| Liar Liar Pants on Fire (TrueMajority project) |
|
Did anyone else get this email? It's hilarious.
Between MoveOn and TrueMajority, I think we are well armed for the upcoming fight.
------------ It's pretty clear that to accomplish the goals of TrueMajority, our elected officials need to share our vision. So we have formed a new legal entity, TrueMajorityACTION which will educate, lobby, and GET ACTIVE IN THE 2004 ELECTIONS.
TrueMajorityACTION's first project is to brand George Bush as a liar. So we're building a 12' high statue of our president with his pants on fire (using artificial flames) which we will drive all over the country on his very own flatbed trailer.
We'll use ridicule and whimsy to disseminate into the national consciousness what the media and pundits aren't saying - that this president lies about some of the most important issues facing our country.
So here's the idea behind the campaign:
If we are going to cut through the clutter of media, we can't just call Bush a liar. The "Pants On Fire" statue sends the message that the facts are so plain to see that even a child can get it. By making him look silly, we stress how important this really is.
People who see Bush with his pants on fire (and our PantsOnFire.net banner) will think "Liar, Liar." This interactive mental process makes it really sink in.
It'll take $30,000 from our members to get George and his pants on the road. So if you like this idea, we really need your help. Please click here to donate and become a member in good standing with TrueMajorityACTION.

Liar, liar, pants on fire. Hang them on a telephone wire. -- children's rhyme
This is going to be a lot of fun. And powerful too.
