I went to CNN but couldn't find the ad.  How do I pull this up?  Do you have the link to it.

You know the Grassfire ad reminds me of the old commerical by Burger King "Wheres the Beef"

LOL.

THanks for the kudos. The ad is posted here:

http://www.wheresthefence.com

Sorry for not giving FS team heads up yesterday. We were chasing our tails with last-minute details! I'll post more info later today. 

I made these graphics links to the ad. feel free to put them on any websites you manage (cut/paste). 

 BTW, VeeBee, "the world" will see it! It's running nationally on both CNN and Fox News as well as in 7 key markets with amnesty senators. We estimate the campaign will be viewed more than 15 million times this week.

More to come!

How about ads that highlight the facts like anchor babies, healthcare costs, foodstamps, WIC, all the incentives that WE pay for.


"We do need to play by the rules. The people affilitated with NCLR, etc. will let emotions get the best of them and will put their feet into their own mouths by their actions. Just look at the demonstrations and the way the people act. What we need to do is outsmart all of them. We have the brainpower. We need to operate as a cohesive, unified, smart group."

AP, if this ad takes off like we think it may, we'll be hitting many issues under the "Where's The Fence?" banner. For example, we shot two additional ads (rollout to come) and have concepts on many more. We think this platform could become a rallying cry that galvanizes opposition to amnesty from a wide coalition. Thanks!

 Steve

Oh darn, my teen took off with my headset...lol

Thank you so much Steve. Ill watch it later. I wrote out a new little letter to send to the senate today. Im half done. Its always nice to remind them of their past promises  and tell them, thats the reason why we dont beleive this promise. The last promise was never kept and this one is even worse.




Deport congress and the president!!

This should appeal to the people that enjoy humor as well as those who take this matter serious, which everyone should. I just donated to keep the add going.

Steve...kudos to you for the ad!  It's definitely got the "hook" it needs to draw attention.  What ad agency did you work with?

Very good add.  I hope that the yazoos in D.C. get the message, also the wetbacks.

I loved the ads too!  I think we should all dig deep and make a generous donation to help keep this going.  It costs to run these ads and if we really want to make an impact, we all must help to carry the load.  Steve and Grassfire are doing their part and we must do ours by supporting them financially and in prayer.

Bless you, Steve, Grassfire and Firesociety for all that you are doing to stop this INVASION.  You are in my prayers especially on Wednesday during your events in Washington DC.  Please let us know how it goes.

WELL DONE!!!  I laughed so hard I spilled my coffee.  Great job, Steve!  I sent it from the donation page to all the people on my list,especially the rich ones.  Some people, like me, never watch TV so might very well miss this.  Think the audio would convey to radio?  Any plans in that direction?  Err America could use the advertising dollars.

Steve was on Al Rantel's show last night and they played the video.  It came across really great.  Kudos Steve.  Thanks for doing this at just the right time.  And yes I did donate so you can keep this thing running for a while.

Love the humor in these ads, but how about something that would absolutely put Americans hearts in thier stomachs...how about showing Americans with no healthcare, no jobs, and confused on why our government would put another country's f*cking people over our own....make this ad felt by every race, creed, and color....make them open thier eyes!
