1. BEAUTIFUL!!!

They take it away from the "all 527's" nonsense and RIGHT to the point that this smears all veterans!!

Smackdown! :)

2. I will be surprised...

If this letter is not first spun, then ignored.

3. thanks man

interesting thing is though, all those guys are vets but Corzine I believe, or Carper too. That was really great what Max did, I really hope Kerry has a place for him in his admin because I remember when I first heard about who he was when I was 11, he's a great man and he really fights the good fight with Kerry well.

11. Tom Carper is a vet

16. Navy right?

4. I love it

Great letter and strategy to have Cleland and Rasman deliver the letter. It highlights the issue and that * is hiding at the ranch.

Do you have any insights about what is happening to CNN. They were always biased (after Turner) but they have gotten absurd. I actually switched to Fox because they offered better coverage of Cleland than CNN.

5. Dontcha just love Max...

after what the Bush machine did to him, I don't think I would be able to have such control...

You rock Max!!

6. "not about the tax code or campaign finance reform"

a copy of that letter should be sent to the media whores too, they need to realize what this is about.

It's not about "negative campaigning" either, and not even about Vietnam.

7. Where, oh where is Daschle's signature?

He's an Air Force veteran, and as Senate Minority Leader, you'd think he'd at least CONSIDER signing this. Depressing.

8. "the service of ALL American veterans is questioned"

Careful, George....you're playing with fire here and if you don't back down it'll be YOUR sorry military "service" that'll be brought back to the forefront for scrutiny!

10. bing!

you hit it. This is going to come back and bite him on the back side real quick. If Smear Vets want to talk about military service of the candidates, lets talk. Should be interesting.

9. CNN Reports Max wouldn't give the letter to the land commissioner

and is on his way to where the press is (the stage set with the barn and the hay).

[Texas_Dem]

13. Sweet!

Hope he tells the press that Bush was too chick(hawk) to accept the letter personally. Just like he refuses condemn the ads. Hope he tells the press that Bush obviously feels that military records (or lack thereof) are fair game. Speaking of Bush's military record.....

12. I'd run this letter as an ad in newspapers in VW, OH and WI

Spread the word

[Ridiculous Bill]

14. letter

that is a good friggin letter

[Dick_Tuck]

15. IMHO, Here's the talking point.

Our outrage over these advertisements and tactics has nothing to do with the tax code or campaign finance reform efforts of this nation. Our pain from seeing these slanderous attacks stems from something much more fundamental, that if one veteran’s record is called into question, the service of all American veterans is questioned. This administration must not tacitly comply with unfounded accusations which have suddenly appeared 35 years after the fact, and serve to denigrate the service of a true American patriot.

This gets to the point. The problem isn't 527s. The problem is liars and dirty tricks.
