the most effective ad ever, curiously though this is a kind of anti-nuclear war ad. it only aired once and was pointed at goldwater mostly because goldwater was advocating using nuclear weapons to end the vietnam war. cheney/rove/bush cite this mushroom cloud so much it sickens.

yeah, i figured you'd like this one, t.c.

i considered posting a little context about this one (goldwater, nukes, lack of air time, etc.) but i thought it was more interesting by itself.

a nice reminder that histrionic manipulation isn't a recent invention.
