I'm sure the press will be all over this.

BUMP!

Good catch!

'Some'

Interesting word.....designed to imply "well, we can't just not acknowledge them, but we can imply they're a small, smal minority."

And how many '9-11 families' were enough to start the furor? A few leading acitvists?

Good! Glad you saw this...

[Yardstick]

Well, every now and then things go our way. I just googled under *9-11 victims ads Bush* and the first two news stories to come up were:

"9/11 victims' families show Bush support" -- Houston Chronicle

and

"Some 9/11 families want Bush ads yanked" -- CNN (note the all-important "some" in this one)

"I'm sure the press will be all over this:

Just went through this on FoxNews. . .never mentioned that these rote attacks are initiated from Democrats/Union et al; never mentioned that many of these families of the firefighters support Bush's message.

Carl Cameron let Kerry hammer on Bush actions 'after' 9/11; while never challenging Kerry on his post-war actions. . .including his meeting with the enemy VietCong. . .

Sickening, all of it.

Good news is. . .Bush is NOT backing down. . .

[Peach]

That's the best part of that news, I agree. Good for him.

I think although he won't fight dirty, he's not going to lie down.

And I'm sure we can count on Russetpotatohead to read this article to his viewers Sunday. I really really really dislike the media.

A patient and resolved man. Kind of like when my dog knows there are deer in the yard and she doesn't stop pacing, whining and pestering until we let her out of the house to go investigate for herself. Locked and focused on a particular goal. That's our man Dubya!!!

FreeRepublic lost members and friends and kin on 9.11.2001

I think the Bush ads are not only appropriate, but important to concider when voting for the next President:

NYFD Battalion Chief John Moran (Freeper BCM member since 9.28.1998) Perishes In World Trade Center

Barbara Olson Tribute (FReeper member since 11.5.1999) - Tell Her Family Why You Loved Her.

Love the comparison. . .perfect.

(Bet your dog is 'no Jack Russel'!)

Rudy Giuliani is Russetpotatohead's main guest tomorrow - I bet he'll bring it up!

"Good news is. . .Bush is NOT backing down. . ."

That IS good news. Let's keep pouring it on.

bump for Russetpotatohead - love that one. Share your warm fuzzies for media as well.

Am going to write FoxNews et al; Drudge. May their mail boxes be full of same.

Are they going to snooze on this and let the weekend news cycle; including Sunday morning shows play out the charade of this.

President Bush deserves BETTER, da....it!

Today's media is a far cry from what the Founding Fathers (yeah, dead white guys) envisioned. Today's newspapers, mags, TV and much of radio are simply house organs for the democRATS. It's really amazing that the GOP's message has managed to get through the media bias filters effectively enough to elect a Republican President and a Republican Congress.
