So, a hole below the pig’s tail?
Come on, say it loud, say it proud! If you look up the pig’s asshole, there . . . there is a picture of General Ulysses S. Grant! Or, if you insist on being more polite, alright, the pig’s anus.
I’d say this counts as a pretty nasty campaign ad. And I’ve never heard about this before.
—> this chapter in the book is about the 1964 Johnson campaign ad of a girl holding a daisy and a mushroom cloud at the end. The text at the end says, “Vote for President Johnson on November 3.” Implying that he’s a stable and responsible person, and by implication Senator Goldwater isn’t.
I’ve heard the expression “in a pig’s eye.” Don’t know if this is related.
I’m going to assume that since I’ve never heard about the 1868 campaign being particularly nasty, to some extent President Grant did laugh this off. But if Republicans in general go further in direction of laughing it off, can you envision a better Reconstruction and especially a Reconstruction which takes and has longer-lasting civil rights and voting rights?
