'Texans for Truth' ad challenges Bush on Guard service
(That's a phrase my Mom used all the time.)
IF Bush was running on his record in the National Guard, this would be important. But, unlike the other candidate, George W. Bush is running on his more recent record as President of the United States.
Unfortunately, the MSM will not bother making that distinction.
Tomorrow (Wed) is big media's open season on Bush's Guard service. They don't have any other arrows left in their quiver. We're close to the end folks!
Hmmm. Let's see if Kerry denounces this one.
Wasn't there some other group that they ignored for months and months? Something about Swift Vets?
They still have the cocaine at Camp David. It has been bad and it is going to get worse.

... with the understanding that the 'truth' to a liberal is anything that will put/keep liberals in power.
Per the IRS website for 527s they list the Custodian of Texans for Truth as:
Glen W. Smith _____ (address excluded) on Sierra Grande Austin Texas (no e-mail or contact number)
A web search for that address in Austin turns up for Peaceful Schools International as run by a Margie Becker
A web search for Glen W Smith found the following:
Glenn W. Smith is managing director/consultant to the progressive Rockridge Institute of Oakland, California. Smith lives in Austin, Texas. His email is glenns@affinitydynamics.com.
The Rockridge Institute identifies itself as a group of distinguished scholars and researchers working to help achieve a just, democratic, environmentally sustainable, and humane society

Thank you "Texans for Truth", AP and Boston Globe. Now Kerry once again is fair game for future Vietnam questions, ads and Media articles. I'm assuming that was your strategy all along. Tut, tut, tut, you should listen to your guru Clintoon. Oh, by the way "Texans for Truth" et al., I'm sure ya all asked Kerry to fill out his SF 180, filed a FOIA regarding all his records, etc. etc....after all you want all the truth to come out?
He won't. And the "mainstream" (sic) media won't pressure him too either.
'Course, the Leftist media won't note that Bush didn't make his 35-year past military service the cornerstone of his campaign (unlike his pantywaist opponent).
The good news....none of it's going to stick. It's only going to make the Dems look desperate and mean-spirited. Gotta love it!!!!!!!!!
Fox News had an eye witness to Bush's service in Alabama on just yesterday.
It's just going to force people demand that Senator Kerry sign Form 180 to get his complete military record. People will ask why Kerry hasn't signed this form--maybe because in truth Kerry had a highly-chequered military career?
They've tried the coke, newby, and it didn't work. Ask Ann Richards and Al Gore.
If Newsweak won't touch the Kelley book for "poor reporting" than it must be really terrible...as in garbage. Next thing you know the National Enquirer and Hustler magazine will be running away from it. Kelley doesn't care. She got her money.
I know in my heart that immediately following the release of this add, the MSM will tell everyone about the rich Kerry backer who funded a large portion of it. (/sarcasm)
can someone tell me when Bush made his guard service the center piece of his campaign?
