While the New York Times has proven itself to be selective in it's reporting all the details about the war in Iraq, it seems to have no problem running attack ads on President Bush in regards to the same. As Bill O'Reilly reported on FOX News tonight, World Can't Wait's "next phase of the battle to drive out the Bush regime by placing a full page ad in the NY Times" ran on page A17 in the Times today
AfterDowningStreet.org reported O'Reilly's focus on the ad as well as the planned efforts to, "...'drown out' Bush's State of the Union address in January," which will consist of, "local actions as well as a national demonstration in Washington D.C. on the Saturday following the State of the Union Address."
The ad along with coordinated fliers make radical claims including the following:
"Your government, on the basis of outrageous lies, is waging a murderous and utterly illegitimate war in Iraq...
"Your government is moving each day closer to a theocracy, where a narrow and hateful brand of Christian fundamentalism will rule...
"People look at all this and think of Hitler — and they are right to do so. The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very quickly, in a fascist way, and for generations to come."
Among those whose signatures appear on the ad are Jane Fonda, Edward Asner, Martin Sheen, Ward Churchill, Cindy Sheehan, and NY State Senator Tom Duane, who seemed to have no problem including his name along with extremists who think America is evil.
