The Bush campaign doctored a photo to put in to Bush's backdrop soldiers where a podium had been.  That's too easy to criticize.

The more intriguing part is the statement from the person who heads Bush's ad team.

Mark McKinnon accepted the blame. "Everyone technically works for me so I accept the responsibility."

Maybe his boss might learn something from Mr. McKinnon?  Some little thing that Harry Truman made famous?
