Turnabout Strikes Nerve at Kerry Campaign; Silence Turned to Shrieks Over New Web Ad (Wildeyed Dems)

Something to Yak About – Turnabout Strikes Nerve at Kerry Campaign; Silence Turned to Shrieks Over New Web Ad Well!
Seems folks at the John Kerry campaign, which was oh so mute about six months back when their pals at Move On Dot Org were running web videos comparing the president to Adolf Hitler, now have their knickers in a collective twist over a Bush-Cheney web video that uses Move On-posted video images to illustrate the kind of people backing Kerry’s bid for the White House – the Coalition of the Wild Eyed, as it were.

Good Point, Ken
The same John Kerry campaign that’s wailing and gnashing its teeth over the new web video hasn’t had much to say about its own financial backers playing the Hitler card to slime the president, and BC04 Campaign Manager Ken Mehlman made a salient point saying, “Why has John Kerry not denounced billionaire and Democrat(ic) Party donor George Soros for comparing the Bush administration to Nazis?” BTW, there’s nothing on US Newswire about that one.

Coalition of the Wild Eyed Goes Grassroots
A lot of folks have heard Howard Dean’s ‘I Have a Scream’ jag (Pssst… RNC Radio Services has an extended dance mix of that rant) and Al Gore’s more recent crack about rapid-response “Brown Shirts,” but John Kerry’s Coalition of the Wild Eyed isn’t limited to icons of the Democrat Party. A weekend Sacramento Bee article quotes a local Democrat activist as saying, “Kerry should be pouncing, clawing and ripping Bush's throat out because he's such an open target.” Now there’s a visual for ya, straight from John Kerry’s grassroots base.

Just Who Are These People Pulling for John Kerry?
Call ‘em what you will – the Coalition of the Wild Eyed, or John Kerry’s ‘Crazy Uncles,’ but one thing is clear: the people who want John Kerry residing at 1600 Penn merit scrutiny because they are the people who will have the man’s ear. Get the lowdown in a not-so-wild-eyed manner by calling RNC Radio Services now at 202-863-8614.

Talkers Profile – WMNF /Tampa
“WMNF is a non-commercial community radio station that celebrates local cultural diversity and is committed to equality, peace and social and economic justice. WMNF provides broadcasts and creates other forums to serve the community by the exposure and sharing of these values.” (SOURCE: WMNF/Tampa)

The Final Yak
“Al Gore's history of denial of the threat of terrorism is no less dangerous today in his role as John Kerry’s surrogate than it was in the 1990s in his role as vice president, a time when Osama bin Laden was declaring war on the United States five different times.” (SOURCE: RNC Communications Director Jim Dyke)

"THE PROGRESSIVES" WOULD NOT HAVE SENT TROOPS TO AFGHANISTAN

Oh he would do that, but it's impossible to get his hair dresser, manicurist, and pedicurist all in one place at one time for the after-the-fight hair poofing and nail repairs.

"Crazy Uncles" -- I love it.

Here's what comes up when you click that link:

"Between Al Gore’s unhinged rants, MoveOn.org’s bizarre invectives and Michael Moore’s cinematic fiction, Republican National Committee Communications Director Jim Dyke wonders whether John Kerry now has a ‘crazy uncle’ problem."

The Dimocrat kook factor is a rich vein that Rove & Co. will now mine mercilessly.

Who needs a writer for the satire? Hell, the dems do a great job on themselves. It gets to the place that you just can't wait for algores next rant. Wonder what he'll do next time?

The best part about it is, THEY ARE KOOKS! Even better, they are SCREAMING kooks, so when exposed, they will SCREAM EVEN LOUDER!

I suggested on older threads that a montage of this sort would be great. No one likes to vote for wild eyed crazy uncles.

Kooks? A whole segment of these crackpots are out and out raving lunatics.

Have you seen some of the conspiracy theories that are now spreading like a virus among these crazies? It has now gone far beyond the political realm for these unhinged nutbags-they have entered the twilight zone of psychological disfunction.

When Bush wins in Nov these poor bastards are heading for a psychological Götterdämmerung which will no doubt require years of treatment which I'm sure the folks on Free Republic will be only too happy to help them with.
