    Allow me to point you in the direction of the thread that was already going about the Bush ads. Enjoy. Also, allow me to suggest a lock on this one.



    Edit: Whoops...misread the URL from the other thread. My bad. But in my defense, there is already a thread going on that is like this one \

    OUCH!

    That's pretty harsh.

    I wish all ads like this required footnotes at the bottom of the screen, but there's more truth than I wish were the case in several of them. "In My Country" and "Imagine" and "Army of One" in particular.

    Haha, I wonder if the RNC will host that one too.

    Those ads are all clever and very well made.

    Hey - the ad "Bring 'em on" used to be up there, but now it's gone. That's the one that had pictures of the soldiers that had been killed flashing while Bush talked about womd and said "bring 'em on." I bet someone complained. I'm not sure I like that either, because I'd guess many (probably most) of the soldier's families wouldn't like their dead kid's pictures used in an anti-war ad. But it was a very powerful ad.

    BRussell, Here's the fine print:
