Bush ad showing MoveOn, Gore, Moore attacks
2004-06-28
IMO, not bad but the intro is too long.

Also, why show just Moore’s face when the rest of him is so well.... uh... amusing.

#7  I read something yesterday at Instapundit that the Kerry campaign was demanding an appology from the Bush campaign for showing this add. The height of hippocracy!

#6  CNN today also did the Bush ad in a way to imply that Bush was comparing Kerry to Hitler.

Haven't heard yet from the responsible left about this. Maybe they no longer exist.

Regarding the F-911 movie. The left has already come up with an excuse. "Yes the movie is non factual but Bush deserves it". I saw this on a few sites today.

Can you imagine if Rush would have made a movie with even a trivial factual error?

#5  If Kerry doesn't have the guts or the integrity to repudiate Lumpy Riefenstahl's support in general, and this movie in particular, it's all over.

#4  I would have gone for the Kerry-as-Chamberlain response advertisement, but I'm not a nice person.

#3  The headline to the Cincinnati Enquirer story about this ad:

"Republican Ad Features Face of Hitler"

I didn't read the story; I had already read about it all online. I was just amazed at yet another example of how utterly dishonest the press has become.

#2  My ultra-lib friend Harvey (head of the local ACLU) went with me to see F-911 the other night. Afterward, he said, "what a load of horseshit. This is a disaster, Moore couldn't have done us more harm if the Republicans had been paying him." Harv is especially concerned that the Hollywood hype machine will turn Moore's condescending and primitive propaganda screed into the primary source for perceptions of liberal activism in the 21st century; with disastrous results for the left.

He is not the only liberal worried about the backlash against this crude propaganda piece. LLL editorialist Cary Clack of the San Antonio Express-News also expresses concern, though only through the usual cloud of hedging, false equivalency and obfuscation.

#1  And?

Just like the veeps comments to Oily Leahy.

This has needed to be said for a LONG time!
