Moss Takes on McCain
As the US presidential election looms, supporters of both John McCain and Barack Obama are digging in their heels and sharpening their rhetoric. Harold Moss has instead sharpened his pencil. By way of MOSS, a company that grew out of ten-year-old animation studio FlickerLab, Harold wrote, directed and supplied the voice over for this animated dissection of John McCain’s past. Wars, Lies, and Elections grew out of a great deal of research, which is all cataloged at the MOSS website, and the piece was then handed to Phil Lockerby who provided the animation direction. Character design and art direction was handled by Zartosht Soltani.
A big thanks to animator/illustrator Thomas Sebastian Smolenski for the story tip.

Blah, Blah, Blah….same old, knee jerk, schtick from the liberal left and to quote the commentator of this piece: “Just because THEY say something’s true doesn’t make it so”.
Animation/Design: GOOOOOOD!….message: BAAAAADD!

Of course you’d have to be an ostrich to vote for McCain. But Obama has never settled on a plan for when US troops will leave Iraq, let alone get the special interests out of that area. He’s still a corporate candidate.
If you’re concerned about Iraq, vote third-party, where the candidates actually say in concrete terms what their plans are for the middle east.

If everyone one wielded Flash as well as he, the world would be in a much different place and for the better.
The truth is that our own country is attacking us with psychological and geophysical warfare.
Rob- Quit living under a rock and stop listening to what the main stream media feeds you.

The all wise and knowing C.S. Murphy has spoken:
We’re being attacked by lions, tigers, bears and psychological and geophysical warfare??? What are you talking about? Sounds like you’ve been living in a deep dark cave with a bunch of tree hugging anti-establishment hippie’s!

Sure, and when you finish throwing your vote away why not go take a nap in the middle of the freeway during rush hour?

I liked the video all the way til the end. Cool animation for a simple style. Great points made. Needs to be seen, but Barak Obama has said he wants a surge in Afghanistan, and permanent bases in Iraq. He’s not for bringing the troops home, but rather for redeploying them in another unnecessary war. He has said all options are on the table for Iran. Obama is not a peace candidate either. Write in Ron Paul for peace!
