Why do we need an ad campaign to remind us about September 11?
There's a new ad campaign meant to apparently remind us that September 11 happened and was a really bad thing.
Where were you when you heard about Sept. 11 http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060830/ap_on_re_us/sept11_ads?



Unfortunately we live in a country and a society where the dead aren't just eulogized, they're propagandized.
You want an ad campaign? Here's an ad campaign:

3. I think that's from americablog.org
And is meant to be snarky.

Why create this ad campaign, oh, in an election year? I don't think I need to answer that for everyone around here.

Honestly, I think it will backfire. Probably won't even catch on.

2. This is sick.
Nothing this administration does should surprise me, but I can't believe they are making commericals asking where you were when it happened.

FUCK them! :nuke: :argh: :mad: :grr:

5. If you read the article there's a foundation collecting stories

and that's what they are advertising,
so I don't think it's such a big insult :hug:

On edit: I smiled at *your* satirical version of the ad, too.
