Image:
Bush pedaling down dirt road on a dirt bike. Cut to: Close up of a rock. Cut
to: Bush flying threw the air.
Announcer: "In which direction would George Bush lead? Will it be the way
that he's led so far: unwavering in his support for special interests,
heedless and mindless of the hazards ahead? Flip-flopping like mad on the
bicycle of state? He supported tax cuts for the wealthy in 2000 because of
large government surpluses, but once in power he supported them because the
expanding economy which he inherited now needed stimulation. He invaded Iraq
to end Baghdad's WMD program and links to international terrorism, then
decided the real reason was to bring democracy to the middle-east.
Image: Bush gets up, rubs his butt, and
climbs back on the bicycle. Cut to: Another rock.
Announcer: He can't
even remember a fellow by the name of Osama bin Laden, preferring to go
after easier targets instead.

Announcer: Can we really afford another four years of a leader so rigid that
he's constantly falling down on the job? It's time to change
course to something a little safer.
Image: Yet another rock. Cut to: Bruised
Bush.
Announcer: John Kerry. At least he can
stay on a friggin bicycle. |
