novapsycheSome 9/11 families ask Bush to yank ads
I'm lucky enough to live in Michigan (the state 2nd in the nation in jobs lost during Bush's presidency), so I get to see these ads. Rather, I'm exposed to these ads. I feel intruded upon when they air.
I don't view them as commercials. They drip of propaganda. Especially when the clip of the devastated tower superimposed with a rippling American flag comes on the screen.
Unfortunately, the MoveOn.org ad that's running against it isn't much better. It ends, "George Bush: He's not on your side."
I think of the year ahead and I shake my head.
