1. the spot with the dupes is where bush was pre-photoshop

and with all the REAL scandals of this admin, why is this a big deal?

[UpsideDownFlag]

2. because 'normal' people can understand it.

show this pic to your pubby friends. ask them to defend bush on something as simple as this.

4. Because the "people"

don't give a shit about issues. If they did, Kerry would be leading by 60 points.

3. CNN did a scathing opinion piece on this yesterday.....

Anderson Cooper really slammed it.....

5. This trick was used after the "Fall of Bagdad"

Remember that HUGE crowd that assembled to pull down the statue of their hated dictator, and even though there were so darned many of them, they needed help from US troops?

A photo of the crowd appeared on the front page of a British newspaper, and someone immediately noticed that it had been photoshopped to look much larger than it really was. Also -- members of the "spontaneous corwd" turned out to be member's of Chalabi's entourage.

But what does the truth matter when God is giving the orders?

7. Well they re not signing up like the govt. wants so----------

We will make our own men. This is Plan A

8. This one isn't that big a deal as far as I could tell

because all they did was remove W from the picture. There were troops there where he was blocking them, so what's the difference.

It's only bad news if they were trying to cover something embarassing, which you could argue that W is at this point.

9. just saw the ad on cnn

I thought that bushco. said they were taking the ad off and were not airing it w/the doctored photo, but that the doctored photo would be removed and the ad would continue to play? that is what I got from cnn last night.
