Ads' use of 9/11 upsets families

Bush's latest round of ads has many Sept. 11 victim's families seeing red...

Read here from the Miami Herald. At BBC there is also a real audio video of the ad available. The ads upset firefighters, victims' families.

Karen Hughes, a Bush campaign advisor and confidant to the president, said on ABC's Good Morning America that the ad is a ``tastefully done reminder of our shared experience and what we have all been through as a nation.''

''It would be somewhat out of touch to ignore the reality of that day and how it forever changed our nation's policy,'' Hughes said.

Some firefighters saw it differently.

''I find it disgraceful and disgusting that they are going to use these images,'' said Harold Schaitberger, general president of the 265,000-member union. ``They [the White House] have failed firefighters for the last two and a half years.''

Burke, whose brother died in the attacks, said he wouldn't have minded Bush using the imagery if the president hadn't obstructed an independent commission that is investigating the attacks.

The entire campaign is available at Bushs own website.
