavior. Indeed, seven paragraphs refer to impeachment/removal from office. Why, how, who, next in line to office, etc. It is very clear that impeachment is the answer and the duty of those who took the oath of office to uphold the U.S. Constitution. Even the conservative GOP guy who wrote the impeachment initiative of Clinton agrees!! We need to demand Pelosi do her duty. The nation is harmed by not getting the facts via investigation, not making the pres. and vice accountable for their actions. They have set a terrible destructive precedent for the future. I would like to see a video with Sen Lott and other GOP senators speaking out against lies and the damage caused by them at the Clinton alternating with the lies as spoken by Dick and George. I would like to see the consequences: Clinton's female intern vs the coffins and bodies of dead soldiers and dead and wounded Iraqis. Put these things interspersed into the Nancy video. One video shows two people taking the oath of office, one is Cheney, who says he swears to "discharge". What is his definition of "discharge" in that context? We know his definition of "torture" suites his own agenda. I know he has his own definition of "freedom" and "truth". So does "discharge" mean doing away with acting to support the U.S. Constitution, the way Bush does not enforce the laws he signs and corrupts the missions of agencies like the FCC and EPA, and FDA?

How about mentioning that candidate Rep. Dennis Kucinich submitted H.R. 333 with courage, wisdom, insight, and conviction and knowledge of our U.S. Constitution and the intent of its writers and signers. He should be praised for doing his duty to uphold the U.S. Constitution while Pelosi is shirking her duty. How about standing up to the media and stop the blackout, the lack of coverage of Kucinich!!!

First place: "Nancy calls for Impeachment" Most persuasive overall argument for impeachment. Plus it's easier on the eyes to look at a fit woman than chubby male geezers. Second place: "Dump Dick" Catches Cheney in a lie by showing his previous statement. Third Place: "History of Nixon & Future of Cheney" Good comparative history. Needs better audio. Forth Place: "Headzup: Dump Dick Contest- Ghost of Nixon" Engaging visually and good audio, but argument is presented too briefly and too jokingly to be really convincing. Good videos overall, but I would have liked to also have seen references to Cheney's profiteering/corruption/conflict-of-interest via no-bid contracts for Halliburton when he owns so many shares; and Cheney's threat to national security in addition to endangering the lives of spies and informants who were working with Valerie Plame when she was outed.

First place: Nancy's call for impeach this dick. 2nd: Cheney's Jury. Love the lava lamp, baby.

Impeach. Capiche?

Nancy Calls for Impeachment is the best.

This is a great one. It's expressed in language and in a way the average person might use when talking to a friend. It brings the issue closest to the people of today.

I have a severe hearing loss. I tried to listen to the videos. There is too much "background" (music?) sound that obscures the dialogue. I wish there were captions/subtitles or some way to be sure as to the text of these videos.

The one with the two TVs is best.

Thank you for this forum, with facts presented in an entertaining fashion. Yes, a mention of Dennis Kucinich whenever this topic comes up, would be responsible. Thanks to Bill Moyer for rebroadcasting the discussion of impeachment. GET ANGRIER, PEOPLE!!!! see Arianna Huffington's post: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/marty-kaplan/our-years-of-magical-thin_b_5...

A lot of the videos spoke to me, I wish that Just do it! Would have made the final four.  Nancy calls for impeachment is light, funny, ironic and persuasive.  Simple & clever.  Well done!

The founding fathers spent a lot of time on Impeachment. It is part of the duties of Congress. By making Impeachment a political issue rather than a duty of Congress (under the present circumstances) our Democrats are as bad as the past Congress. The Congress must exercise it's duty and put a stop to the Executive branch's flagrant desire to be kings! If we don't stop it now, future Congresses will only use Impeachment as a politial tool. While the videos are great in some ways, they diminish the seriousness of this issue. I wonder how many people, including Congressmen and women even understand the Constitution and Impeachment. Maybe we need a few videos about this! MJC

Chatting with Nancy is wonderful! It touches all the important excuses that my Congress-people use. And it destroys them skillfully and accurately. Let's use it!

Cheney makes Nixon look like a grade-school kid. There's no comparison. Cheney is so much more evil.

Hard to choose, but I vote for Dump Dick--Presents the most clear and concise reasons USING HIS OWN WORDS. This will appeal more to older, more conservative people--the target audience? Nancy's great, good to see younger Americans involved, but the sound isn't so good, and I don't think it has the impact to hold attention.

Best entry. Great idea, great script! Use a professinal actress who is more similar in age to Nancy Pelosi, do some very minor polishing on the script, and this is one dynamite add! Let's get onto the mass media!

I thought the "Nancy" video was by far the most clever and effective. I give it 5 stars.

ghost of nixon was great keep writing such funny comedy
