TPM: Campaign Epilogue: A Roundup Of 9/11 Exploitation By The GOP And Its Allies
Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 08:04 PM by Hardhead
As the midterm elections enter their final hours, we're presenting here a montage of this campaign's most memorable visual examples of the exploitation of 9/11 by the GOP and its allies. These images constitute a kind of campaign epilogue. Because if the GOP loses its majority tomorrow, it may in part be because the party's ability to harnass 9/11 -- to exploit 9/11's emotional power to to propel the story the party's been trying to tell from President Bush's choreographed bullhorn moment atop the smoking rubble right on up through his most recent speeches -- has finally run out of steam for good.

They feature an ad "Produced by Dick Morris and airing on Fox: it plays a recording of Islamic terrorists discussing an attack by phone -- then interrupts the call, and says: "This terrorist wiretap has been interrupted by a Democrat controlled Congress."

Have I ever mentioned that sucking on a hooker's toes was the most honorable thing Dick Morris ever did in his life? That was the least objectionable, least offensive thing he's ever done, because it's all downhill from there. Dick Morris is a parasite on the human species. A toe fungus, if you will.
