Actually, Broder has a point on this one
FDR wrapped himself in the flag. Granting Bush the same legitimacy as FDR for the moment, the rest of what Broder has to say is interesting:
I think Broder's right. And we could start with asking why nothing is said about conserving oil—especially since world production has peaked, according to the Hubbert Curve methodology (back here).
Far better than criticizing his ads, ask why Bush is not calling on comfortable Americans to make any sacrifices for the war effort and why he refuses to raise the revenue to pay for what he calls a life-and-death struggle.
Those are the legitimate issues.
