This is a screencap from the TV Spot Whatever it takes

Larger Pic

It seems that there were not enough soldiers to make the pics look cool. and what do you do if the facts don't look as good as you want them to be?
this pic is indeed a nice metaphor

You think they could at least do a better job of it. I mean c'mon they aren't even trying anymore.

Well considering this is a screen cap from a TV comercial, it probably was never meant to be viewed for more than half a second or so. You would'nt expect the sheep to notice that.

This could solve the re-enlistment problem

So now sheep are watching TV? What is the world coming to?

Actually, there IS a good reason for that.

Where those cloned soldiers are, they took an image of Bush at a podium out of the screen. They needed to fill the space with something, so they photoshopped them in there. Nothing insidious really, just editing out Bush for a good shot.

See?

Why, when they don't have to?

Thanks for the non-partisan post, Superbelt.

Only by approaching politics with honesty and common sense can we hope to turn the quagmire that it has become around.

Having interned with a political media consulting company, I can say that photoshoping stills going into ads is a fairly common thing to do.

Hmmm is this anything like when Bush's pre-arrival team pasted "Made in the USA" on imported boxes at a factory Bush was to stop at?
