Rant - I am so sick of watching these whiny women trash Kerry
The new Swift Liars ad is nauseating and I have see it at least 20 times today. At least when I went to Costco to buy Farenheit 9/11 I heard two Kerry ads on the radio.

11. That's no bet!
Clearly they haven't learned the truth or they wouldn't be saying what they're saying.

2. Almost made ya wish the power hadn't been restored?
Ah, the sick choices we are forced to make!

Glad to see that you can get to Costco. Life must be resuming in Florida.

3. We were the lucky ones in FL
Little damage and only lost power for a little over 24 hours after Charley. I wish others had fared as well.

16. Looked like the Florida polls I saw after Cheney/Edwards debate
leaned VERY heavily in Edwards' favor. Was I just imagining that? Are Floridians mad at Bush? Have the government disaster checks cleared the bank yet? Or are they still in the mail?

What's the situation? Do you know?

8. I think SW Fl Dem is talking about
the women whose husbands were shot down in Vietnam. If you aren't in a swing state you probably don't have the pleasure. I'm in Wisconsin and I hear them every 10 minutes. It is so disgusting. They say how they heard Kerry say everyone of the men in Vietnam committed atrocities. As I said in post above, I'm sure back then they didn't know John Kerry from John Paul Jones.

7. Is CostCo a membership only store?
Is it similar to Sam's Club or more similar to Wal Mart?

21. Costco is membership only.. But it's a GREAT place!
They support democratic causes, they actually take CARE of their employees, and they just kick ass on Walmart. I love shopping there.. they are a big company, but not a huge conglomerate/republican joint.

23. Costco is a member only store.
We don't have Sam's Club out here so I can't compare. Wal Mart is owned by Sam's Club, I think, and sells everything at cut rate prices. We have a lot of Wal Marts in California.

Costco caters to people who buy in bulk and they carry top-of-the-line products such as computers, television, furniture, etc.

15. What Are They Saying That Hasn't Been Said
While I saw a string earlier about a Slimeboat bombshell picture, there hasn't been anything new these bastards have added to the political landscape.

I'm just glad they're wasting their money like they are. I know they're running heavy in your part of the world, but whose left for them to influence?

17. Sorry, ladies, but before they got shot down, your husbands
only saw combat from 10,000+ feet. Kerry saw combat at ground level. Two totally different scenes.

And as far as too many veterans are concerned, your husbands may have been Navy, but they were no brothers of theirs.

Your husbands at least got a heroes' welcome when they came home in 1973.

The rest of the veterans had to beg, cajole and shame the public and the government into recognizing them, building a memorial and holding a parade (finally done in 1982)

:nopity:

18. The really sad part is
their husbands would have had to endure even longer periods of torture if brave citizens like Kerry had not spoke out to the leaders of this country to end the war. Unless they were rescued or escaped they were POW's until the end. Aside from the fact these "ladies" mention their husbands were shot down over VN and as pilots they would not have been the ones committing these crimes.

20. the problem is that it's hard to feel any sympathy for them
and i think for the ad to really work they should bring out sympathetic feelings in people. but they don't. they come off as a bunch of nasty mean hags.

22. Glad Kerry is on the radio. In some ways this medium is more effective.
I too am sick of the swift liars wives. It's on in my area extensively. They really want Virginia bad. So nasty to denigrate war Veterans.
