MoveOn's devastating new ad
Saw this today on CNN. Very powerful. very effective.

https://www.moveonpac.org/donate/doesntgetit.html

“He Just Doesn’t Get It” was created by Win Back Respect and features their Band of Sisters, a courageous group of women whose family members served or died in Iraq who are speaking out. It seizes on outrageous footage of President Bush joking about not being able to find the WMDs in Iraq, with a slide showing him looking under tables in the Oval Office. “My brother died in Baghdad on April 29th,” Brooke Campbell says in the spot. “I watched President Bush make a joke, looking around for weapons of mass destruction. My brother died looking for weapons of mass destruction.”

lost her brother over a lie by a spoiled brat greedy for money and oil.

20. as usual, his own words
The best material to run against chimpy always comes out of his own mouth. Like when he said his base consisted of the "haves and have-mores." I remembered when I heard about him joking about WMD's. I was really shocked. My boyfriend (more of a "moderate" than me) said that what really changed his opinion of Bush forever was the scene in F911 where he said "now watch this swing...." It is amazing to me that this is a close race at all. Glimpses of Bush, in his own words, reveal his true character.
