Progress for America [sic] has launched an ad named “Courage” advocating Bush’s Social Security “reform” plans. This outrageous piece of spin opens with footage of FDR signing in Social Security.
According to a post to the Daily Kos, James Roosevelt Jr. (FDR’s grandson) wrote a letter condemning the ad.
Yesterday, someone on the Kos asked where the Democratic Ad was. I offered mine, reprinted here:
Bush: They gotta be somewhere
[a clip of him referring to the WMD to the National Press Corp]
Bush: Next!
[a clip of him taking questions at a press conference]
Bush: Social Security will go flat bust
[a clip of him from recent speeches]
Rocky (the Flying Squirrel): Not that old trick again
[to Bullwinkle, the Moose as he attempts to pull a rabbit from a hat]
AND/OR
Groucho Marx: Who are you gonna believe, me or your own eyes?
Bush: You can fool some of the people...
[a clip of his mangled speech]
It saddens me so... that $40 million or more taxpayer dollars will be spent this week for a ceremony that will allow this great nation to continue on (IMHO) so many misguided paths.
