Kerry Spokesperson Calls on Bush to Apologize for Using Images of Hitler on Website

WASHINGTON, June 25 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Kerry campaign spokesperson Phil Singer issued the following statement in response to the Internet ad on George Bushs website featuring images of Adolph Hitler: The fact that George Bush thinks its appropriate to use images of Adolph Hitler in his campaign raises serious questions about his fitness to spend another four years in the White House. Adolph Hitler slaughtered millions of innocent people and has no place in a campaign that is supposed to be about the future and hope of this nation. The Presidents use of these images during a month that evoked the memory of World War II is remarkably insensitive to the sacrifices of the millions of people who lost their lives during Hitlers reign of terror.

The Bush Campaign should immediately remove these hateful images from its website and apologize for using them. The use of Adolph Hitler by any campaign, politician or party is simply wrong.

How this left-wing party became a euphemism for extreme conservatives is a case study in disinformation

Revisionist history and the ignorant masses serve the dim party well....

Bush had nothing to do with putting that ad out. Or am I mistaken?

It's been said before but bears repeating: If it wasn't for double standards, democrats would have no standards at all.

Proof that the Kerry "insiders" think that labelling his supporters as "Wild-eyed" may be effective.

Bingo! their yelping because it hit a nerve as well it should. Look at the polls the "sinking feeling" is setting in. Even the Slimes had to admit Saddam and Bin Laden were a item.

Is this from The Onion????

My sentiments exactly, it's beyond belief, therefore I somewhat expect Dan Rather to lead off the news with it tonight.

Interesting...hmmm.

MoveOn.org has been running the Hitler ad for, I don't know, 2 or 3 months. No mention from Kerry. No mention from the DNC. No mention from the mainstream media. Odd.

George W. Bush puts out an ad CITING the very same ad and Kerry campaign flips out.

You know that we will hear from Terry McAwful, if not within hours, ALL this weekend.

But, what's the one thing that might (depending on if the media follows even the most standard --and I mean 8th grade level-- approach to paranthetical documentation) bring to light that the Bush-haters have been casting Bush as Hitler for months and John Kerry didn't say a word! That will further reveal the character of John Kerry (or, rather, the lack thereof).

Even if the partisan sychophants don't go that far, they will at least denounce the ad that was produced by MoveOn.org. And, by proxy, John Kerry and the facist, socialists running the DNC and Kerry's campaign will be shown for the haters that they are.

I can't help but thinking that the Bush team has just been collecting all of these nut-case comments.

This ad is VERY effective.

Now, that said, I have to hope for 2 things...

1. That Bush doesn't pull the ad under no matter HOW much pressure there is. He should make the statement simple (if anyone knows anyone on the Bush/Cheney team, please send them this idea...if it isn't already in the works):

"I want the American people to know who MoveOn.org is. This is the kind of hate that they carry in their message. That ad has been out for over 2 months and John Kerry and his supporters, INCLUDING MOVEON.ORG, haven't said hide nor hair about it. The American people need to know that John Kerry's supporters are thinking about negative things. I'm thinking about positive things.

As soon as John Kerry denounces MoveOn.org, we'll pull the ad. That seems fair." [grin]

2. That the mainstream media is even the slightest bit far in pointing out that the Bush campaign DID NOT make that ad and that MoveOn.org did.

Hey, Mr. Singer, go back and see what Vice-President Cheney said to Leaky Leahy, and apply it to yourself.
