He screwed up, he showed his true colors.

He's calling Kerry's bluff and taking the high road. If Kerry doesn't call an end to the ads and crap from moveon.org he is going to alienate more and more voters who haven't made up their minds. It is going to become clear as crystal that Kerry is a b.s. artist.
Making Kerry and all the Libs look like the Hypocrites that they are
Calm down Ox....by teaming up with McCain on this......he just co-opted him.....and pulled the RATS McCain card from the deck.
Something wrong about asking all groups to play under the same rules?
Sheesh, does everyone have to run around and scream like chicken littles everytime they hear something they don't expect?
Do the math. Last I heard the anti-Bush groups had raised more than $170 million, the anti-Kerry groups around $35 million. If the legal action President Bush is suggesting works, BOTH sides will be shut down. Since the anti-Bush groups have much more than $35 million left to spend, and there is still time for the SBVFT ads to run before a new ruling comes down, blocking all 527's will hurt the Dems more than the GOP. The SBVFT group just needs to decide how to time the release of their most damaging info, and make sure they have a backup outlet(prominent Senator, prosecutor, rare conservative journalist) for their big info in case the FEC shuts down their ads. If they truly are still holding back one or more blockbusters, it will now stand on its own if released via those other outlets.

Stop and consider the source. Are we working from primary source info here?
Bush is coming out against political free speech and it's being spun as brilliant "stategery".
