***Update*** I should have emphasized the bloggers participating in the 2996 tribute are not just conservative. Many liberal and non-political blogs are posting tributes. This post deals with the Democratic Underground specifically.
On September 11, 2006, 2996 bloggers will pay tribute to the 2996 victims of 9-11. It is my honor to pay tribute to Mon Gjonbalaj of New York who died at the World Trade Center.
We will honor them by remembering their lives,
and not by remembering their murderers.
Michelle Malkin has a post up contrasting the 2996 tribute to what the lefties at DU have planned.
To counteract the effects the ABC 9-11 movie could have on the midterm elections, I recommend this course of action:
The night of, and the morning after, people will be hitting the internet looking for information on the events as depicted in this movie.
Our biggest opportunity will be to have nearly identical blog posts waiting, then submit them to be found internet wide the morning after the movie. Google and Technorati will pick up on these posts quickly. We can make these entries dominate the first several pages of the search engines.
MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!
Get every Democratic friendly blog on board as possible... you e-mail the ones you know, they'll e-mail the ones they know, etc. Make SURE these blogs are on the Technorati network and have also been submitted to Google's blog search.
For one day, change the title of your blog to the title of the movie.
Agree on a clear, detailed, and sourced body of information -- I've seen several examples on DU lately disputing what is in the movie. Media Matters has one. One was posted today on DU by Richard Clarke.
Everyone post it. Right after the movie is over or the next morning at the latest.
MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!
Michelle: "I think it's a rather striking contrast." Yes it is.
Dale Roe organized the blogger tribute and Heaven only knows how many hours he dedicated to making it happen. My heartfelt thanks to Dale and many others who helped make it possible for me to play a small part in honoring the lives of the victims of September 11.
