Kerry Ad Labels Bush Politics 'Despicable'
46 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) — responding to a Republican group's ad that portrays the senator as soft on terrorism — accused President Bush (news - web sites) and Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) of "despicable politics" in a new commercial that the Democrat's campaign rolled out Saturday.
Kerry's ad claims that the Republican ticket is "using the appalling and divisive strategy of playing politics with the war on terror, a strategy that undermines the efforts to combat terrorists in America and puts George Bush (news - web sites)'s own ambition ahead of the national good."
The ad responds to one running in Iowa and Wisconsin by Progress for America Voter Fund, an affiliate of a group created by longtime Republican consultant and former Bush aide Tony Feather. The fund's ad shows Sept. 11 hijacker Mohammed Atta, Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) and Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) and references terrorist attacks in Russia, Spain and the United States. "Would you trust Kerry against these fanatic killers?" the ad asks.
Kerry's campaign called the fund "a right-wing front group doing Bush's dirty work." Kerry's campaign also released one statement from former Sen. Max Cleland calling on Bush to condemn the "un-American" ad and another from former Sen. Bob Kerrey vouching for Kerry's "commitment to protecting America and strengthening our intelligence."
Steve Schmidt, a Bush campaign spokesman, dismissed the Kerry campaign's criticism and ad. He said that Kerry has had nine different positions on Iraq (news - web sites), "sending mixed signals to our enemies and to our allies, the consequences of which will make America less secure."

In all of human history, a pot has never called a kettle so black...
Senator Kerry, just because the ads are despicable doesn't mean the content is false.
You're despicable!!!
- Daffy Kerry
Please do not get mad with me, but to answer John Kerry's crybaby antics I am going to use the wise words of that saintly woman, Teresa Heinz...
SHOVE IT!!!
Why do I get the feeling that Kerry is hoping for a terrorist attack on this country before the November election? Then he'll be able to say, "See??? I told you so!" I don't know if this is an inappropriate thing to post, so I'm ready to have it pulled. It's a horrible thing to think this of someone.
"I'm rubber you're glue- whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you!" Kerry is a whiner and namecalling never comes across well.
I am so sick and tired of hearing the DNC et al use the words "despicable" and "outrageous" that I could just SCREAM!!
The Kerry campaign did that with the windsurfing ad, also.
It's also whining, and security moms don't like whining in a strong man.
This ploy always works. When things are turning to s**t all around you, WHINE!
They are a thin-skinned bunch of wusses, aren't they?
The most despicable people on earth these days besides the terrorists are the leaders of the democrat party. How dare they even hint that the President has one tenth of the nastiness in him they do.
I can't remember ever seeing a candidate whose commercials are based at whining about his opponent's commercials.
They certainly are thin-skinned. They can dish it out but can't take it!! What a bunch of sissies! The Windsurfing Ad hurt...that is why they are imploding faster than Mary Mapes' stock at CBS
The Kerry campaign has become so lame, that they are now responding to any ad that's out there. This ad was produced by a group of people supporting Bush. It was not produced by the Bush campaign, and this dork is responding by attacking the Bush campaign. Doh!
Also, this is another misleading headline by AP. Surprise, Surprise!
I agree. All Senator Kerry's ad does is draw attention to the GOP ad and reinforces the GOP charge. I wonder who is writing these ads for the Kerry campaign.
These are not the type of ads that win campaigns or communicate vision and strength. Its almost as if Karl Rove was in charge of Senator Kerry's advertising campaign. You think?
Whiners never win.
Cry babies always lose.
We are getting close to a Muskie crying in the snow meltdown.
Im sick of the press always using the word SLAM... we live in a country full of adult crybabies that make my 10yr olds look positivly mature.geeeeesh
I think that the Clintonistas are behind this...you know that they are there to destroy Kerry and pave the way for Lady McBeth!
Do you have any cheese pix...sKerry needs a little cheese with his WiiiiiiIIIIIINNNNNNNE!
He was in Vietnam, you know...
Who gives a hoot about what this guy says. Who is he anyway?How stupid.
"You're desthpicable!!!"
They sure are. The POTUS gets more criticism (no matter what he does) than anybody else on the planet. Kerry clearly can't handle it. It's amazing anyone wants this gasbag in charge.
Kabooom!! LOL, I was sitting here waiting for the swiftboats to hit each other! Pretty cute!
LOV THE DAFFY DUCK-"You're desthpicable!!!"
Wait. I can't tell if "Lucy" is sKerry or his scary sister Peggy.
Little changes
width="50%" on each
Oh my gosh, how much funnier can he look??
Kerry Ad Labels Bush Politics 'Despicable' (WaaWaaWaaa)
From the article:
The ad responds to one running in Iowa and Wisconsin by Progress for America Voter Fund, an affiliate of a group created by longtime Republican consultant and former Bush aide Tony Feather. The fund's ad shows Sept. 11 hijacker Mohammed Atta, Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) and Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) and references terrorist attacks in Russia, Spain and the United States. "Would you trust Kerry against these fanatic killers?" the ad asks.
Kerry's campaign called the fund "a right-wing front group doing Bush's dirty work." Kerry's campaign also released one statement from former Sen. Max Cleland calling on Bush to condemn the "un-American" ad and another from former Sen. Bob Kerrey vouching for Kerry's "commitment to protecting America and strengthening our intelligence."

ha!! WaaWaaWaaa is right! Would you like some Cheese with that Whine Senator "AWOL" Kerry ????
At least these folks running the ad are AMERICANS supporting Bush - unlike YOUR BIGGEST SOCIALIST contributor from Hungary!!:
The Soros ThreatThe Capitalist Threat

(Soros the Adulterer)FR Search for Keyword George Soros
Kerry's campaign also released one statement from former Sen. Max
Cleland calling on Bush to condemn the "un-American" ad ......Man, I hope the Bush campaign responds with an ad that shows that clip of
Cleland saying "un-American" and then contrasts that with a little ditty about
George Soros, a HUNGARIAN SOCIALIST being the biggest contributor to
Kerry's campaign via his $15 MILLION (or MORE??) he has given to
MoveOn.org (who has ties to the CPUSA - Communist Party USA). Now
Senator Kerry: WHO is un-American?? .....
LOL! Good one, Reg!
Nothing more needs to be said
I thought all the 9/11 Commission members agreed to stay out of politics this year. I guess it doesn't apply to Bob Kerrey.
