11/2    California Uber Alles is such a great song
        \_ Yes, and it was written about Jerry Brown. I was thinking this
           as I cast my vote for Meg Whitman. I am independent, but I
           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I
           can't believe we elected this retread.

        How did Hillary manage to do that when we're also asking China to
        concede on the economic front at the same time?
         \_ China doesn't want NK to implode. NK is a buffer between SK and
            China, or in other words a large buffer between a strong US ally and

2/18    If not 0 then 1 - wasn't that the basis of the logic of the bush
        administration on torture?  If we do it, it's legal, and since
        torture is illegal, therefore we don't torture?
        \_ Bush is a great computer scientist.
           \_ He must be, given that he defeated the inventor of the Internet

web sites)'s campaign ac knowledged Thursday that it had doctored a photograph used in a televisi on commercial and said the ad will be re-edited and reshipped to TV stat ions. All Election Coverage The photo of Bush addressing a group of soldiers was edited to remove bot h the president and the podium where he was standing. A group of soldier s in the crowd was electronically copied to fill in the space, aides say . "There was no need to do that," said Mark McKinnon, head of Bush's advert ising team who shouldered the blame. "Everyone technically works for me so I accept the responsibility." The original photograph shows a sea of soldiers sitting behind the presid ent as he stands at a podium just left of the center of the frame. Democrats said it is fitting that Bush would fabricate an advertising ima ge. web sites) to jobs to health care," said Kerry spokesma n Joe Lockhart. "The Bush campaign's advertising has been consistently d ishonest in what they say. But today, it's been exposed for being dishon est about what we see. If they won't tell the truth in an ad, they won't tell the truth about anything else." McKinnon said a video editor he declined to identify was told to edit the picture to focus on a young boy waving a flag. On his own initiative, t he editor removed the podium and copied the faces, McKinnon said. "There was no intention on anybody's part to try to represent anything that wasn't true," McKinnon said The Bush campaign noted that Bush was addressing a large group of troops in both the original and edited version. "Bush is talking to the troops, the troops are real," said Bush spokesman Steve Schmidt said. He noted that the crowd the president was speaking to was much larger than depicted in the ad. The ad, released Wednesday, is an emotional appeal in which Bush defends his decision to go to war and empathizes with fallen soldiers and their families. The ad is running on national cable networks and in local media markets i n at least one state, Ohio.
