I laughed my ass off when the Freepers said those would be great for *'s ads. That could very well be this year's Dukakis in a tank.

4. Those dolls with him in a flight suit are a collectors items
selling for about 4 cents each. People buy them to put under the tires of their cars.

3. I think he should use that image that obviously is laughable and false.
and I think he should also use Bush's denial and putting the blame on the navy troops for hoisting that banner.\

That would be powerful. That is what will impact upon the Americans who do not have the time to do anything but read headlines


I would go for it.

The networks own that. And you know FAUX news got the best camera angles.

edit: Hey, my 400th! I miss them every time.

6. probably not
The GOP would do it in a heartbeat and get away with it -- no backlash. But the non-existant "liberal media" would immediately label it a cheap shot.

7. I would. Hell yes I would.
All you have to show is that image. Let the republicans bitch, if it isn't about that it would be about something else. If I were Kerry I would at least give them something to bitch about that hurt them at the same time.
