The Embrace of Stupidity.
Is this photograph:



being used in Obama/Biden commercials/advertisements??

IF NOT, WHY NOT???? Nothing else forcefully proclaims McCain = McSame EQUALS BUSH'S THIRD TERM quite so tellingly!!!

I myself can't answer the question I posed, as I have no television service.

I have read that Democrats did place the photograph on billboards in St. Paul during the Repugnant Convention, but it should be used MUCH MORE OFTEN THAN THAT!!

Well, I am interested in reading the thoughts of others.

1. Agreed. This needs to be plastered everywhere. And another on LIES.
Keep it simple - McCain = Bush. And when their lips move, out spill endless lies.

3. I still say they should let the folks at The Daily Show do the ads...
they have a way of getting to the heart of the hypocrisy in seconds, brilliantly.

McCain = Bush
Palin = Bush + Cheney + Falwell


Oy

2. Hey, it IS being used. My 12-year-old son ran out of the living room the other night to
tell me that he's seen an Obama commercial featuring that picture of The Hug.

He's a smart kid; he remembered me saying a few days before, that the Obama campaign could save tons of money by just running commercials with 30 straight seconds of that picture.

4. I saw a commercial with it, too.
I'm in Ohio. We are getting bombarded from both sides.

This picture definitely runs in the "Don't Know Much" commercial when the lyrics say "...but if I could be JUST LIKE YOU, what a wonderful world this would be." It's hilarious.
