Cynische, ademstollende video-clip. Jim Morrisson wordt gefusillieerd en daarna grove beelden van de Vietnam-oorlog.
Ik ben benieuwd wat Rockerduck ervan vindt.

This is an ad from the 2004 election endorsing John Frusciante as president... too bad the campaign didn't take off more...

Rockerduck schreef:'The lesser of 2 evils... or the evil of 2 lesser?' is leuk gevonden, dat moet ik ze meegeven. Verder is deze clip natuurlijk nog veel te soft om voor presidents-reclame door te gaan. Iedereen die ooit een beetje een Amerikaanse presidentscampagne heeft gevolgd, weet dat je het met dit soort morele boodschappen en beelden niet redt.

Ik vond trouwens de muziek in de clip heel storend. Steeds maar weer datzelfde zinnetje en datzelfde akkoordje. Dat gaat irriteren.
THE PRESIDENT: You know, I've heard this theory about everything was just fine until we arrived, and kind of "we're going to stir up the hornet's nest" theory. It just doesn't hold water, as far as I'm concerned. The terrorists attacked us and killed 3,000 of our citizens before we started the freedom agenda in the Middle East.
Q What did Iraq have to do with that?
THE PRESIDENT: What did Iraq have to do with what?
Q The attack on the World Trade Center?
THE PRESIDENT: Nothing.
Nothing, except for it's part of - and nobody has ever suggested in this administration that Saddam Hussein ordered the attack. Iraq was a - the lesson of September the 11th is, take threats before they fully materialize, Ken. Nobody has ever suggested that the attacks of September the 11th were ordered by Iraq.
I have suggested, however, that resentment and the lack of hope create the breeding grounds for terrorists who are willing to use suiciders to kill to achieve an objective. I have made that case.
It is three years after the war and the situation in Iraq has visibly deteriorated. Immediately after the war, cities like Baghdad were burned and looted and under occupation, but there was still a hope that buildings could be rebuilt and Iraq could be put back together. I think as the months go by with no visible progress, especially in the areas of security and infrastructure, Iraqis feel less and less hopeful. -- Iraqi blogger "Riverbend"
On his way to vacation at his parents' compound in Kennebunkport, George W. Bush stopped at a local elementary school Thursday to meet with family members of U.S. troops who have lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan. After the meetings ended, Hildi Halley, whose husband died in Afghanistan in June, said she told the president that it's "time to stop the bleeding" and "swallow our pride and find a solution."
Bush's response? Halley said the president told her that "there was no point in us having a philosophical discussion about the pros and cons of the war."
