Kerry rapid response to Bush ad

[Cocoa]

long response, but here's a good part:

Bush Went Golfing Day After Getting Report titled, "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S." "As dawn broke over the rolling hills of central Texas, an 18-car motorcade roared past fields of grazing black Angus cattle, carrying George W. Bush and his presidential retinue from his ranch near Crawford to a morning round of golf. The day was Aug. 7, 2001, and the sun, glowing orange as it crested the dark treeline, was already hot. Bush, sporting a maroon-and-gold Polo shirt, was upbeat as he arrived at the Ridgewood Country Club, and he teased reporters about the weather. "I know a lot of you wish you were in the East Coast, lounging on the beaches, suckin' in the salt air," he said. He, by contrast, welcomed a chance to work and play in the 100-degree Texas heat. 'I find that to be a good part of keeping me a balanced person,' he said. If Bush was rattled by a daily intelligence briefing he had received the day before, titled 'Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US,' he didn't show it. He spread his arms wide and told reporters, 'I'm enjoying myself.'" (Newhouse News Service, 4/19/04)

1. Holy Crap!

Kerry needs to use this *every single day* from here on out.

"You think George Bush will make America safer? One August 6th George Bush was told by the CIA 'Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US'. You know what George Bush did the next day? *Went golfing*. Instead of defending America, he went *golfing*."

Kerry needs to repeat this in every single campaign appearance, in every single speach, repeat, repeat, repeat.

The "Security Moms" need to hear this loud and clear.
