Classy political ad

A couple of nurses' unions are running an ad campaign that says it's too bad Dick Cheney isn't dead.

They say it a little differently, but that's the secondary message, at least.

The ad, which appeared in several newspapers today, starts with a Times clip headlined "Cheney Treated in Hospital For an Irregular Heartbeat." And the big follow-up line to that is: "If he were anyone else, he'd probably be dead by now."

Technically, I suppose, this would be called Cheney Derangement Syndrome, but I'm putting it in the BDS category, anyway.
