Long Time Political Activist And Grandson Compete For $2,500 Prize

Please check out http://bushland.cf.huffingtonpost.com

On the “Contageous Festival” at the Huffington Post, artists compete for prize money. The URL is http://bushland.cf.huffingtonpost.com The the Huffington site, viewed daily by thousnds, Keith Shirey and his grandson, Jesse Bailey, have teamed up trying to win $2,500 in the competion. The winner is determined by which offering gets the most views at the “Contageous Festival.” Their entry is called “Bushland - A Jesse Bailey Flash Video.”

If they win the prize money it will be spent on expensive tuition for Jesse in pursuit of advanced education in graphic arts.

The contest began on Sept. 1 and because the duo entered eight days late, they are some 50,000 views behind the top entry. Stated Bailey, “It doesn’t bother me. Artists are always racing to catch up when they have to meet deadlines. The Huffington Post gets thousands of hits a day. We’ve got a good chance. I’m not worried.”

The Flash Video excoriates Bush and the Republicans has being a menace to the planet, and the health and lives of the American people. The video also appears on Shirey’s web site, Http://www.progressive2008.com
Because of its unrestrained attack on Bush and the Republicans, Shirey has received death threats and charges of being a traitor.


Shirey,a political activist who has been jailed with Jackson Brown for anti-war protests, who has won fights against mega giant E-Bay for political censorship, also received death threats for selling his political art work on e-bay which also attacked Bush and the Republican Party.

Jesse, whose other grandfather is the famous jazz drummer, Donald Bailey, has already received several job offers because of the quality of his work on the Flash Video.

“I’m not surprised,” stated Shirey. “Creativity runs in the family. Jesse was drawing like a professional artist when he was twelve years old. But, in addition, he has worked hard to acquire technical expertise and has this endless appetite for learning more.”
