Bush/Newsmax using hint of PORN to garner support?
From my e-mail spam box. Notice the marked mail's format compared to that above and beneath it.

1. That's an interesting turnaround
Usually, spammers try to impersonate a legitimate organization to get your attention. Bush is impersonating a hot & horny babe named Amber!

4. Yep, sorry to say, the Republicans are rearing their hypocritical heads
here.

I just rented a (ahem!) porn video, and before the flick began, there were shots of an American Flag with the caption "These Colors Don't Run" in amongst the previews and FBI warnings. I pressed stop and rewound the thing and returned it immediately to the store. Ain't nothin' like some republican propaganda to getcha in the mood!

Plus, what would "Statue Dresser" Ashcroft have to say about this?

5. Despite Democrat hopes???
before long we will see "mainstream" Repukes say flat out that the Democrats want Americans attacked. These people are just sick.

7. I got the same message
surrounded by porn messages.

I wonder if one of them will have incriminating pictures of John Ashcroft with his barnyard 'companions'

12. That picture of Bush is hysterical
He looks like one of those fantasy sequences when a sit-com character's grandma up in heaven is talking to them.

If one of those e-mails from the Democratic candidates had their picture looking like this, I would think they had gone insane.

13. Love the ad text
"The major media are in attack mode - and have eroded the President's public support." Looks like the Iraqi Information Minister found a new job!

15. Come on. How ELSE are they supposed to reach out to Republicans?
I'd bet sending out porn spam is the best way to contact a lot of Republicans....

16. One of my coworkers is getting spammed by Bush.
He would never support him and never has. But he is getting email with links to his official site. I have double checked everything since I am an IT guru. They are really going to his site. :argh:
