Democrats pull ad with flag-draped coffins
(AP) - Democrats pulled an Internet ad that showed flag-draped coffins Friday after Republicans and at least two Democrats demanded it be taken down on grounds the image was insensitive and not fit for a political commercial. “We’re moving to another major effort that we’re highlighting on our Web site,” DCCC spokesman Bill Burton said. (Yeah, sure, you betcha)
The ad also contained a photograph of Tom Delay doctored to look like a police mug shot (remember he was smiling in his real one.
You can still view it here as we knew that DemoRats would pull it or make it difficult to find.

Quite frankly,
Hi, I live in South Africa. You Americans amaze me. Your President, considered a big joke and an absolute moron in South Africa, appointed himself ruler of the Earth, upon invading Iraq.
Your current government, Democrats and Republicans, couldn’t organise a drunken party in a brewery with no locks on the barrels.
It is with much amusement that I observe your ‘internal political’ debates.
Having visited your country, I find you are a generous and knd people. However, you are spoiled rotten and live on your own planet.
It is with sadness that I watch your troops in Iraq get whacked every five minutes. Being sent into battle with little prior training on terrorist warfare, I find this quite tragic. Anyone with a brain could see what they were in for. Well in Africa we could certainly predict the outcome. A big mess.
No doubt your President will continue his attempt to re- arange the world.
Thank God Africa is known as the ‘lost’ continent.

Sorry we don’t live up to your expectations …. Pippa.
It is reassuring listening to a person such as yourself from such a bastion of safety and enlightenment such as Suid Afrika. Sorry we are not good neighbors of the world community. The rest of the world would be a bigger tragic mess than it is if not for the U.S.. Name calling of our President is typical of morons such as yourself (a description) who lack the intellect to take on the issues that need be. As for the prior terrorist training, you should know about that. South Africa is kind of a joke, a sad one, in the U.S. in the way that it’s just a step above Mugabe’s regime in safety and could eventually turn into the same.
Don’t hesitate coming back and trying to make a relevant point…
