NYTimes: "The spot is effective as an emotional jolt to those for whom the attacks have begun to fade, reminding them of Mr. Bush's leadership."
Dawkins writes:
A description of Bush's new campaign ad, "Tested," from the New York Times:
I see. For "those for whom the attacks have begun to fade," the ad will remind them of "Mr. Bush's leadership." It would then seem that those for whom the attacks have not begun to fade need no such reminding of "Mr. Bush's leadership." Consequently, all have been reminded of, or are already fully aware of, "Mr. Bush's leadership."
And so:
9/11 + black man and daughter hoist a flag + children run on the lawn of a church + firefighters =
Total cognizance of "Mr. Bush's leadership."

A description of Bush's new campaign ad, "Tested," from the New York Times:
The spot opens with Mr. Bush strolling along the corridor abutting the Rose Garden. There is a slightly obscured shot of a child in silhouette leaning against the door of a dark room. The screen remains in black and white as it shows a girl looking up at the camera resolutely, a squat suburban house flying an American flag, an older white man outdoors, looking sideways thoughtfully. The first burst of color comes when the spot shows the American flag flying before the outer shell of the World Trade Center. The screen comes to full color after a black man and his daughter hoist a flag. Then we see children: running in a schoolyard, pledging allegiance in a schoolroom, running on the lawn of a white church. Toward the end parents hold their baby in the air, and two firefighters, one black, one white, sit on an engine. The spot closes with a montage of Mr. Bush and his wife.Concludes the Times' Jim Rutenberg: "The spot is effective as an emotional jolt to those for whom the attacks have begun to fade, reminding them of Mr. Bush's leadership."
