Bush campaign to base ad on Kerry terror quote
Democrats: GOP again taking senator's words out of context
Sunday, October 10, 2004 Posted: 2258 GMT (0658 HKT)
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush's campaign announced Sunday its plans to use as the basis of a new commercial a quote from an 8,000-word New York Times Magazine article about Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.
The parsing prompted the Kerry camp to retort that the soon-to-be-released Bush ad was another example of the president's campaign taking words out of context to create a misleading impression.
The article, a largely analytical cover story in the magazine, says the interviewer asked Kerry "what it would take for Americans to feel safe again."
''We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance,'' the article states as the Massachusetts senator's reply.

Kerry's positions aren't nuanced, they are just a nuisance.

Maybe Teressa will duct tape Kerry to the chair now, she wants revenge.
Sure hope Bush labels Kerry a liberal every chance he gets the next debate. I thought when he did this the last time, Kerry was gonna pop his cork.

We noticed that, too. Kerry is very thin skinned.

Kerry: "We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance.".
Voice-over: "John Kerry. A 9/10 candidate in a 9/11 world."
President Bush: "I'm President George W. Bush and I approved this message."

"We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance" I guess the families of those lost at The World Trade Center, The Pentagon, and on Flight 93 will be happy to know that it was only a "nuisance"!
