Democrats pulled an Internet ad that showed flag-draped coffins after Republicans and at least two Democrats demanded it be taken down on grounds the image was insensitive and not fit for a political commercial.  The ad can still be seen on my blog under the post of "DCCC Video That All Republicans Are Griping Over".  The ad displays an array of images, including war scenes, pollution and breached levees as well as a photograph of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay in a police mug shot.  The campaign committee replaced the ad with a radio commercial that targets Rep. John Hostetler, R-Ind., for opposing an increase in the minimum wage.  Democrats had featured the video ad for nearly two weeks on the DCCC Web site where it had gone largely unnoticed until Republicans began objecting to it this week.

I still say the ad should have not been taken off the website.  As I said before, the reason the Republicans are taking offense to it is because it portrays the Republican party for what they actually are.  Now with Newt Gengrich (R-Ga.) wanting to enter "WWIII", unfortunately there will be more of those sad flag-draped images to see.
