2004 ElectionThank you to anyone that helped us get the two
political videos we produced broadcasted on their local public access
cable stations in Massachusetts,
Our most popular video we have produced with George W. Bush
was the Ted Williams and George
Bush Interview we made in 2000. Parts of this show have
been seen throughout the country.

There is an old saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words". However, many times pictures can describe things much better than one can put into just one thousand words. The following three pictures very graphically show the positions of the two main candidates in this year's 2004 Presidential Election.
This first picture shows an example of that famous saying, with
John Kerry's "tough stand" positions on the war and almost every other
issue in this years presidential election .

This second picture was one taken by us for our television show "WINGS
Sports" in Ted Williams' hotel room
New Hampshire on January 18, 2000. On that day, George
W. Bush was having a good time, mostly talking about baseball with Ted
Williams, Dennis Eckesley and the rest of us in the room that
afternoon.
There is no question that 9/11 attacks on
the United States have had a great effect on everyone in our country and
the world. These two pictures of President Bush better describe how
the 9/11 attacks have effected him much better than what thousands
of words could do.
This last picture of President George W. Bush and the story below
was first e-mailed to me by a friend in August 2004. This picture and
story later become a web site,
www.ashleysstory.com and a television ad for George Bush.

"The president's entire expression transformed," Mr. Faulkner told me on
Sunday. "He turned and came back against the flow and his eyes locked on
Ashley's. His face showed a man who was no longer the president, he was a
father and a husband." President Bush made his way back to Ashley and he
embraced the 15-year old young woman. "She snuggled in with the president just
like she did when she was a little girl with her dad," Mr. Faulkner said. "I
know it's hard," Mr. Faulkner heard the president tell his daughter. "I'm
okay," Ashley told the president. The embrace continued.
Mr. Faulkner had his Kodak digital camera with him and debated on invading this
very private moment between his daughter and the leader of the free world. "For
20-30 seconds the president belonged exclusively to Ashley," Lynn Faulkner told
me. So he decided to capture the moment without invading Ashley and the
president's privacy. He held up his digital camera, not even aiming with his
eye and with one click snapped just one picture. It showed in detail the face
of a compassionate man who just happens to be the president comforting a young
woman who lost her mother in the 9/11 attacks on America.
Mr. Faulkner told me that he saw tears in his daughter's eyes, and saw emotion
that he hadn't seen from his daughter in 2 years. Ashley told her dad, "The way
he was holding me, with my head against his chest, it felt like he was trying to
protect me, he wanted to make sure that I was safe." That feeling is captured
in a very clear way in this moving unscripted photo. It's the only photo of
this special embrace as the press corps had already been ushered back on the
bus. And the photo was never meant for publication. All Mr. Faulkner did when
he returned home from the event was e-mail it to 15 friends and family. But by
the middle of last week, I had received the photo from eight different people.
Others were also receiving the photo and forwarding it along. It became an
Internet phenomenon, as it was e-mailed around America.
Mr. Faulkner called the embrace "President Bush's precious gift to my daughter."
And with his small act of e-mailing that photo to friends and family, the
picture can now become a gift to the American people.
And as sad as the story is the release and publication is a good thing.
Disgusting photos coming out of Iraq for the past 10 days have shocked
Americans, as they should have. But no longer are the terrible images of 9/11
shown. While the Iraq prison photos have been picked up by the elite media and
shown time and again, this touching photo has gone largely ignored by the
mainstream media. But the alternative media has made this touching powerful
photo one of the most e-mailed photos of last week. The Internet once again
took over where the elite media failed. Matt Drudge ran it on May 7th,
as did the Page 2 Politics journal, and hundreds of other blogs. Millions have
now seen it, but millions more need to. It gives a stark reminder why America
is at war with radical Islam and other terrorists around the world that are
determined to cause this kind of pain to other American families.
