Swift boat group ignores Bush, airs new ad (lying headline!)
Edited on Wed Sep-01-04 01:41 PM by Democat
The Vietnam War veterans who have attacked Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites)'s account of his military record and his actions as an anti-war protester in the early 1970s released a third television ad Tuesday - and said more are coming.

O'Neill said the Swift Boat Veterans plan to release more ads in coming weeks. How many will depend on how much money it raises, he said.

O'Neill also said the group will continue to run ads in cities that Kerry is visiting in an effort to grab attention from the senator's national campaign.

This article, which is on the front page of Yahoo.com, is a nearly 100% pro-Bush, anti-Kerry ass kiss. The article is a chance for the writer to talk about each of the Swift Boat Lies without mentioning they are lies.

The article is like another Swift Boat ad itself.

2. They are not IGNORING bush, they are doing his bidding...
his and Rove's. Bush has NEVER condemned the Swift Boat Liars nor asked them to stop advertising.

4. What do you mean by "ignores Bush*"? Bush did not denounce the
swift boat lies (maybe I missed it in the news)

As usual.

Does Kerry have a media response team to contact the media and correct factual mistakes and unbalanced "news"?
