Texans for Truth ad: Bush AWOL in Alabama
Texans for Truth, established by the 20,000-member Texas online activist group, DriveDemocracy.org, has produced a 0:30 second television advertisement, "AWOL." The ad features Robert Mintz, one of many who served in Alabama's 187th Air National Guard -- when Bush claims to have been there -- who have no memory of Bush on the base. In other words, Bush failed to fulfill his military duty while others were dying in Vietnam.

I thought it was a parody--but it's real! See? Dreams CAN come true!

But should Kerry denounce it? Why should he if it's true?

Maybe I'll split the net proceeds for my buttons between them and MoveOnPac.

5. EXCELLENT ad. That is very cool. Maybe the media will play it for free
like the Swiftliars' ad.

Only this one is TRUE--where WAS George? Nobody saw him there!

8. drivedemocracy.org?
Never heard of them. 20,000 members? Gee! We ought to be able to get some of them to do these errands that need doing.

Such as finding George's old TX drivers license number. Yes?
