Whatever It Takes.... For Bush To Win


Bush's latest campaign ad, Whatever It Takes, is yet another example of the deception and lying rampant in the GOP over the past 4 years. If you look closely at the scene with the soldiers making up the audience, you can clearly see how the editors of the film photoshopped a handful of soldiers and cloned them repeatedly until they composed a large audience. As Kerry campaign senior adviser Joe Lockhart said today:

"Now we know why this ad is named `Whatever it Takes.' This administration has always had a problem telling the truth from Iraq to jobs to health care. The Bush campaign's advertising has been consistently dishonest in what they say. But today, it's been exposed for being dishonest about what we see.

"If they won't tell the truth in an ad, they won't tell the truth about anything else. This doctored commercial is fundamentally dishonest and insults the intelligence of the American people. The Bush campaign has no choice but to take this ad down immediately and issue an apology for its latest attempt to mislead the American people."
