Update 03/03/04 Some families of the September 11 attacks are objecting to Bush-Cheney 2004 ads that use images from the assaults in New York City. "It's a slap in the face of the murders of 3,000 people," Monica Gabrielle, whose husband died in the twin towers, told the New York Daily News for its Thursday editions. "It is unconscionable." Two of the spots show the destruction at the World Trade Center and include an American flag flying amid the debris. They also feature images of firefighters working through the wreckage. "It's as sick as people who stole things out of the place," said Firefighter Tommy Fee of Queens Rescue Squad 270. "The image of firefighters at ground zero should not be used for this stuff, for politics." Dave's opinion: One image is of a flag draped coffin. How Hippocratical can Bush be ! Why doesn't he show the flag draped coffins of all the soldiers he has killed in Irag. Oh yes, he doesn't allow any pictures of them ! I found one today, April 14, 2004, and its very sad - - -Rachel Witmer (L) and Charity Witmer hug a mourner at a visitation for their sister Michelle Witmer at Elm Brook Church in Brookfield, Wisconsin April 14, 2004.
