Nice to know Bushco continues to do the terrorist's job for them. Sheesh,
isn't the objective of terrorism to instill FUD? Fear, fear, fear, uncertainy of your safety and doubt about your future?

As his helicopter, Marine One, landed in a jammed stadium, the music from "Top Gun,'' the movie about a risk-taking Navy pilot, blared over the loudspeakers. And it wasn't just any stadium: It was the field where the Boston Red Sox - hometown team of his rival - play their spring training games.

Tad Devine, a senior Kerry adviser, said the new ads, up against Mr. Bush's closing spot showing a pack of wolves lurking in a forest, provided "a classic matchup, the politics of hope versus the politics of fear."
