Support Our Cloned Troops

From Salon.com (subscription or ad-nag screen), apparent proof that for some purposes Bushco does not oppose cloning. Such as, making it appear as if a very large crowd of soldiers has got your back.

Joe Lockhart of the Kerry campaign responds:

“Now we know why this ad is named ‘Whatever it Takes.’ This administration has always had a problem telling the truth, from Iraq to jobs to health care. The Bush campaign’s advertising has been consistently dishonest in what they say. But today, it’s been exposed for being dishonest about what we see.

“If they won’t tell the truth in an ad, they won’t tell the truth about anything else. This doctored commercial is fundamentally dishonest and insults the intelligence of the American people. The Bush campaign has no choice but to take this ad down immediately and issue an apology for its latest attempt to mislead the American people. Unless George Bush has changed his position on human cloning, it’s got to pull this fundamentally dishonest ad immediately.”

P.S. Not one of the 80,000 people at the Bruce Springsteen concert in Madison, WI had a ticket! Not one signed a loyalty oath! And I don’t think there’s any Photoshopping in this picture. Maybe that’s why the Rethugnicans think we progressive liberrrrls are amateurs.

  1. I’ll be so glad when the $#@%^&* election is over. I’m really tired of all the crap commercials. You should see the stuff here in “Utar” with the Dems and Reps…. It’s gotten almost comical!!! What a bunch of bull shit!!!
    The bishops in the “charch” are telling the sheep that they really need to vote for Bush so he can “redeem” himself. And they are serious!!!!!

  2. “Redeem” himself? Are they actually saying he hasn’t performed to their expectations? Where can I find this – on the SL Trib web page?

  3. Not in the Trib…… this is what the @#$!#%#$% LDS church bishops are telling their sheep…

  4. That’s incredibly funny. It’s no fun living in the Bay Area. I don’t get to see any of the presidential campaign commercials. State and local propositions are the only ones getting airtime. I still have not seen Mel Gibson’s commercial urging a No vote on stem cell research.

  5. Eesh, what a horrifying thought. And I used to like Mel, too. But then he got all “kill me horribly” in all his movies and it was clear that his religious preoccupations were getting a little too much airplay in his noggin. Hey! Remember when I said “Under no circumstances let Mel Gibson within 500 yards (feet, WMDs, munitions, wetlands) of a Fox production!”? Ah, good times.

    However, I’ve seen a few national ads on the cable news networks that play on the cafeteria TVs at work.

    At least the news at http://www.electoral-vote.com is quite hopeful and even inspiring.
