I'd like to see anyone, ANYONE, step up & slime these men. Of course, they wll not have the balls to attack former POW's like they attack "ordinary" vets.

Do you think they will even have the balls to suggest these men were paid off or bought?

This is the most heartwrenching ad I have seen. I remember watching the POW's get off of the planes.

My God....it is relevant to this election. Any election. In war time or times of peace.

BTW--can't wait to see Chris Matthews tonight. If he is even on. He will probably have a stroke when he sees this. And remember, when asked by Chris, Thurlow said "YES". It is a motivating factor for him.

EXACTLY. All the mush you hear about "the republicans will certainly have this up in tv ads" is always wrong. They never have the brains or guts to do it. Here is a candidate who gave aid and comfort to the enemy during war, even met with the enemy to encourage THE ENEMY during peace talks, and the republicans would never say it. And who gets hurt by that? John Q Citizen.

Is Kerry going to try to ban this ad as well? First books, then ads? Trial lawyers will try anything and everything to stop the truth about Kerry.

Holy crap. This may be the single most devastating TV ad in political history. I am amazed that anyone really had the cojones to do it.

This is not political, it's personal.
