Putin v. Goldwater

Have you seen the latest "bogeyman" magazine cover?


Seeing this reminded me of the "Daisy" campaign ad run on the behalf of LBJ in 1964:

Both are based upon lies and the fear of nuclear war.


Did LBJ make the world a safer place, or did he exacerbate the Vietnam War and give us over 50,000 dead and many more wounded?


Is Putin a threat to world peace, or are NetanYahoo and Obama ad-Dajjal the greater threats?


Do magazine covers and ads like this help the public decide the best course of action, or are they intended to herd us into a corner and authorize another senseless war?
