Jeb Bush: Swiftvet Ads Not a 'Smear' (News sMax)
New sMax


"I don't think are a smear," Gov. Bush told radio host Sean Hannity. ..

"In fact, what ought to happen is, there ought to be fact checks. Every ad that goes out ought to be looked at by the press in an objective way and people can make their own determination whether they're accurate or not." ..

That's not what I'm talking about," he told Hannity. "I'm talking about calling people Nazis - the vitriolic hatred that seems to exist - it's over the top."

"There needs to be a restoration of civility in political discourse," he added.

5. They keep referring to that ad submitted to MoveOn that was
taken out of their contest. Somehow it got in the media, and they're blaming it on MoveOn.

Actually, there are similarities to shrub sometines.

6. some financial ties in the 40's...or so I've heard
Jeb's right. The media should investigate the record of Prescott Bush's bank in the 40's and any loans it might have given the Nazi government. See what the facts are so we can all make up our minds.

14. the ad they then used interspersed with Gore, Dean, and Moore
only democrats can be compared to Hitler.

(the use of that ad by Bush/Cheney 2004 makes me think it was a Rove plant to begin with... what anti-Bush mediamaker would let Bush use their ad?)

4. OMG there is a sanity issue here. And on Hannity.
That is the most out of touch comment I've heard all week, and I've heard a hundred at least.

10. I'm going to release ads accusing Jeb of being a pedophile.
Like he said, "people can make their own determination whether they're accurate or not."

11. Jeb reads from the same Rove memo: Tony Snow said the *exact* same thing
Edited on Sat Aug-28-04 12:52 AM by Richardo
...on his radio show tonight. But I must be in error - there's no orchestration from the White house, right? :eyes:

13. Don't you just love how
when he thinks they are talking about the swifties he defends and puts the responsibility on the press, and in the very next sentence, when Hannity says he was referring to the 'other side' all of a sudden he calls for 'civility'?

Sheesh, what a pack of swine.
