Sounds like McBama are just more of the same. Yet another reason to consider Bob Barr for President. Have you read his issues pages? http://www.BobBarr2008.com You might agree with him on more than you think!

Because puppies! I want that sign on my front lawn.
Now the old graphics seem simplistic... outdated.... blah. And the elephant, the donkey and the helicopter seem to present a mystic triangle, completed by the fireworks and balloons around the huge phallic symbol. Yeah graphics!

GRAPHICS INFO: We have a friend. His name is Jake. He is great at graphics. He worked very hard on these graphics (complete with Nosy the McCainephant), which was difficult for him since we locked him in that cage and fed him only the bread crusts Writer Mark removes from my sandwiches so I won't get cranky.
So we would like to publicly thank Jake Mathew for those graphics, which we love... and apologize for the cage/crust thing.
Thanks Jake!

Jake is very good at graphics. I still dont like them on this production - they're unnecessary, distracting, and most likely furthering the A.D.H.D. epidemic that makes America's TV viewership a suffering bunch of... i forget what i was saying. ooh, fireworks!

Brett_Erlich:
Thanks for the feedback. Glad that (most) of you like the graphics package. Originally Mark and Brett asked me to create something calm and beautiful. The title sequence only contained the white house and the neon Vacancy sign. (and some pretty clouds and birds and sun rays)
Later, the "higher-ups" thought it needed to be more crazier, which is when the idea of adding fireworks, political signs, and our beloved McCain elephant came in. While the busy animation may be a little distracting compared to the blue background from the old graphics, political campaign coverage is supposed to be overwelming and exciting and dramatic. Thinking in those terms, I think the graphics do work.

Brett and puppies?? My day is complete!
Why is the ferret in a bee costume?
I appreciate the Obama tire pressure message though, I needed to check that and the reminder was helpful. Now if he could just remind us to change our air filters, check our smoke detector batteries and check the fluids in our cars, I could get through the whole summer without needing to be nagged by my dad.
