"This [photo-shop fakery] is not really that big of a deal, except as a metaphor for the Bush campaign's casual relationship to the truth."

“Appropriately titled “Whatever It Takes“, the new BC04 ad uses Bush’s convention acceptance speech, stirring music, and images of dedicated troops and families in the heartland.
