Music for America takes on Bush's WMD humor
Posted by Luke Francl, BushOut.tv

This is a little dated only because I've been lax in posting it (and posting in general...we're something like 7 ads behind right now). Music for America has a little video featuring Bush's Radio and Television Correspondent's Dinner jokes about not being able to find WMD in Iraq, as soldiers die there for his mistakes.

I agree with MFA that Bush's joke is in bad taste -- and the sound of the pliant DC press lapping it up is sickening -- but I actually think Bush's presentation is pretty funny. He's known to be a funny guy, if spiteful.

But what the fate of 527s should be is no easy question. And the dispute may not be resolved immediately – a good thing for Democrats and perhaps even the right decision. [Emphasis added. -v]
