Tell Me What You Fear ♠ Dis Moi Ce Que Tu Crains |

The new Flash animation at the top of the home page was inspired by a reader's email to Our InstaLord of the Blogs, thank to B. Durbin (with whom I share an inexhaustible interest for Terry Pratchett apparently.) who added it to an hypothetical "things I'd like to see df do" list in the comments of this post.

It seems that Ted Kennedy, like too many people around, needs a little reminder on recent history.

Considering that when it comes to the contempt for 9/11 and its implications, Mr. Kennedy doesn't have the excuse to be French (I mean "excuse" in the sense of "justification" of course), let's give it to him:

Here's an archive containing the Flash movie and instructions to publish it on your site/blog (260 Kb).
Here are the self playing projectors: For Windows (executable inside the zip. 782 Kb) and for Mac (hqx, 2,120 Kb).

Use it at your heart's content: I'm inclined to believe that what Ted Kennedy really fears is you and your choice in November.

UPDATE:

There were reports of damaged downloads, notably on the web version archive. It should be fixed now, sorry for the inconvenience.

La nouvelle animation Flash en haut de la home page est inspirée de l'email d'un lecteur de Notre InstaSeigneur des Blogs, grâce à B. Durbin (avec qui je partage manifestement un intérêt intarissable pour Terry Pratchett.) qui l'a ajouté sur une hypothétique liste des "choses que j'aimerais voir faire par df" dans les commentaires de ce post.

Il semble que Ted Kennedy, comme de bien trop nombreux autres, a besoin d'un petit rappel de l'histoire récente.

Considérant qu'en ce qui concerne le mépris du 11 Septembre et de ses implications, M. Kennedy n'a pas l'excuse d'être français (Et j'entends "excuse" dans le sens de "justification" bien entendu), donnons le lui :

Voici l'archive contenant le clip Flash et les instructions pour le publier sur votre site/blog (260 Ko).
Voici les projecteurs autoexécutables : Pour Windows (exécutable dans le zip. 782 Ko) et pour Mac (hqx, 2,120 Ko).

Utilisez sans modération: j'ai tendance à penser que ce que Ted Kennedy craint vraiment c'est vous et votre choix en Novembre.

MISE A JOUR :

J'ai été averti que certains téléchargements étaient endommagés, notamment l'archive de la version web. Cela devrait être rétabli maintenant, désolé pour le désagrément.

I love it, but with some sound it would be even better

Merci, Monsieur Dissident. It is good, if painful, to be reminded. You have performed a valuable service for the cause of Liberty. Alex Kroll Jr

I think sound would dilute the message. Silence allows the viewer to fill in with his/her own imagination which (as the best horror movie creators know) is always more powerful.

LibraryGryffon: My thoughts exactly: sound would have been at best superfluous and at worst an unpleasant distraction from the gravity of the event. Some people, starting with Ted K. are obviously way too "distracted" on that issue. Besides, this is not f* Hollywood anyway, right?

yeah U want another Georges W.Bush for 4 years?This guy who reduced the national security's budget before the 9/11 ?Are U crazy?

And Clinton didn't slash and burn the budget on national security and to the miiltary? The operative word here is "BEFORE" this unprecedented attack was launched on innocent civilians by evil minds. I would be crazy to throw in with a flip-flopping opportunistic feeder from Taxachusetts. Until the attack on 9/11, and more importantly the "reaction" by the Left, I WAS a yellow dog Democrat. Terrorists done killed my yeller dawg. Thank God they got to it before they got to me. Never forget, never. Cher, cher Frogaman, I will never forget, ever. And it pains me that there are those out there who have. Thank you for taking your precious time to use your considerable talent to create this devastating reminder. Merci, merci, merci. Vous etes un bon et vrai ami des Etats Unis.

Val: I wouldn't care too much about our Super Hawk romuald. Judging by his first name and sloppy syntax, and as confirmed by his IP address, our expert in George Bush's National Security budget policy is commenting from the south of France... It has to be some sort of the DNC strategy copycat: the whole "I'm John Kerry reporting for duty", tougher-than-thou-on-terror make believe. Zeropean copycats put aside, I can't say I'm surprised how this party, that praise itself as being the party of the people after all, is not getting how rightfully angered the American people is. Even though, again, they don't even have the excuse to be French...

Romuald is quite correct President Bush did build the millitary before 9/11 and used federal funds in the process. Why this is a bothersome happening is beyond me. That increased millitary spending allowed for a quick and thourough ass whomping of Islamo-facists groupings from Afghanistan to Iraq, and you can safely bet your retirement that ass whomping in areas untold and areas yet to come will unfold in the near future. Bush, quite inlike Kerry, is willing to defy opinion polls to do what is right. Oh, by the way I just stumbled across your fabulous web site a few weeks ago, I was sure that fossilized remains of the French Conservitive was all that was left. I am overjoyed to have friends in Europe still.
