What a hoot! Michelle discovers that MorOn.org has done it again:
To illustrate how our US troops are “stuck in Iraq” (or should I spell that, “stuck in Irak?”), the MoveOn ad flashes this picture:
Does it look familiar? I recognized it immediately.
It’s the same freaking photo of British troops they used in an anti-war Thanksgiving ad two years ago.
(FYI, I’ve captured the video in case they try to hide their abject stupidity.) As bloggers pointed out in 2005, MoveOn had actually photoshopped the original pic to hide the fact that one of the soldiers was wearing shorts.
Look at the camo. Those are British pattern fatigues, not American.
How many thousands of American troops in Iraq—and they can’t find one? Here’s a hint, MorOns, the American soldiers don’t say “luv”, “mate”, or “apples and pears”.

Uh, british soldiers don’t say “mate” either. That would be australian.

Uh, that would be incorrect. Don’t know any British soldiers, but plenty of Brits I know say mate. So unless it’s drilled out of them in basic training…
