The Democratic National Committee has sparked outrage among veterans and others across the internet by running an anti-John McCain ad that shows U.S. soldiers being blown up.
After the new ad’s voice-over castigated McCain for suggesting that the United States may stay in Iraq for “maybe 100” years, the footage becomes shocking.

McCain deserves what ever the DNC gives him.
This should show the people just what POS these people are at the DNC.
The DNC is using al Qaeda recruiting videos? Let me be the last person on the planet to register surprise. BTT.
The DNC wouldn’t be as vile and repugnant as this ad shows them to be if there weren’t millions of people in this country who support them, and that is what is truely frightening.
and john thought the dnc would play nice. hopefully, he will wise up, fight back, and pick a true conservative as a v.p. (psst john. save your money for rebuttal until a few months from now).
That is about as low as you can go for a campaign ad. The ‘Rats are evil, twisted and mentally ill.
Good Lord. This should be cause for action. What action though.. I don’t know.
Tell me, were you a POW?
Don’t worry - I’m sure McCain will admonish them just like he did North Carolina Republicans.
He does not. And even if... the soldiers and their families don't deserve being used by Commie rats.
Has McCain apologized to the DNC for this criticism yet?
This is sickening! And a total outrage.
Maybe McCain will move to the right a little. Fat chance.
Piss off.
I don't think your link is working.
I have two daughters and a son-in-law in uniform, and this otherwise "strong" vet would not be able to look at the link, anyway.
The Democrats sound the depths of treachery and depravity on a daily basis.
How do such America-hating, military-hating, troop mission and morale-undermining people sleep at night?
Clearly, these Democrats have no idea just how good they have it in this wonderful country; and, they are clueless as to how desperately miserable THEY would be, if they ever reach their Marxist, collectivist "Utopian" goals.
I did not say he deserved what he got as a POW.
But the way he has treated Conservatives he deserves whatever the Liberals who he loves throw at him.
Our troops, their families do not however deserve this type of low life action by the Nazi’s at the DNC.
Well, Al Quaeda uses the same shots to advance their agenda, why not the DNC?
Those same shots have convinced DNC that we are losing and cannot win, maybe it will work in the election too.
I just sent the DNC an email. You can watch their video too. http://www.democrats.org/
the ad is an outrage, but McCain is a POS in his treatment of Conservatives, so you piss off.
UNless of corse this forces McCain to move to the right.
So are you a RINO McCain supporter?
If so why not go back to DU where you and him belong.
The DNC is despicable and any FReeper that would use this to bash McCain is right down there in the gutter with them!
We must ask ourselves: would Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, or Reagan approve of such an ad?
Mcllort already thinks he's on the right. So I doubt he'd ever move to a place he considers extreme and out of touch with reality.
When the democrats open their campaign headquarters here next summer perhaps those who choose to occupy it can stand by for some hard questioning frequently; the vermin won’t be having fun.
I didn’t use this to bash McCain, but with all of the ASS kissing to the scum on the other side of the ailse he has been doing the last 8 years all because he didn’t win, well he does deserve what ever they at the DNC do to him.
It is said that the families of these brave men will be hurt more by this.
But, Mccain needs to recant his Socialist ways and move back to his roots if he ever was a conservative.
While he was a hero in viet-Nam he has slamed conservatives every chance he gets and not a word is said about his Liberal pals.
Well guess what Juan McCain, wake up and smell the coffee.
How morally and intellectually vacant to oppose the war for the reason that it involves casualties. The DNC is pure anti war, anti military. Any war.
I agree 100%
“THEY WILL PAY FOR THIS! Every veterans organization and every service member, veteran & their family members need to write letters to the DNC and the networks that are airing this despicable ad!”
said to say that this isn’t what will happen. Look how many Generals support Obama and Hillery.
Most of them are only in this for the money. I’ll bet not one of the generals supporting the Dems says one word.
I doubt if they will even pull the ad.
This is tit for tat.
i agree with you.
but you’d be surprised how many tv viewers believe just that, many women friends i know.
Ummm Bill, do you want a real Al Qaeda recruiting video?
Check this one out.

Lovely background music, Men’s A cappella.
> The footage appears similar to film taken by jihadists who videotape IED explosions that kill American combat troops. The jihadists place the video on the internet to tout their “kill Americans” campaign success. The Army estimates that more than 6,500 jihadist Web sites promote violence against America and American troops.
Thus illustrating the importance of getting involved in StarCMC’s War on Terror Smackdown.

These filthy Muslim Terrorists post their videos on YouTube, and then the filthy DNC get their grubby paws on them and convert these videos to their own filthy purposes.
Helluva way to fight a war.
“That is about as low as you can go for a campaign ad. The Rats are evil, twisted and mentally ill.”
Co-signed.
This ad should backfire on the them.
They've been getting away with their outrageous, petulant, ongoing adolescence for a long time. I doubt that will stop any time soon.........
Sedition works for me
He deserves what the DNC gives him? No one deserves this. The soldiers and their families certainly don’t deserve this. Put your McCain hatred aside for a moment and think about them.
Anyway, I understood your response. I can also see where others would not catch on to the nuances of your feelings.
You can show soldiers being blown up but can’t show aborted babies.
I did before I posted and I stated that the families are the real victims here.
McCain has thought all along that his Socialist track would allow for a different type of election process. In the process of his being angry he trashed Conservatives.
Yes he has earned the scorn of the right and now he gets to feel the scorn of the left. The scorn they have always had for him.
They only liked him because he was trashing consevatives.
And this is the lowest of acts the Democrats could sink to, but it is who they are.
And McCain wants to govern with them as his left hand.
I hope the DNC runs the ad because it shows them for the true American-hating bastards they are.
Hint: it's not McCain, it's not George Bush, and its not even Dick Cheney.
I’m pretty sure I know this video. The two soldiers were unhurt, though it certainly didn’t appear that would be the case when the explosion took place. That will be the DNC’s defense, wait for it.
It’s a trap.
Now can we question their patriotism? After all they are using enemy propaganda footage to aid the enemy of our nation & are proud of it. ( the propaganda attack not their nation)
Thanks for the info.
trap bump/ping
Somebody should lose something for that...

Yup. They just whine and wimper. When the hell are the Republicans going to bitch-slap these liberals? Our party is pathetically gutless.
1. Julius Caesar pointed out along time ago that the people are fickle. 2. The people have not been watching but this in prime time will wake allot of the “do it ‘cause my daddy did” democrats up to smell the BS. I have to believe that most Americans think in the same neighborhood as myself, that Kooktata al weenie boy couldn’t suffer enough in 100 years for that. In a sense they just produced the best torpedo to hit them in years and remember this is after the gift of Wright. Wow who would have thought this was in the bag back in ‘06!
The ad is an outrage, and I am tired of pointless attacks on the GOP nominee.
