Kerry Spokesperson Calls on Bush to Apologize for Using Images of Hitler on Website

WASHINGTON, June 25 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Kerry campaign spokesperson Phil Singer issued the following statement in response to the Internet ad on George Bushs website featuring images of Adolph Hitler: The fact that George Bush thinks its appropriate to use images of Adolph Hitler in his campaign raises serious questions about his fitness to spend another four years in the White House. Adolph Hitler slaughtered millions of innocent people and has no place in a campaign that is supposed to be about the future and hope of this nation. The Presidents use of these images during a month that evoked the memory of World War II is remarkably insensitive to the sacrifices of the millions of people who lost their lives during Hitlers reign of terror.

The Bush Campaign should immediately remove these hateful images from its website and apologize for using them. The use of Adolph Hitler by any campaign, politician or party is simply wrong.

Proof that the Kerry "insiders" think that labelling his supporters as "Wild-eyed" may be effective.

Did they issue a similar statement against MoveOn.org, or are they just asking for a great big cup of STFU?

You've got to be kidding me. So is was ok for moveon.org to do it, but suddenly there is outrage from the Democrat candidate if Bush uses it?

Nice double-standard we have going on in politics, isn't it?

Kerry's team is objecting to Bush showing anti-Bush ads. Those images are from ads which were created by Bush's opponents.

The use of John Kerry by any campaign, politician or party is simply wrong.

I just went to GeorgeWBush.com and don't see any images of Hitler. What are they talking about?

Bingo. Especialy since the Hitler ad is not against Kerry but against Bush. Bush just made it into a commercial to display how petty they are.

I totally understand why they are upset...they think of Hitler as their own!

Funny they would be moaning about this while Al Gore is out giving speeches telling the DemonRat sheeple that GW Bush is sending out his brownshirts to intimidate media outlets and their sponsors over TV shows and newspaper stories that put Bush in a negative light.

MoveOn.org is a Kerry proxy campaign. The shear shamelessness of these people!! They produce the initial add. The Bush-Cheney campaign uses it to show the true nature of the modern democrat machine and the Dims flip it around!! It begs the question - why isn't Kerry Campaign condemning MoveOn.org?

Click the recent ad. Bush's campaign spliced a whole slew of Democratic speeches and ads together to show how crazy they are. The use of Hitler was by anti-Bush activists. Bush is simply showcasing their work to show how crazy they are.
