I was browsing allrecipes.com today, looking for some good butter roll/croissant recipes to veganize, when I noticed the first lady (should that be capitalized?) looking at me. The Bush-Cheney team has bought internet ads on allrecipes.com. And the ad doesn't feature Bush or Cheney.

The ad went like this: Pic of the First Lady, and to the left were a series of statements that came up:

1) I think education is important
2) So does the President
3) Let me tell you why...

At the bottom of the page was the Bush/Cheney logo, and you would (presumably) get to the Bush-Cheney page by clicking on it.

I find it weird that there would be a presidential ad on a recipes site. And not only that, but the ad doesn't even feature the people up for election, and only in passing mentions them. Is that a good strategy? I mean, the First Lady is not an elected or paid position, and she wields no power. Is Bush/Cheney trying to take the attention off themselves or something? Something about this just seems fishy...
