TWO GOOD LEGS

Thursday, August 19, 2004

Just Ask My, err, Supporters...

(1) Your president runs a campaign ad featuring images of those killed in the 9/11 attacks. MESSAGE: "You can bet if these dead folks could talk they'd be glad I'm out there starting wars."

RESPONSE: Victims' families asks the Bush Administration to stop using their loved ones' corpses for political gain.

(2) In a public speech scoffing at the notion of sensitivity, Dick Cheney invokes the name of Daniel Pearle. MESSAGE: "You can bet the Pearles are glad we're waging insensitive war"

RESPONSE: The Pearle family asks the Bush Administration to stop using their loved one's corpse for political gain.

(3) In a new campaign ad, your president claims credit for Iraq appearing at the Olympics as a "free" country this year. MESSAGE: "You can bet that soccer team is glad I invaded their country."

RESPONSE: "Iraq as a team does not want Mr. Bush to use us for the presidential campaign," Sadir told SI.com through a translator, speaking calmly and directly. "He can find another way to advertise himself."
