"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.

Your idea is well meaning but horrible. I think the ad should have left out the lame music and whiny comments at the end and included more clips of dems acting psychotic.

Whining isn't good, when Republicans whine it demoralizes the base. Just present the ad as "today's Democrats, are they like you?" fashion.

Thanks for the thoughts. I agree that whining isn't good and I hope that my "Bush should say this" thought didn't come off as whiny.

Here's the response from the Bush Campaign about this (I don't know if this has already been posted on FR --probably-- but I got if from the Bush email list)...

On Thursday, the campaign launched a web video titled Kerry's Coalition of the Wild-eyed. The video featured Democrats who support John Kerry making negative and baseless attacks against the President. Interspersed in the video were segments of two ads that appeared on a website sponsored by MoveOn.org - a group campaigning for Kerry - in January.

On Friday night, John Kerry's campaign denounced our use of these ads, and called that use "disgusting."

The Kerry campaign says, "The use of Adolf Hitler by any campaign, politician or party is simply wrong."

We agree. These ads, like much of the hate-filled, angry rhetoric of Kerry's coalition of the Wild-eyed, are disgusting.

Where was John Kerry's disgust when he hired Zack Exley - the man responsible for encouraging the production of these ads as part of a MoveOn contest - to run the Kerry campaign's internet operation?
Where was John Kerry's sense of outrage when Al Gore, just yesterday afternoon, compared the Bush Administration to the Nazis saying, "The Administration works closely with a network of 'rapid response' digital Brown Shirts who work to pressure reporters and their editors for 'undermining support for our troops.'"
Where was John Kerry's anger when Al Gore in May spoke of "Bush's Gulag"?
Why has John Kerry not denounced billionaire and Democrat Party donor George Soros for comparing the Bush Administration to Nazis. Soros stated, "When I hear Bush say, 'You're either with us or against us,' it reminds me of the Germans. It conjures up memories of Nazi slogans on the walls, Der Feind Hort mit ('The enemy is listening')."
Why has Kerry not spoken out against filmmaker Michael Moore who last October compared the Patriot Act to Mein Kampf. "The Patriot Act is the first step. 'Mein Kampf' - 'Mein Kampf' was written long before Hitler came to power."
We created this web video to show the depths to which these Kerry supporters will sink to win in November.

Is this the Democratic Party of Franklin Delano Roosevelt who reassured his countrymen we have nothing to fear but fear itself?

No. This is John Kerry's Coalition of the Wild-eyed, who have nothing to offer but fear-mongering.

I think they said it better than I did. Not whining. And, just for those of us who have been a little sketchy about the campaign strategy, we can know that this campaign is measured and means business.
