Texans for Truth AD BUY

[newsguyatl]

Their ad http://texansfortruth.com/ goes up September 13 in the following areas:

Harrisburg, PA
Columbus, OH
Portland, OR
Phoenix, AZ
Detroit, Lansing, MI

The group says those areas were picked because they have had high numbers of soldiers killed in Iraq. The buy is primarily cable: CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, A&E, Discovery, Lifetime, USA Network, History Channel, TBS.

The buy $110,000, but they are raising money online and plan to spend more.

2. I gave a few bucks, so I'm happy to see it'll run in Phoenix.

I'll be watching for it.

On edit: I didn't read the reason behind the ad buy in Phoenix before posting. :-(

3. YES!!!

Now lets just get this on all of the television news stations! Excellent work everybody! I heard they raised a ton of money in a really short period of time yesterday to get these ads on the air!

4. How Many Served In Alabama's 187th Air National Guard....

... at the same time Bush* claims to have also served? Were there enough who served at the same time that anonymity would be possible?

5. I gave $100.

Give them $10, or whatever you can spare.

9. not sure on numbers

but one guy, john calhoun, came forward in 2000 saying he remembered bush there. he's the only one though.

but the 187th's former commander, william turnipseed, in 2000 told the boston globe that he would have remembered bush had he reported for duty­ and that he didn't recall seeing him.

7. Detroit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll have to send them money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now, since we are sending money to them and Democratic is in our name and we volunteer and support Kerry, does that mean that this is coordinated with the Kerry campaign? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

8. i'm sure more money is on the way

That was a very good ad!

[Lex]

10. I'm giving money too!

These guys are NOT like the Smearboat guys--these guys are telling the TRUTH. The Smearboaters were just making stuff up and lying.

That's what makes the difference to me. LIES such as the PROVEN LIES of the Smearboaters should be pulled off the air.

11. The buy is only $110,000? Heh heh heh...
