Slate has posted a review of the new Bush campaign ads. To me, Bush’s use of the images from 9/11, particularly of the flag draped coffin of a firefighter, are revolting. This is a man who has refused to cooperate with the 9/11 commission investigating the attacks. This is a man whose administration has barred journalists from photographing the coffins of American soldiers who were killed following his orders abroad. People know that Bush was the President when we were attacked, and they know how they feel about his leadership since the attack. He oughtn’t wallow in it.
