How the Dems Support the Troops

Remember that photo at the top of The Democratic Party’s page, of a crowd of people cheering and pumping their fists? The theme is that only the Democrats really support the troops, and this is the page where they previously featured an altered stock image of a Canadian soldier.

Well, the irony doesn’t stop there, because that crowd photo doesn’t even show a real group of people genuinely supporting the US military. It’s another stock image. (Hat tip: Raymond.)

Note the keywords. Several other bloggers have remarked that the crowd picture seemed oddly out of sync with the page’s theme—now we see why.
