Dhimmidonks Hit Bottom, Dig, Trying to Stop Vets' Advertisements
2006-02-20
In Minnesota the Democratic Party has undertaken a campaign to suppress two advertisements giving voice to the sentiments of Iraq war veterans and Gold Star Families who support the war. Brian Melendez is the chairman of the Minnesota Democratic Party. This past Thursday Melendez called a press conference and condemned the first of the two advertisements -- the one featuring the veterans -- as "un-American, untruthful and a lie."
Check it out - multiple links there, including to the ads the Dhimmis are so a-skeered of...
I've seen the ads. Very powerful. Ads like that get into the mainstream, look out.

#14  KSTP...Would that by any chance be the station owned by the Star Tribune Papers?

#13  There is one channel in the Twin Cities that refuses to air the commercials: KSTP.

Let them know how you feel if you're up here.

#11  Any way of positing those to a site that does not crash Firefox with a security hazard plugin?

#10  I guess next they will attempt to stop the Military from voting or having their votes counted.

Gore, 2000.

Next? Hell, Al Gore tried to do exactly that as the very first act in contesting the Flordia count. Get as many military absentee ballots thrown out in the count.

#8  Looks like the group behind these ads is a worthy place to donate a few bucks. It did wonders for Swift Boats at a similar time in their attempts to get their ads out.

#7  I guess if your anti-Democrat your anti-American? I can see where Mr Melendez can get confused: the faces, the Names, Ranks, and Branch of service of the speakers is clearly shown. They can only attribute their ?argument? to unknown or unnamed sources. I wish them "Bon Chance" with their latest campaign. I guess next they will attempt to stop the Military from voting or having their votes counted. Clearly they need to stop these radicals from voting for another neoCon, racists, Hitlerite (ie a Republican).

#4  If you are not a democrat and happen to live in a Midwest Blue State there is a positive angle to this story. This is another example of how the “Progressive” element has increasingly taken control and has become a detriment to the party. To be sure, the overriding reason why the Midwest has consistently voted democrat is because of Organized Labor. And for that reason the gurus arrogantly believe that their faithful will automatically cast a vote for any of their candidates on the ballot as long as a “D” follows their name. But ask the rank-and-file, out of earshot of their shop steward, about other issues of concern. How does the democrat platform regarding affirmative action and illegal immigration square with their interpretation of fundamental union by-laws? Listen to what the majority of Blue Collar workers have to say regarding issues like animal rights and gun control legislation. Are they pleased with the Granolas in their party successfully saving a “precious” ten out of hundreds of thousands of acres even if it eliminates the potential for hundreds of jobs? There are numerous other examples of divisions within the party that currently exist. The shrill voices of the “Anti-War-Anywhere” segment just may be the tipping point.
