1. Don't you mean DemocratIC ad?
(Not including the "IC" at the end is considered an insult to many Democratic Party members.)

The ad is great. I think the ones with no words spoken, just music, sometimes catch more attention. The numbers are startling and infuriating and saddening—all at the same time.

3. Thanks. It was probably just a typo by the person who posted it at YT.
Every time I see it or hear it that way, it reminds me of * and his speechifying where he intentionally pronounces it that way just to be insulting.

I know it's a little thing in the big scheme of things, but it just annoys the hell out of me.

5. I think DEMOCRATIC representatives should reply with 'my REPUBLIC colleague' snark
every time they pull that shit, and do it with a real SNEER.

Hell, even nitwit REPORTERS are picking up on it. If we let it stand, it WILL stand. And that's bullshit.

8. I always call them the 'Republic' party. When they stop that juvenile BS, I'll stop.
We can bring it into the vernacular by using it LIBERALLY.

7. You are probably correct in posting it as it was listed at YT,
I didn't catch the spelling when I watched the video.

Sometimes I go back to posts I've made and find spelling errors, and I kind of wish someone had pointed them out to me because I usually can't go back and edit them by the time I discover them. Sometimes my fingers and faster than my mind.

Unfortunately, the death tally in the video will be obsolete in a few hours, if it isn't already.

4. A small criticism:
The ad uses the word "casualties" when it should have used "deaths". Casualties include dead and wounded.

In the case of this war casualties include more than the dead and wounded.
