Interesting, when some Veterans were outraged by the Kerry ads it didn't make any headlines.
Wonder why... NOT
Propaganda... propaganda... CNN... propaganda... propaganda... CNN...

Okay..so would they rather vote for Ketchup boy, who stated "Bush created terrorists"-basically saying that we dreamed up 9/11-now that is distasteful
These idiots will do anything to try to make something good that Bush does look like it is something bad.

Direct quote from my brother (whose wife lost her sister in the WTC), when I asked him if he or his wife were offended by the president using the WTC in his ad footage:
"Heavens no....that's the liberal media picking at the advertising because they know that Kerry doesn't have the $$$ to run his own. Fact is, he responded to the crisis as best he could...and the country rallied behind him. It might have "happened on his watch"....but it all started on the Liar's watch. So, it could have been avoided if Clinton hadn't been more concerned with diddling his intern and covering his ass."

I went to see the ads on the website. I have to wonder how many of the folks who are offended at them actually saw them first.

Exactly. Imagine the illogic of NOT dealing with 9-11 in the presidential election. Gee, I guess that's the democrat aim isn't it. The quoted jerk is transparent when he adds the Iraq death toll to 9-11. Further, as you point out, NOT reelecting this president means selling out to those who didn't/ won't protect us. We were ALL attacked on 9-11 and I DEMAND protection.

more relatives of victims are doubtless proud of the fact that Bush actually did something to prevent more 9/11s, and destroyed the training infrastructure of the terrorists guilty of the atrocity, than are in any way outraged enough to become mindless shills for the political party that enabled Bin Laden to commit this heinous crime in the first place. Mr. Rove please note: these ads hit the spot! Do more and more and more and more! Watch the cowardly anti-American UN sucking left squirm! masterful

"Why doesn't the Media interview me. I could tell them how offended I am by John Kerry's traitorous activities since coming home from Nam.
Another thing is, though I feel for the families who lost someone on 9/11, the attacks are not their private property. The attacks were aimed at every American. I am sick of people acting like because they lost someone, this is private. Their loss is private but the attacks were not. I will never forget it.
God Bless America and George W. Bush.

Imagine being "disgusted" by honoring the dead attacked at Pearl harbor?
Repubs wake up. The dems will try to make everything good and honorable you do into an embarrassment. don't allow it. Go after them wildly for it. They deserve it.
Kerry has an ad using and attacking Bush on the aircraft carrier and the "mission accomplished" sign. I didn't notice any media analysis about him daring to use and question the accomplishments and sacrifices of our troops.

REUTERS ALERT Anything from Reuters has about as much credibility as Bill Clinton.
To: The_Victor
Ron Willett of Walnut Shade, Missouri, said he was disgusted when he saw the ads. Willett, who lost his 29-year-old son, John Charles, when planes hit the trade center, said he is now so upset, "I would vote for Saddam Hussein before I would vote for Bush." I'd like to meet this person face-to-face and ask him about his quote.

Here's how they work:
- The media swamp the press with anecdotal "outrage"
- The media interview each other about the "outrage"
- The talking heads comment on the outrage
- Repeat Step 1 through 3 for one week
- The media construct and skew a poll that shows the "American people are 'outraged'
- The media continue to wonder why 'flyover America' thinks the press is at best irrelevant

The following is a reprint from the locked thread.
The WTC should not appear in any ad, period. Rove and Bush made a mistake. I hope they correct it posthaste.
Bullshit. Stop being a candy-ass. 9-11 belongs to EVERYBODY; it happened to all of us. Bush showed SUPERB leadership in the face of terror. Bush has every right to point to his record on the war on terror.
If television had existed in 1944, Roosevelt would have run ads praising his leadership. They would have run that film of the Number Two Gun magazine going up on the Arizona. And FDR would have been right to run it; up until Yalta, his war leadership was superb.
Don't fall for the claptrap from the Dems, and DON'T let Democrats pretend that 9-11 belongs to them. It belongs to everybody. And there's no sense in allowing Dems to dictate our campaign.
Be Seeing You,
Chris

These people put their own political agenda ahead of the country's safety.
That good-looking blond is an anti-Bush fanatic.
