Factual Bush ad in CALIFORNIA by moveon.org
i just saw a bush as failure ad on cnn in CALIFORNIA by moveon. and i love it because in california we are suffering with constant disgusting bush ads. the ad played recording of richard clarke talking about bush exploiting 9/11 in his ads and finished with a message about bush being a failure. i'm soooooooooo excited and would love to see more.

5. CBS may force the ad to be pulled. Clarke does not want it either.
Clarke Asks Anti-Bush Group to Pull TV Ads

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040331/ap_on_el_pr/terrorism_adviser&cid=694&ncid=2043

By TED BRIDIS, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites)'s former counterterrorism adviser complained Wednesday about the use of his name and comments critical of Bush in a new broadcast advertisement from a political group supporting Democratic candidate John Kerry (news - web sites).

Richard Clarke said he instructed his lawyer to ask the MoveOn.org Voter Fund to pull the ad, which Clarke said was created without his knowledge or permission. The group said it rejected the request. "I just don't want to be used," Clarke told The Associated Press. "I don't want to be part of what looks like a political TV ad. I'm trying hard to make this not a partisan thing but a discussion of how we stop terrorism from happening in the future, keep this on a policy issue. I don't want this to become any more emotional or personal than it has already."

6. I think he is right. MoveOn ought to produce a Bush Flip-Flop ad...

And make it amusing--the feckless media might give it some free play time. They played Bush's new ad over and over yesterday--without, of course, bothering to say it was a pack of lies and distortions!

7. This election might not be as close as people think.
Edited on Wed Mar-31-04 05:54 PM by katieforeman
The statements issued by the 9-11 commission and the sworn statements of CURRENT Bush administration officials contain a case against Bush on National Secuirty that's so devastating even some dittoheads may vote for Kerry.

Bush was AWOL during the National Security Crisis leading up to 9-11. There are uncontested facts in those reports that Bush cannot make go away by discrediting anyone. With the continued publicity when Rice testifies and when the Commission report is issued in July, Bush might loose in a landslide.
