Hair-removal product gets political


An ad for the hair-removal product Veet takes advantage of the political moment, running an ad in an Australian paper with the headline "Goodbye Bush." I wonder how long the agency that created it has been holding onto the idea...

Back when Ann Richards was governor of Texas, one of her Democratic opponents circulated a rumor that she was a lesbian. It was a dirty trick in homophobic Texas but of course the gay community embraced it.

Then when George Bush ran against her, a t-shirt cropped up that said: "Ann can lick Bush."

Alas, had had it been true history would have been completely different.
