DRUDGE EXCLUSIVE: GOP TO LAUNCH 'WHITE FLAG' DEM ATTACK
The Drudge Report ^ | December 8, 2005 | Matt Drudge

Posted on 12/08/2005 3:46:41 PM PST by new yorker 77

The DRUDGE REPORT has learned from a top GOP operative that the Republican National Committee will provide state parties with a web video prior to release tomorrow afternoon that shows a white flag waving over images of Democrat leaders making anti-war remarks.

The ad is in response to the controversial comments Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean and 2004 Democratic Presidential nominee John Kerry made earlier in the week.

A Democratic strategist who had the web ad described to her said, “This is way over the top but we have no one to blame but Dean, Kerry and others who continue to pander to the anti-war activists within our party.”

The web video advances the Republican contention that the Democrats only have a “retreat and defeat” message on the war in Iraq.

The video highlights the effect Democrats can have on the morale of U.S. soldiers.

One Republican strategist familiar with the ad said, “The Democrats, especially Howard Dean have a way of trying to turn the tables and say ‘that’s not what I meant’ – its just those ‘evil Republicans’ This video will make them crazy – it reinforces what they really believe with what they actually said – and that is devastating for the Democratic Party.”

...where all high-quality flags of surrender are made. Besides, you wouldn't expect liberals to suppor their own country and buy white sheets from here, would you?

I'm 67 and have a couple of cousins your Dad's age and a little older.

They are the descendents of FDR democrats. They blame everything that has happened to them on Republicans and things that haven't happened.

Tbey are miserable people and blame their poor life choices on Republicans and Christians.

After I was graduated from College, I broke off all relations with them. My Mother did the same a little later.

What's to discuss? I just saw the ad, and the entire thing is in their own words, with nothing added but the white flags and the soldier at the end.

It speaks for itself.

You didn't hear that from me....I said that it was going to be discussed on CNN.....all it ended up being was Candy Crowley giving a report and a few clips of Harry Reid who apparently it was decided would be the person to rebut the ad. All he did was mumble something about not politicizing the war.

perhaps 'discuss' was not the right word since the only discussion was between wolf and crowley.

I know I didn't :) I was watching Cavuto and got a phone call, so I didn't hear everything Mehlman said, just the first few seconds. But I didn't like what I did hear. Someone please tell me I didn't hear what I thought I heard.

Thanks, I wasn't questioning you, only the Dems. Sounds as if they didn't know what to say when the MSM gave them a chance to counterattack and bash the ad, although I assume they'll think of something by tomorrow.

Having just been there, also at Drudge: Michael Jackson overdose.

This other site says he is dead. I don't see any threads on this. I need to put this link somewhere... if someone wants to pick up on it, here goes.

http://michael.jackson.swellserver.com/news/top_stories/musician-overdose.php

I normally don't change topic so I'm outta here. It's Drudge's fault.
