I guess I’m the only dumbass that bothered to make one. Someone needs to challenge my video editing supremacy.

As ever, happy to see you guys put this kind of content on here. Metal rocks (and sucks, and headbangs), and politics is metal, damn it! Horns to contests, too.

I know this blog is really chill, but for something like this, I’d appreciate a little more notice, and also a concrete due date. I’m not whiz with video editing software, so while I could probably kludge something together, it’ll take time, and this weekend is already looking full.

So all’s I’m sayin’ is, I love ya. But let’s get some communicative clarity up in hurr, huh?

“[W]e’re forced to choose between one of two men, Barack Obama or John McCain.”

Wrong. There are actually several candidates. Click my name.

Sammy- The internet is available to anyone at your local library, all you need is a membership card, most are free if not, very cheap. Also, many jails have internet access as well. FYI

Vince, does it have to be video or can we also throw in some kickass pictures too?

I have a job so I will throw out an idea. Just put random pictures of Obama with Trivium – Detonation playing

Thats the sound of humanity melting away
Say goodbye it’s the end of days
Fire rains down on the American dream
Watch all you love seethe and scream
Each will dig their own graves
And bury themselves in life’s failures

I was just giving an idea to anyone who wanted to try it, that’s all.

@ Sammy & Flora:

I didn’t mean to imply that every video should have the same thing as in the Rick Astley vid where they actually cut audio from Obama’s speeches and used it. Just plain ol’ video footage underneath Hatebreed, Type O, or any other band could be pretty damn cool if cut correctly.

Sammy – they get a job ;)

I would love to see an Obama video featuring the Type O Negative song Kill All The White People. That’d be hilarious :P Since I’ve not the time to do it myself, I’m throwing it out there.

Exactly how long does one have to scour videos of Obama speeches just to find the material for a video like this? And how DOES a jobless person afford the internet?
