Switching gears, for all of you that were so incensed by those "they'll take your Bibles" flyers, are you equally incensed by this:
- Democrats in a race for a state House seat in District 82, are circulating a flyer that shows a retarded child with President Bush’s face running in a track race. The headline says: “Voting for Bush Is Like Running In The Special Olympics: Even If You Win, You’re Still Retarded.”... the flyers have been distributed for at least two weeks from Fitzhugh’s campaign office in Ripley, Tennessee. It also serves as the Kerry-Edwards headquarters.

Not really, because that flyer is a childish insult, not a lie about policy positions used as a scare tactic. Hell, Chinaski's used that same "joke" here on the PB. So, no, I'm neither "equally incensed" nor "incensed."

P.S. Plus, the flyer makes the author look like an idiot -- not Bush -- and are hardly likely to sway even a single undecided voter. The public humiliation and firing to come wil be more than enough "justice."
