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. I could discuss the fact that I have no idea where Kerry stands on any given issue at any given time since he appears to have no stand.

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 that it was an attack on me, my family, my friends, may nation. I take it personal as should every American.

If George W. Bush wants to use 9/11 in his campaign, that is his right. He was attacked too. His response to the attacks shows the character and courage his predecessor did not have when we were attacked so many times during those 8 dark years.

God Bless America and George W. Bush.

Ditto. I think the majority of those who lost friends and loved ones that day understand that and truly do mourn and honor the memory of their individual loved ones respectfully and privately while joining with the nation as we remember and honor those lost as a group. But,it has begun to grate on me that the very ones who claim that President Bush is exploiting their loved ones are the ones who seem to be doing the exploiting by trying to achieve some sort of celebrity because of their relationship to a victim of 9/11. It's as if they aren't truly offended by exploitation as long as they can chose who does the exploitation, and who benefits from it.

All of this haranguing may cause more people to notice the ads than would have in the first place, and reasonable people will see for themselves that they serve more to remind, unify, and honor than to exploit.

I was hearing some liberal callers to the Michael Medved radio show FROTHING about
the commercials yesterday.

I finally listened to that cynical little voice in my head and it said:
"Karl Rove would NEVER release a commercial that hadn't been tested with focus groups
and by the best political analysts he could find. These commercials were released
first as good campaign adverts...and the possibility of flushing out the Democrats
that would sound like polarizing, raging, unbalanced wackos."

So far, it sounds like Dubya/Rove have gotten the "two-fer".
