New email from Bush crap...explaining why it is great they used the nazi a
Dear Pam,

On Thursday, the campaign launched a web video titled Kerry's Coalition of the Wild-eyed. The video featured Democrats who support John Kerry making negative and baseless attacks against the President. Interspersed in the video were segments of two ads that appeared on a website sponsored by MoveOn.org - a group campaigning for Kerry - in January.

On Friday night, John Kerry's campaign denounced our use of these ads, and called that use "disgusting."

The Kerry campaign says, "The use of Adolf Hitler by any campaign, politician or party is simply wrong."

We agree. These ads, like much of the hate-filled, angry rhetoric of Kerry's coalition of the Wild-eyed, are disgusting.

Where was John Kerry's disgust when he hired Zack Exley - the man responsible for encouraging the production of these ads as part of a MoveOn contest - to run the Kerry campaign's internet operation?
Where was John Kerry's sense of outrage when Al Gore, just yesterday afternoon, compared the Bush Administration to the Nazis saying, "The Administration works closely with a network of 'rapid response' digital Brown Shirts who work to pressure reporters and their editors for 'undermining support for our troops.'"
Where was John Kerry's anger when Al Gore in May spoke of "Bush's Gulag"?
Why has John Kerry not denounced billionaire and Democrat Party donor George Soros for comparing the Bush Administration to Nazis. Soros stated, "When I hear Bush say, 'You're either with us or against us,' it reminds me of the Germans. It conjures up memories of Nazi slogans on the walls, Der Feind Hort mit ('The enemy is listening')."
Why has Kerry not spoken out against filmmaker Michael Moore who last October compared the Patriot Act to Mein Kampf. "The Patriot Act is the first step. 'Mein Kampf' - 'Mein Kampf' was written long before Hitler came to power."
We created this web video to show the depths to which these Kerry supporters will sink to win in November.

Is this the Democratic Party of Franklin Delano Roosevelt who reassured his countrymen we have nothing to fear but fear itself?

No. This is John Kerry's Coalition of the Wild-eyed, who have nothing to offer but fear-mongering.

Sincerely,

Ken Mehlman
Campaign Manager

13. I Know You Are But What Am I
Every time Bush is accused of anything his people sound like school children.

I Know You Are But What Am I
I Know You Are But What Am I
I Know You Are But What Am I
I Know You Are But What Am I


I wish I had recorded Hanity auguring with a group of 17yr old high school students he had on as guests last week.

It was priceless.

3. typical M.O.
they didn't defend or otherwise offer explaination for the use of Hitler in the ad -- they just changed the subject and blamed someone else.

meanwhile - Join the Coalition of Wild-Eyes

9. Would buy one of these, except...

...the phrase is "wild-eyed", not "wild-eyes". They should change it.

5. Notice that Mehlman doesn't deny that Bush did any of the above.....
....Nazi fascist things, he's just trying to spin it so Kerry, Gore, Moore, Soros, Dean, FDR, and every other Democrat is to blame for it.

11. Coalition of the Wild-Eyed disputes rhetoric of Coalition of the Willful
MoveOn was NOT campaigning for Kerry in January

MoveOn has also continually attempted to disassociate its management from those ads. Jack Exley never "encouraged" the production of those ads. It's called freedom of speech, Mr. Mehlman, and it was a submission by a couple people who genuinely believe bush is like Hitler. So what?

So, Kerry is expected to produce a litany of diatribes against anyone who speaks out against bush? Give us a break already. The man would never have time to eat or sleep.

:eyes:

(Yes, I intended the word "willful." That's exactly what they are, and it's not a flattering adjective.)

20. I agree with you Rat
They can just keep repeating what we are saying right here on the net. I have no problem with that. They can do the advertising for us!

They fail to understand the difference. Kerry and his campaign are not refering to Bush* as Hitler. We, the base are. However, Bush* and his campaign are referring to Bush* as Hitler.

So, who is officially sending out the Hitler message? Three guesses and the first two don't count.
:crazy:

19. They want to make Hitler comparisons? BRING IT ON!!!
In this country, secret detentions, militarism, nationalism, smearing of political opponents as traitors, giving law enforcement unlimited powers and creating a domestic climate of fear and mistrust.

And in Iraq, midnight raids, confiscation of firearms, closing down opposition newspapers, bombing of civilians, plundering a nation's natural resources, war profiteering, torture and murder of prisoners (most of whom were innocent) to say nothing of initiating a war under false pretenses.

Yep, I'd be pretty wild-eyed about that kind of stuff too.
