McCain Not Ready To Spell On Day One

Yesterday, the McCain campaign released an online advertisement that responded to Sen. Barack Obama’s (D-IL) criticism of its tax policy as “making a virtue of selfishness.” The ad — which featured a yellowed picture of a scowling Obama — misspelled the word “virtue.” Here is a screenshot of the “virture” ad:

    I think it’s a play on subliminal messaging. Virture = vulture

    Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this website. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and appearance. I must say that you’ve done a awesome job with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Firefox. Outstanding Blog!
