Troubling. Important. Message to the US at large from the United States Department of the Treasury
Edited on Sun Dec-14-08 11:45 AM by Mira
I tried hard to post this as a u-tube - 1 Min and VERY IMPORTANT - video.
Could not do it.
So now, I'm sorry to trouble you, it requires a click to see and hear it.
Somewhere out there an Executive is hurting...............

1. I'm so overwhelmed by bad news, I can't bring myself to watch
Edited on Sun Dec-14-08 10:55 AM by hlthe2b
I'm betting I'm not the only one. Perhaps if you include a couple of sentences as to what this is all about. If it is simply another, "Americans are all going to be in soup lines soon" message, I'll pass. Most of us are scared shitless already. :shrug:

2. It's a parody. Supposed to make you laugh...about a poor, unfortunate executive
who can't afford weekends in Aruba anymore.:rofl:

6. Thank you.... I'll go take a look
But, I do want to underscore the importance of not just posting link. Not only is it problematic for those with slower connections but also important to others who don't want to view certain types of content as well.

Please DUers, take a couple extra seconds to comment on what you are posting, rather than just a link.

12. Blue State Native - if you tell me how you found that as a tube video I will
send you my new hot off the press bumpersticker, your choice, for free...
Just email me please. It irritates me that my learning curve on some things is so steep.
