Examples of German Negative Political Adverts: No 1

I've been on a trawl of the blogosphere this afternoon. After all, there's bugger all else to do today is there? One new blog I've discovered is a German one called David's Medienkritik. It's in English (sorgen Sie sich nicht!) and gives a right of centre perspective on German politics and the media. In fact, it's so good it's inspired me to start a European Blog Links section (below right). I thought I'd share this poster with you, from the blog. The translation of the caption reads: SHE WOULD HAVE SENT SOLDIERS. So it's not just the Americans who know how to use negative advertising! And yes, I know it's from last September. It turns out that it caused such an outcry the poster was withdrawn. I am not sure what happened to Herr Schwanitz. Ist mir eigentlich egal. Ein Arschloch bleibt ein Arschloch.
