AP: Group's anti-Kerry flier features school kids in gas masks

[ryban]

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - With the image of school kids in gas masks, a new campaign flier is warning South Florida voters that the consequences of a John Kerry presidency "are too frightening ... to imagine."

The attack ad is one of five fliers sent this week by a group of conservative Republican activists called the Florida Leadership Council. The group's leaders include Cory Tilley, a former top aide to Gov. Jeb Bush, and David Johnson, former state Republican Party executive.

The gas-mask flier includes a fragment of a fake news story datelined from "FLORIDA RED ZONE" and dated Aug. 14, 2007. In the story, President Kerry warns parents and children that they'll have to wear radiation and chemical protective gear "for the foreseeable future" because of a dirty bomb terrorist attack.

Tilley defended the ad, saying it raised a legitimate issue. He said the group also wants to counter liberal groups such as MoveOn.org that have aired ads attacking President Bush.

The only thing people in any state have to worry about is the raping of our enviroment from repukes. Shrub would pimp his mom on the front lawn of the white house if he thought it would bring him some votes.
