Do the commercials for the silver quarters make anyone else sick?

[CornField]

Here in Iowa they're playing the damn things all the time... "silver, recovered from ground zero..." You can own a piece... "We will never forget" ... for a limited time, only $29.95...

2. Gawd, I saw that vileness today

Talk about making a profit on the backs of the dead! But, people will buy the tripe. Repulsive!

[Skip Intro]

3. I'm just surprised that the * campaign isn't using them for fundraising

And yeah, they do make me sick.

Anything for a buck.

I change the channel, something I find myself doing quite often these days.

6. Lewis Black did a bit on these on The Daily Show

"THANK GOD THEY SAVED THE SILVER!!!

Essentially, he said that America had moved through the other stages of grief -- denial, anger, acceptance -- and moved on to the final stage of grief that is unique to America: EXPLOITATION.

The coins are horribly crass. I want to wretch every time I see that commercial come on TV.

[Mick Knox]

7. yes - disgusting, vile.

[Skittles]

8. absolutely yes

9. Do they come with a teddy bear dressed like a cop?

What could be better than to have your very own "Freedom Tower" silver coin, lovingly cradled in the arms of a majik 9-11 teddy bear....

[troublemaker]

10. Can the "freedom lampshade" be far behind?

[DrWeird]

11. They come with a free packet of freedom flavored kool-aid.

And a nice plastic keyboard cover to keep you from getting anthrax.
