DCCC PULLED THE "NEW DIRECTIONS" AD - LOOK...

ON my computer I get a radio spot about John Hostettler...

Let me know if I am wrong...

1. If true, that means no contribution from me
I was waiting to see if they'd pull it. If they didn't, I was going to send them money. I'm not supporting spineless wimps.

13. Never a good move to hand money over to the DCCC
unless you like them deciding who should get your money. I prefer giving directly to the candidates who reflect my views.

I often disagree with actions of the DCCC, such as this chicken livered pulling the ad stunt.

15. I always contribute to candidates
I was going to make an exception in this case, but I'd decided to wait to see if the spine transplant took this time. Nope.

2. Yep it's a radio spot about the raise...
is the ad nowhere else on the site?

:grr:

They better not have changed their tactics just because two wishy-washy "let's pull our punches and let them deliver the serious beatings" dems wrote a whiney letter!

3. Why shouldn't they? It's now being circulated for free by the Repukes!
I want it on a DVD, so I can drive around with a giant plasma screen on top of my car playing the commercial over and over.

10. Damn good point! If the DCCC thinks they can keep it from being
spread they are way, way wrong. They should keep it on the front page and add John Murtha's latest on the real cost of the Iraq war.

14. True, but...
If they've pulled it, they've as good as admitted they shouldn't have put it up in the first place.

FLIP-FLOP. For once, can't they stand for anything?

18. It's on YouTube? Then we'll just spread it ourselves, like with Colbert
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UurfouWoqs&search=flag%20coffin">link

Let's show the DCCC what it REALLY means to fix what's wrong with America with what's right with it (if you'll pardon the expression)!

11. The coffins are displayed for nano-seconds...there is nothing to be
..."offended" about at all....This is simply another case of the rethuglicans welling 'jump' and the Dems asking 'how high'....

Fucking spineless, gutless little turds.... :grr:

I mean seriously, if they won't stand their ground for this, what the fuck WILL they stand for?

21. It's a bigger dishonor to our troops to ignore their sacrifice
and try to sweep it under a rug.


("coffens"?)

28. What will be the policy position
once this war escalates? The same as the neocon approach? Events may tell us as things unfold. I'm nervous.
