[hometext] => Relatives condemn Bush 9/11 ads
[bodytext] => Some relatives said the use of such pictures was distasteful. Relatives of victims killed in the 11 September 2001 attacks have criticised George W Bush for using images from the tragedy in his campaign advertisements. Some of the families have complained that the images exploit those killed in the attacks and are in poor taste. "It's totally disgusting," said Dawn Peterson, whose brother died in the attack on the World Trade Center. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3534533.stm BBC - Friday, 5 March, 2004 O/ The horror of 9/11 he has started to USE To frighten you, to bully and to confuse He‘ll use your grief and your fear To win out in this election year Now he only has one puny line Onward..., forward. All is fine. Now watch carefully his ev'ry move See what OTHER lies he can „PROVE“ He'll tell it all has a point And dying is worthwhile He‘s working night and day To give that SKULL a SMILE But WORST of all is that he‘ll use The ghost of 9/11 to confuse This disrespect is typical of Bush ploys He doesn't care what feelings he destroys And say he‘s made you safer? How?? Well, look in Iraq. Al-Qaeda... NOW! Are you going to fall for it?? One more time?? Well, it‘s not HIS life that‘s on the line He‘s going to give it this positive gloss To say it‘s all well worth the cost This man is SHAMELESS and USES the dead The relatives know it and they see red! Such a shameless coward to use what serves Throw him out. It's all he deserves...
