Bush-Cheney 04 has finally hit rock bottom: they are sending out anti-Kerry mailings using images of the burning World Trade Center:
On the front side, the ad asks in red print, "How Can John Kerry Lead America In A Time of War?" It adds three subsequent lines, "Kerry: Changing Positions," "Kerry: Cutting Defense" and "Kerry: Slashing Intelligence."
Following that, there are nine images of the front pages of Sept. 12, 2001 newspapers (shown below), all of which display the smoking towers of the World Trade Center before they collapsed, killing some 2,600 people. One includes the approach of the plane.
While the Bush-Cheney campaign has routinely used 9/11 as a keystone of their campaign, these are the first print advertisements this site is aware of which actually display multiple images of the burning twin towers. The ad states that it was paid for by the Republican National Committee, with the approval of Bush-Cheney ‘04.
But Mr. President, I thought you said:
I have no ambition whatsoever to use [the 9/11 attacks] as a political issue.
President George W. Bush
Notice the words printed on the flier,
Paid for by the Republican National Committee and Authorized by Bush-Cheney '04, Inc.
So this flier comes right from BC04 HQ. Have no decency, Mr. President?
