New Kennedy ad directly attacks Wetterling
Edited on Thu Oct-14-04 06:16 PM by Dickie Flatt
KSTP just reported on a new Kennedy ad that directly attacks Wetterling. Featuring an attack on her MoveOn endorsement and half-speed grainy video of Wetterling. Classy.

You can donate to Patty here.

1. Career suicide
Next thing you know, "If Patty Wetterling can't find Jacob, how can she find Osama?"

This guy is SO going down.

7. Screech Kennedy is so asinine, he just might use that very line
I hope Mark Kennedy's made some plans for what he's gong to do with his life once he's unemployed come November

9. he's holding 'the world' (a globe) in the scene of him and the kids in
a classroom. He's got the whole world in his hands, right?

This anti-Patty ad is so oily, slimy and desperate. They feature pix of swarthy looking terror arrestees and in the next shot show a 'trial lawyer' who has dark hair and eyes - are they trying to equate trial lawyers with the terrorists?

This one is a 'what not to do if you want to win' ad.

3. We can only hope that this will backfire as it deserves to.
Patty has run a clean, positive campaign. Screech is desperate and this ad is proof of that. Wow, attacking a woman who has tirelessly fought for children. Classy, Screech.

4. I saw the ad last night and it was absolutely disgusting.
This will backfire, I promise you. Patty has tirelessly worked for the well being of our children. Regardless of party affiliation, Patty commands so much respect in Minnesota. Kennedy is shooting himself in the foot. Gawd, he is such a pig.

5. Update: I heard a version on the radio today.
On KS95, no surprise there. Repuke-friendly Hubbard.

It is a conversation between two women talking about Patty's "friends" who are giving money to her campaign. One is of course the evil trial lawyers who are forcing OB-GYNs out of business (presumably so they can't practice their love anymore), and the other is the evil liberal group (MoveOn.org) which opposed military action in Afghanistan after 9/11. The women make a point of labeling these "liberal" interest groups, and how they don't represent "our" values.

Then they wrap up by swooning over Screech and how he DOES represent "our" values and how we need to fight the terrorists "over there" so they don't attack us here. Ugh, I was screaming at the radio.

8. This ad contains a big, big lie.
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 08:02 PM by Dickie Flatt
Watch the ad. See how they say Patty has taken $80000 from MoveOn?

Well, that's not quite true. They're $79968 off. Yep: MoveOn has given Patty just $32 dollars.

That's a hell of a lie right there, straight from that man of honor Screech.

11. John Walsh is outraged!
The America's Most Wanted guy.
Commercial on Ch. 4 just before the CBS Evening News.
He said he was a Repub and was outraged at the attacks on Patty Wetterling. No one better prepared to serve in Congress, he says.

He didn't mention that idiot Kennedy by name, though, but we know.

Yeehah!
