"The DNC is yapping about this and the Bush ads are running on every news station and on every nightly newscast around the country for two days straight. The Bush guys basically got full saturation from an ad that perhaps one million people might have seen on one of those cable channels had no attention been given," says a Kerry campaign staffer.

And so I ask you, my fellow Americans ... is this the man you want running the country for the next four years? ... a man who cut taxes ... a man who defeated tyranny in Afghanistan and Iraq ... a man who sent dictators around the world scurrying for cover ... a man who responded to 9/11 with forceful determination ... a man who keeps his word ... a man of honor and integrity ...

You know the truth about the slime in politics always comes from sources who are preaching to the choir only. Will a lamestream media source publish or broadcast this revelation for the masses who keep hearing about how awful using 911 references was?

here's a portion of that article that seems like a big
potential issue, and I had not heard before....


ROOM SERVICE

The Service Employees International Union in New York has senior union leaders looking for ways to complicate the Republican National Convention in New York later this summer. SEIU members work in hotels, restaurants, hospitals, and other establishments, and are one of the largest unions in Manhattan. There are no contracts expiring for the SEIU in New York this year, but that hasn't stopped the union, which has already committed more than $30 million to prevent the re-election of President Bush, from looking for ways to embarrass the Republican Party and make its stay in New York unpleasant.

"Maybe some hotels make the mistake of unfair work conditions, and the union has to pull out and strike city wide for a couple of days to protest their brothers and sisters being treated unfairly," says a member of another AFL-CIO union. "It can happen, and we are already hearing the talk. These folks will do anything to ruin the convention. It's one convention they did not want to come to New York."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

So...... this UNION is planning to SABOTAGE the Republican
Convention in New York!!!

I am glad that it is being exposed!

I just wish Kerry's slimy tactics would get broader coverage in the media.

I think the article says something different from your headine. Apparently Kerry has been looking for 911 families to denounce, but the DNC went behind Kerry's back with the attack on the Bush ads.

Possibly Kerry wants to use 911 to attack Bush, and now the concept has been discredited.

the Kerry camp did reach out family members of people killed on 9/11 whom they knew were supporters of Kerry and asked if they'd be willing to denounce the ads publicly.

In the words of Kerry's spokeswoman over the weekend...

"We should not be politicizing 9/11!"

>>Despite denials that the Kerry campaign criticized the Bush ads, the Kerry camp did reach out family members of people killed on 9/11 whom they knew were supporters of Kerry and asked if they'd be willing to denounce the ads publicly. Those people were given the names of assignment editors at cable news channels and network news outlets, as well as talking points for them to use if they were interviewed.


Wasn't that obvious to all but the Kerry supporters (eg the media)????
