I like How Bush
seems to be so compassionate in his ads on television. Talking about ownership among other things, then he has people of all different races in his ads also. Now he sure wouldn't want to leave anyone out now would he?? Like he really cares about minorities.... This guy is a joke...

1. What I really find funny tnhatesbush, is the fact that
millions upon millions of dollars in negative ads didn't help him in the polls, now 90 days before election day and counting, he decides he needs to look positive. I have seen that same bull crap add here in ohio too, it is a joke.

2. I agree
and they are running his ads like crazy here in TN. Al of the locals and even big wigs in Knoxville are fearing that Bush is going to lose TN. I hope he does just so my idiotic neighbors will feel bad....

4. well as far as that ad...
here in Michigan that ad is running too...BUT there is also a negative ad running against Kerry and his flip flops-Kerry's image is on a weather vane??? so both of these messages are being aired...

The DNC has one ad for Kerry....but Kerry is leading in Michigan now like 9 or 10 pts...dont' konw if that is why I don't see more attack ads on bush? hmmm

its amazing though..Bush is trying to appear like a caring guy...do the military families feel he is that caring??? i hope people see right through it...

3. That ad makes my blood boil
Sure, we'd all like to own something...but some citizens don't have the resources to buy. This is a shoddy, transparent pitch to the Haves reinforcing their belief that the Have-Nots choose to be that way. If they had more gumption, they'd buy their own homes and businesses, so screw them for their purposeful choice to be born into poor families. Our doofus president apparently doesn't know that it takes money to make money--and he should, that's the only way HE ever made any.

9. Helluva idea for a Kerry campaign slogan there
" The president is out on the stump speaking of ownership. He has as president thus far increased the amount of the national debt each American, man, woman and child owns by $XXXX.XX!!"
