False advertising???

Have any of you seen similar ads in your area?

False advertising

And now for another point. Did any of you read all of the article? This is from nearly the end:

Quote:
But the state justices disagreed, citing a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that said the government may ban commercial messages "more likely to deceive the public than to inform it."
Could this be used to ban political ads that are "more likely to deceive the public than to inform it"?

(PLEASE????)

Q) Why do they bury lawyers 60 feet deep instead of 6?

A) Because down deep, even a lawyer is a nice guy.

I've had similar disagreements with other ads up here, Young drivers is one.

"There are no accidents accidents, they are collisions both predictable and avoidable. With our training," etc......

Luckily the "ambulance chasers" haven't truely invaded our TV here yet, but I can see the # growing.

I really don't like lawyers..... the only reason we need lawyers is because of other lawyers.
