DNC's Terry McAuliffe Asks WH for Pledge Not to Use Carrier Footage in 2004 Campaign

Hotline National Journal/Democratic National Committee Press Release ^ | May 9, 2003 | Chuck Todd

[ewing]

Considering the expense to the American taxpayer and use of American men and women as 'extras' for this media stunt, President George W. Bush should pledge that his USS Lincoln landing not appear in any 2004 Presidential Campaign Commercials and Videos.

Press release recieved at the National Journal May 9

OK Terry...IF you pledge to go on the FOX News channel and 'tell all' about your dealing and enormous profits from Global Crossings

[mabelkitty]

Wouldn't it be hilarious if they did make the pledge, then used it in picture form to raise money?

Then Terry McAuliffe will squawk and cry about fund-raising promises, and then Lindsey Graham can turn to him and say, "Where was the outrage when you were selling the Lincoln Bedroom to the Chinese as a bed and breakfast"

Surely they don't want to go to campaign finance abuses!

[visualops]

LOL

I hope so!

Terry can go suck an egg.

[rvoitier]

Oh man, I'm laughing my butt off. Thanks!

[Gimme]

Add Waxmen to that deli slicer scenario!

[Saundra Duffy]

LOL!!!!!!!! The democraps are having a hissy fit over GWB, a REAL man! I love it.

[The South Texan]

A middle finger salute to you Terry McCrook.

[Protagoras]

Kinda like that moronic picture of Dukakis riding in the tank? LOL, that worked for the dems.

[Fred Mertz]

Super-duper poster-ruper!! Thanks for reminding me how much better things have gotten since those dark 8 years.

new headline: DEMS DEMAND NO PICTURES OF THE COMMNANDER IN CHIEF DOING HIS JOB

It would be fair if Bill Clinton destroys all pictures of him on his 3 aircraft carrries. This would have to include his presidential library and well as any use by any Hillary Clinton (Barf) administration.

But quite frankly. The dems lost the military vote ten years ago. It would take a complete turn around by the dems to regain the military vote and I don't see it happening.

Bwaaa.... Haaaa.... Ha.....

BREAKING NEWS!!!!

McAuliffe asks WH not to use President Bush's name as part of the 2004 Campaign.

[AFreeBird]

The White House already made this pledge..if the Dims were paying attention to ABC News this morning!

Yes the WH made the pledge. Now if the subject comes up, you know there'll be footage of it on the evening news.

Of course the RNC could use the footage, or someone else I suppose.

Still, I don't see why they couldn't or shouldn't use the footage of the CIC doing his JOB! You know BJ Clintoon would have in a heart beat and told the R's to stick it if they didn't like it.

The White House already made this pledge..if the Dims were paying attention to ABC News this morning!

Huh? What exactly did the White House say?

[Grampa Dave]

Well, we can use it and Fox news can use it.

We will have to create some very special and creative emails in 2004 to remember what happened on the Abraham Lincoln.

If we are lucky, ABCNNBCBS and CSPIN will get mad at Fox and us and run hours of tape reviewing how evil we are.

Like they did with the Free Rat commercials they ran in 2000 while complaing that the evil GW had made up that commercial.

[habs4ever]

I hearby nominate Terry Mac for DNC chairman forever and ever, amen...

Has their ever been a party chair so absolutely inept at politics as this twit?

[Sir Gawain]

Can we use this?

[Area51]

Here's how the White House needs to deal with this to shut up ole Terry.


Dear Terry,

It's too bad you didn't have this much interest in the Little people when you fleesed Millions out of Global Crossing while the stock holders got screwed.

[Protagoras]

Oops, ya beat me to it.

[Fred Mertz]

Yes, that one's approved! lol

[mabelkitty]

Can Freepers raise enough money to buy commercial spot on network television?

I'm thinking Iraqis bringing down Saddam statue, I'm thinking hand shaking of nine new members of NATO, I'm thinking pictures of people cashing their tax cuts, I'm thinking carrier picture with W. landing being greeted by hysterically happy military.....while in the background we play, AND I'M PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, WHERE AT LEAST I KNOW I'M FREE....

cut to:

Phantom of the Opera music and Hillary holding up the Post "BUSH KNEW" in the Senate, Hillary's shrewish screed on Patriotism, Lieberman talking about Enron, and Gephardt and the entire Democratic party walking out of Congress supporting the "greatest President in American History", Bill Clinton.

How much would that cost?
