Ohhh, this is rich!

Bret Shundler is one of the Republicans running for governor in New Jersey. His website had this:



Wow, what an enthusiastic crowd! People must be really jazzed about Schundler and all!

Except, wait a second...

1. Yep, it's on the Homepage too.... n/t

[Oilwellian]

8. Oh geesh...

I even did a search. :D

[The Doctor.]

12. I've done it too.

It's still good to get more attention.

Do you know where that photo was taken? (With Dean)

These people should be told that their images were used for something they may not endorse.

[AlCzervik]

2. omg, Hilarious!

[The Gunslinger]

3. BUSTED!!!! LMAO nt

[dsc]

4. That is unbelievable

I really hope he gets raked over the coals for this.

[The Doctor.]

10. Unlikely.

Not enough people pay attention and 'Repugs' won't care if their guy did a little 'creative marketing'.

Forget that he stole the images of Dean Supporters for his own use.

Now Wait... Just... One... Minute...

If those people knew their images were being used to endorse someone they didn't support.... hmmmmm.

[MissWaverly]

18. I thought people had to sign a release for their photos to be used

obiviously Dean supporters are not going to be rallying for the GOP

[doublethink]

26. Actually if it's a publicly held event ......

no release is needed. Hence Howard didn't need anyones signature to use this picture for his purposes. That being said .... using these peoples images ..... FRAUDULENTLY is another matter which this Repub could be taken to court for, bigtime. Peace. :)

[The Doctor.]

28. I believe that when exposure is assumed

one needn't sign a waver.

But these people were exposed at a DEAN event, it is therefore safe to assume assent and support for DEAN.

But not for jackass.


I have little doubt that a case could be made that he used their images to support a cause they wouldn't agree with.

It'd be like using a smiling picture of Bush giving the thumbs up in an Al-Qaeda recruiting video.

Oh yeah... they do that anyway.

6. I trust you've notifiied the authorities?

What's the big newspaper in Trenton?

[nadinbrzezinski]

7. fake followers too?

[Cha]

9. Well, if the New Jersey repukes

are gonna steal a crowd..a Dean Crowd would be the one to lift.

These bums are too much ..throw them out!

[Eric J in MN]

11. The biggest FAKE in that ad isn't the crowd.

It's the word "reform" being used by a Republican who just wants to "reform" the taxes of the rich by lowering them.

[Atman]

13. Have you sent this to NJ teevee stations yet?

Well?

15. lol....send it to Dean's people.

[DawnneOBTS]

16. What an asshole...

no good bastard..did anyone send it to the Star-Ledger yet? How about the Press (of Atlantic City)? THIS HAS TO BE DONE. Howard Dean should know, too. They are going to love this. Especially after Monday's events. BTW, I want to take all of the signs down too, no matter what the hell I have to do.

[Booster]

17. Who does this kind of shit? I just can't imagine someone who

knows anything about how many people have computers think SOMEBODY isn't going to bust them on this kind of thing. By the way, you people who do catch these kind of things are absolutely amazing.

[FreedomAngel82]

24. I know who

A loser who doesn't have any followers and he's desperate to get votes so he can be in with the elite clique. What a dork and an asshole. I hope DFA is aware of this and can take action.

[tabasco]

32. Criminals.

It's a good thing that most criminals are stupid so that most of them get caught.

[hootinholler]

20. Now why

would Dr Dean have himself photoshopped into a repug ad like that?

Oh, nevermind

:evilgrin:

-Hoot

[evlbstrd]

21. It's not even a good Photoshop job.

Ol' Bret just floats in front at a wierd angle, and the lighting is totally different. Fire your graphic artist. And yourself.

[ultraist]

25. If I were one of those Deaniacs, I'd be PISSED!

Have you emailed this to DFA? I'd love to hear Dean joke about this one! LMAO!

[AspenRose]

27. That made my night

Typical republicans...can't come up with anything good on their own, they have to steal it and reframe it....

[NightOwwl]

30. Don't these idiots now by know....

You can't get away with stuff like this on the internets!
