Remember, Kerry denounced the MoveOn.org ad

[Cocoa]

how come Bush gets credit from most headline writers for denouncing the Swift ads, which he didn't.

And how come no story gives Kerry for SPECIFICALLY, UNAMBIGUOUSLY denouncing the Moveon.org ad?

Surely some reporter can notice how the "straight-shooter" Bush is highly weasly about the swift ads, while the "nuanced" Kerry is direct and unambiguous.

Kerry denounces ad that criticizes Bush over service in Guard
By Richard Simon

Los Angeles Times

WASHINGTON — John Kerry took a cue from Republican Sen. John McCain yesterday and denounced a television ad by one of his allies attacking President Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard.

In the latest twist in a debate about military credentials, Kerry condemned the new ad by the MoveOn political-action committee, even though it was produced in response to an ad questioning Kerry's Vietnam War record.

"This should be a campaign of issues, not insults," Kerry said in a written statement.

The Democratic presidential candidate called the ad "inappropriate" after McCain, of Arizona, a former Vietnam prisoner of war, criticized the MoveOn commercial. The 30-second ad accuses Bush of using family connections to avoid the Vietnam War.
