Stating something negative about how a candidate has acted or is planning to act is not “negative campaigning.” It is just pointing out their faults. If the Obama lovers don’t like what McCain is saying they should look at his (Obama’s) message and actions. They are upset because the truth is being used and the truth does not favor Obama.
Why is it we’re constantly reading articles by “lifelong” Republicans who can’t stand their nominee and never “lifelong” Dems who can’t stand theirs? This happens every prez election. “I’m a lifelong Republican who with Lincoln helped found the party, but I find my the current
Republican candidate unsupportable because he called his opponent a big spender. I just can’t support name-calling like that. (sniff, sniff)”
Whoever the author of this article is he is full of crap.
George Bush has done some things Im not happy with but the primary function of Protecting the country he has performed fantastically. I dont envy him for 1 minute for having to send Men and women into battle ,but it was something that had to be done and he risked everything and has paid the price in Popularity but has earned my respect as a strong leader . In the Movie Northwest Passage Spencer Tracy says to Walter Brennan to have Mercy on him if he ever sees him in the future when he will be a broken Human being because of the decisions he has had to make as A leader of Men ,the same issues are raised in the The New Batman Movie ,I know they are only movies but the issues are as true and real .George Bush is a Hero in that regard and most people are small in comparison ,sitting out here and not having to actually make the decisions is easy .
This guy is clueless...the ad makes a comparison to their celebrity, it doesn't try to link them to Obama
What I meant was that they will perceive it as such.
Oddly enough for a dedicated, “lifelong” Republican, the only political contribution from Mr. Hurst the FEC seems to have on record is to a hardline, leftwing Democrat:
HURST, DENNIS
CLARKLAKE, MI 49234
DENNIS HURST & ASSOCIATES/LAWYER
SCHAUER, MARK HAMILTON
VIA SCHAUER FOR CONGRESS
10/16/2007
250.00
28990225169
Weird, huh?
Of course having any trial lawyer come out against you should be a feather in anyone’s cap.

Dennis Hurst is not a lifelong Republican. He's backed a couple of Republicans, but also donated to the Senate Democrat Majority Fund, and liberal Supreme Court Justice Marilyn Kelly. He also gave to Judge James Giddings who is no conservative.
