Kerry can regale us with his "heroics" in Vietnam of 30 years ago; yet it is improper for Bush to remind us of the deadliest attack on American soil and his response to it.
Man, that line is getting old...
People that protest this ad would rather forget about 9/11. Guess what? It did happen and during Bush's presidency. Not only does he have a RIGHT to reference the event, he has an OBLIGATION to do so...
These people put their own political agenda ahead of the country's safety.
Doyle and Willett--
Judge for yourself--
FOX news just did a hit piece on Bush's new ads. They ran them and pointed out that the people appearing in them were paid actors. The police, firmen, and soldiers were not real and that Bush even highlighted his own job loss issue in one of them. We should all be furious over this and I for one am making my thoughts clear to Fox.
Children and dogs KNOW who's trustworthy.

These slimy dim-o-Rats have shown satan to be their leader. Plain evil is the building block of which they are made. The ads were magnificent, spot-on, and in extremely good taste,
9/11 belongs to every American, much as Pearl Harbor, or the War for Independence. The surviving family members have our sympathies, and as a nation we have come together and insured that their families will never want. It was "OUR" President that rushed himself and $20 Billion to Ground Zero! The few outspoken protesters have shown themselves to be shallow, unappreciative, and left-leaning. I watched several interviews on Fox last night, and O'Reilly shredded their arguments (as lame as they were).
President Bush should jab ole "Horse-Face" with a really blistering ad using more powerful images, just so "Lurch" will know the difference between a prod and a full body-slam!!!
BTW, have I mentioned that I HATE dim-o-Rats?!

We as a nation were attacked and suffered casualties, just a surely as it has happened in any war. W was the man we depended on to rally the nation and defend us from more hits. The man has done an exemplary job in both areas. I am so sick with victimology.Over my sixty years I've seen this as an increasingly popular form of coercion. The families of those killed by our enemies received huge sums of money, money that victims of other wars never saw. The image of the trade center in the W commercial is, probably, on the screen for less than 2 seconds. The image is a recounting of a historical event. How the President handled one of the worst situations ever handed a new leader is truly incredible. Give the man 2 seconds of truth without almost blaming him for the grief.

The Ground Zero ad makes GW look good, just as his aircraft carrier pilot's uniform makes him look good.
Suggest the Dims produce an ad which makes Kerry look good. Like his tossing 'his' medals over the WH fence.....

In all seriousness, the ads should show the WTC jumpers falling that long way down, with a voiceover of John Kerry saying that the terror threat is "exaggerated."

I just don't see how Kerry can win- there's just too much evidence... including his own words- to make him hopelessly tainted.

1- I hate Boosh!

John Kerry may have been a good American. He may have been a good leader in battle. I see him today and now as just another damned politician who would sell his soul for personal power and what he views as an elite status in Washington.

Yes...all past history, except that of George W. Bush's National Guard record, college drinking exploits, Kerry's Vietnam heroism, and Bush administration failures, is OFF LIMITS for any discussion, pictures, or commercials.
Give me a break! The folks who bring up their "disgust" with the commercials ALL have political agendas which oppose Bush! Now, who's politicizing 9/11????

I heard Rush play the sound bites of the women all saying the exact same thing. I thought I'd search for those sounds bites tonight when I came across this trail of links from Colleen Kelly and Peaceful Tomorrows back to John Kerry himself.
Here's some quick links if you want to pass this info along without all of my commentary:
The "outraged" faces we've seen on television the past two days are more than they seem. Family members of 9/11 victims have been interviewed ad nauseum on
television and in
newspapers far and wide--Among those 9/11 family members quoted in newspapers and in television interviews across the nation are people like Rita Lasar and Colleen Kelly. Both Lasar and Kelly are leaders of a group called
September 11 Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, which on it's surface sounds innocuous enough.But when the connections are peeled away like the layers of an onion, the true picture emerges. Peaceful Tomorrows is one of several projects sponsored by the
Tides Center of Pennsylvania.But who is the Tides Center? Known as the Tides Center for Pennsylvania, formerly the Tides Center for Western Pennsylvania, it is none other than a creation of the
Tides Foundation and Center, headquartered in San Francisco, and two
Pennsylvania-based foundations -- the Vira Heinz Endowment and the Howard Heinz Endowment-- chaired by
Teresa Heinz Kerry, heir to the Heinz food company fortune and wife of Democrat presidential contender Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts.I've been ranting in my blog for the last year, but this seemed too good to keep to myself. If you're interested:

It just shows that the Dems know they can't survive an election based upon the will to defend this country instead of letting it be destroyed.
