A quick scan of the liberal Democrat Underground Web site found the following accolades: "It is how many of us moms feel." "That is a very good ad." "They should also do one with a Dad -- not only Moms feel that way." "LOVE this ad."

Of course, that's after they edited out the 50 or so 'F' bombs and other assorted swear words.

I knew that the day McCain said 100 years, he made a huge gaff. We all know what he meant, but we all also knew what the libs would do with that sound bite.

“And lastly does the word “girlfriend” pepper your conversations with your male friends???”

Only when my wife of 35 years isn’t around.

Don't worry lady. After Obama gets in,your adult son will be able to beat you to death for showing your ankle in public. So enjoy running your mouth while you can.

The ad targets imbeciles who cannot develop a rational thought. My guess is that it will be effective.

The Republicans want to snatch babies from their mothers’ arms and force them to fight a war for 100 years.

Some nuts out there actually believe this.

I don’t think he’ll be allowed to chase dogs anymore either.

simple response to that ad,
mother with baby, preferably young mother,
stating.
“My son Jack was never a punishment to me, and I have always been so proud of my country, that were it to be up in harms way, I would gladly encourage my son to defend it to his dying breath”

When my son told me he was enlisting in the United States Marine Corps in 2003, he had so much conviction in his voice and in his heart.... and scared as I was (we were already in Iraq), the pride was overwhelming... Thoughts of “.....this is what I get for raising an oustanding citizen and flying the flag every day...” nagged at me, but also a feeling of success in guiding his values.

President Ronald Reagan:

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

They’ve already said it was “wrong” to compare Obama to Chamberlain.

Obama sets the rules.

He’s also going to go with private financing for this election at the same time the DNC is holding McCain to public funding (and limits).

Sorry, honey, but when Alex turns 18, it’s not your decision whether the military can ‘have’ him any more, and it’s not gonna be McCain’s decision whether we’re in Iraq or not either. So, the ad is pretty much completely irrelevant... did someone actually spend money for it?

If her adult son decided to volunteer and put his life on the line to protect and serve his country, his mom would be ashamed, is that it?

You got it.

"I begged Casey not to go. I told him I would take him to Canada. I told him I would run over him with a car, anything to get him not to go to that immoral war." - Cindy Sheehan on Democracy Now (June 29, 2005)

That is NOT a peaceful act and that is NOT a mother loving her son. That is someone who puts her petty politics above the health and welfare of her family.

My first thoughts on seeing this video were, *that isn't that girl's baby. I don't even think she's a mother*

My first thought was "Why is moveon contibuting to the stereotype of blondes as complete idiots?"

MOM = Cindy Sheehanesque dingbat.

ALEX = Girly Man in training.

MoveOn.org = Seditionist army of nut jobs (almost as bad as the ACLU).

Barack took absent fathers (like his own) to task this past Father’s day. I’m waiting for his campaign to weigh in on this issue and denounce this ad for showing a single parent household (it is a work of fiction).

So anti-American progressive mothers don't want their children to protect the rights of their parents against enemies that declare war on us first, like the muslims did twice in 1996 and 1998. That is very right brain, non rational type of thinking.

They are turning their children into cowards. What kind of parent does that to their child on purpose?
