The McCain ad which falsely accuses Obama of wanting to raise taxes, displays the lettering "HANG" above Obama's head in the ad. Details & image below.

Updated with video!

Here's the image:

But the way the ad runs, there's a dark shadow through most of the "C", and the "E" at the end of the word.

Take out those two letters, and you have a new word right above Barack Obama's head.

We asked the McCain campaign about the image. Their response: "We're not even validating such an outrageous and preposterous claim with a comment."

Is this a coincidence? People spend hours and hours editing political ads, I really don't see how this could go unnoticed by the editors. Maybe they saw it and thought it wasn't noticeable or maybe they thought it wasn't important.

Here is the video, and from what I see, the lettering "H-A-N-G" is very visible for a few seconds (thanks, sophistry makes me tired):
