The GOP denied that this was a subliminal. They didn’t, however, say whether they intentionally put the word RATS in there, intending for people to see it (more like a pun) or whether it was an accident of the way the words fly into the screen. The latter I don’t buy for a second… the former… well these are the people who use sledgehammers to kill flies — like commercials of atomic bombs going off, tied to a political opponent. So it’s possible.

I was talking to somebody about this and they said, “But aren’t subliminals illegal?” I don’t know the laws, but I’d love to know their definition of “subliminal.”
