DNC TO LAUNCH FRESH ATTACK ON BUSH GUARD DUTY:  WILL RAISE QUESTIONS ABOUT 1978 CAMPAIGN LIT

**Exclusive**

Faster than a CBS eye can blink, dogged Dems are set to take to the airwaves anew hoping to keep questions about President Bush's National Guard duty in play, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Candidate Kerry apparently has rejected former President Clinton's advice not to get further locked in a 2004 Vietnam quagmire.

"George W. Bush's campaign literature claimed that he 'served in the U.S. Air Force.' The only problem? He didn't,"  slams a new DNC press release set for distribution.

Dems will attempt to increase the heat on Bush ahead of his planned Tuesday address before The National Guard Association gathering in Las Vegas.

In 2000, Bush opened his National Guard Association speech: "General, I am reporting for duty."

Kerry plans to speak to the group on Thursday, but he personally hold back questioning Bush's service, sources explain.

The coordinated nationwide effort this week by the DNC has been code-named "Project Fortunate Son."

"George Bush has a clear pattern of lying about his military service," DNC Communications Director Jano Cabrera blasts in the new release. "From 1978 to the present day, George Bush has refused to tell voters the truth about his service. It's time for the President to come clean."

"Flyers distributed to Texas voters during Bush's failed Congressional race say 'he served in the U.S. Air Force and the Texas Air National Guard.' But according to Air Force officials, Air National Guardsmen are not counted as members of the active-duty Air Force."

If at 6th you don't succeed...

[Crazieman]

Fresh on the heels of memogate, will memogate clean their clocks, or will they bury it in more false allegations?

[EaglesUpForever]

Don't tell me - they tried WordPerfect this time?

[In God I trust]

For crying out loud! Enough already!

[AZamericonnie]

How long can you beat a dead horse! You think they would be running, not walking, from this subject fast.

[EggsAckley]

Don't tell me - they tried WordPerfect this time?

ROTFLMFAO!!

[Southack]

So much for their latest claim that they want to talk about relevant, modern issues...

1 Full Legislative Day Left Until The AWB Expires

[uncitizen]

Haven't they had enough yet?

[BenLurkin]

Exactly.

If this is all they have then they ain't got squat.

[silverleaf]

Whot? Another memo?

[RogueIsland]

I guess if all you've got is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

[savedbygrace]

Will they base it on the faked memos, or will they fake something new? I'm on pins and needles waiting to find out.

[speedy]

We're back to the Monty Python skit. "Come on back and fight, you pansy. Just a flesh wound."

[Darkwolf377]

"Don't tell me - they tried WordPerfect this time?"



Nope--cuneiform.

[thelastvirgil]

BRING. IT. ON.

[linn37]

What more smut from the nuts?

[putupjob]

This is great news. Every day that goes by with junk like that in the news cycle, there is no chance for any Kerry message, none.

It is getting difficult for the Kerry campaign to bust through their own swill to get a message out there. They are pathetic and this will go down as the most lame campaign for President since at least Mondale and possibly McGovern.

[thoughtomator]

Final nail in the coffin? Tie themselves to the lead weight of integrity, CBS, as it sinks to the bottom of the Atlantic?

[The Bandit]

Don't tell me, they found more smoking documents in Kitty Kelley's book?
