Bush Admin Now Cloning Soldiers?

B. John 248 Views

Vice President Cheney says John Kerry will "say and do anything to get elected," but it is the Bush campaign which has come under fire for doctoring a photograph used in a television commercial to make it look like there were more soldiers in a crowd cheering for the president. Either that, or the Army is engaged in some super secret cloning experiements. Aides now admit that "A group of soldiers in the crowd was electronically copied to fill in the space where the president and the podium had been." As usual, senior campaign officials declined responsibility for the move, blaming it on an anonymous "video editor."
