Coakley's Bad Taste Reaches *Epic* New Heights (9/11 Commercial Snafu Alert)
National Review ^ | 1/15/2010 | Daniel Foster

Posted on 01/15/2010 9:48:40 AM PST by goldstategop

What do Osama bin Laden and the Coakley camp have in common? No, seriously. They both seem to view the World Trade Center as a symbol for capitalist greed and corruption.

Coakley ad uses World Trade Center


Here is NRSC spokesman Brian Walsh on the use of the image:

“Using the image of a site where over 2,700 Americans died in a terrorist attack to distort Scott Brown’s position on regulating Wall Street is both distasteful and disrespectful. Martha Coakley should immediately renounce this ad and call for it to be removed from the airwaves," he said.

Meanwhile a DSCC spokesman is saying the image shouldn't have appeared in the ad and that it is being pulled.

What a moron. Making a tasteless 9/11 commercial. Martha Coakley is the worst Democratic candidate in Massachusetts' history.

So with this ad, is Croakly trying to say she was “for” the 9/11 attacks to end greed and corruption?

Well between this and MassachusettEs, that’s what you get when you hire union help. No fact checking, shoddy work, and probably finished in a rush so they could take their law-mandated break.

The old broad hates the Red Sox, their fans and Catholics. Massachusetts deserves better. The country deserves better. Democrats should repent from allowing Coakley to run for the Senate.

Oh my gosh.

This commercial, the “Catholics shouldn’t work in the ER” comment, the shoving, and that’s just this week!

If this moron still manages to win we really are doomed.

Considering that the two flights that took down the towers came out of Boston, with Boston residents onboard, this woman is not only evil but doesn’t even care about her own constituency.

I still think that would have been the best memorial.

Coakley knows she has lost independents big-time. Her ONLY hope in the last 3 days is to frighten and motivate the left-wing loons and get them out to vote en masse. That’s what this is about.

When have you ever seen them "rush?"
