Poll question: What does it say about the GOP that a photo of a school ...
... was used as a backdrop during the acceptance speech for their presidential nominee?

It's all over the tubes today: a photo of Walter Reed Middle School instead of (presumably) Walter Reed Medical Center <http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=3931686&mesg_id=3931686> was shown behind Admiral McCombover while he droned on and one about pancakes or something.

So, what does this say about the GOP?

Please note: your other choice that is usually at the bottom, is actually the fifth choice.

1. It means that affirmative action works for the factually challenged ...
thus, there are plenty of jobs for them at Faux, and starting into the other cable news networks ...

2. It means all of the above
plus the fact that politics and government are nothing more than photo ops to get elected so that they can further get rich off the backs of working people.

3. Bonus Question... how many know
who Walter Reed was? And why is the hospital named after him?

5. If no one knows, they can look it up.
Provided they look up the correct Walter Reed and not some random person whose name is a homonym.

4. In the GOP, ignorance is regarded as a virtue.
After all, only the strength of one's FAITH can withstand facts!

7. Plus they think they can take what they want, pictures, music, our
houses, jobs, retirement plans and Social Security. The sad part is that they own so much of the justice system that they may well be right.
