You read that right...starting today ProgressiveCongress.org is running a Video Contest & the grand prize winner will win an iPad2. They will also get to spend some time with Rep. Raul Grijalva, Co-Chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.
Warning: graphic laden diary- sorry couldn't be helped! but if you want know more about the contest without the graphics just go to the Contest Webpage
because in order to win them you have to do the following:
Just like Jonathan Lithgow on Stephen Colbert a week and a half ago, we want
YOU to read the now infamous over the top press release put out by Newt Gingrich. You have from now until next Monday, June 6 at midnight to make your video, put it on your YouTube account and send us the link via the form on the
contest website. Then the judges --
Darcy Burner, Executive Director of
ProgressiveCongress.org,
David Waldman of the
Daily Kos front page, Will Urquhart of
Main Street Insider and
yours truly ProgressiveCongress.org's new part time New Media Director-- will take 2 days to view all of the videos and pick our top 10. Then starting June 9, you'll have 5 days to come like our
Facebook page and vote on the videos.
By the way- you must do it better than the pooties....take it away pooties...
TA daaaaa
Go forth and videotape!
disclosure: I now am an actual part time employee of ProgressiveCongress.org as the New Media Director so yeah this contest is my baby so to speak
