The current talk of using nuclear bunker busters in Iran reminded me of this commercial from the 1964 presidential race, when LBJ was running against uber-hawk Goldwater.
Rather than hollow me-tooism, this is how LBJ framed those eager to use our nuclear arsenal.

Another on nukes,
MERELY ANOTHER WEAPON?
Some of the outside groups might have done stuff this good, but most of the candidates including Kerry seemed to be in a contest to see whose commercials could be more bland, inoffensive, and forgetable.
People still talk about this one. What the hell happened? Are all the current Democratic consultants fifth columnists or retarded?
