Free-Write: Logos? Really?

Within the chapter there was one example that stood out to me, striking me with confusion. It was protestwarrior poster that shows happy Iraqi children being freed with the companionship of an American soldier. The poster said, "Liberating Iraqi Children From Tyranny. It's Costing Too Much." My initial reaction was, why is this even a poster? I'm sure there is some logical appeal behind it in terms of spending efforts in order to free those children, however, what person in their right mind would really go for any protest against that spending when the poster is coupled with happy children being freed from tyranny? I'm just confused with the face that someone would even create that poster. What purpose does it really serve? What other effect would it create other than taken aback confusion and perhaps anger at the greed of it? Why worry about money when the outcome is the freedom human life? Sure, that's all in the eye of the beholder, I guess, but, truly, how many people who would go for something like this compare to the amount of people against it? It's just a contradictory poster. I'm confused at its intentions and the publisher's lack of tact in terms of drawing a large audience to his or her cause.
