WTF Is It Now?!?

CNN's American Morning gets letters
Correspondent Jack Cafferty, on the Golfing Goober using 9/11 in his ads: "The question is, is it appropriate to use these images of September 11 in political ads? Here are some of the letters we've gotten. We've gotten a lot of response."

Oleg writes: "If it's appropriate for the Bush campaign to use September 11 images in their videos, it should be appropriate for the Kerry campaign to use the images of injured or killed American soldiers in Iraq."

Tony writes: "The president's use of ground zero images is a classic example of waving the bloody shirt tactic that was first used by Republicans after the Civil War. It's tasteless and tacky."

Pamela in Pinckney, Michigan: "The only thing Bush did right for five brief moments was right after September 11. It's the only thing he can run on. It's cheap to exploit the loss and despair for political gain, but then again, we're talking about Bush."

Rob in Fort White, Florida: "It's counterproductive for Bush because it reminds everyone of who let it happen in the first place and how he spent hours after the attacks flying around in circles. He's still stonewalling the panel that's trying to find out what went wrong so we can stop it from happening again."

And, finally, George writes this, from Quebec: "Watched Karen Hughes on your show fumbling around with excuses for this tasteless promo. The wishes of the surviving victims must be respected and I expect the ad will be pulled posthaste."
