2. The best political ad I've seen yet.
Simple, visually striking with a basic truth that noone can deny.

3. This should be running all over the nation! At least the Kerry
remarks have brought the issue into full daylight!

4. Great ad! Vets are from all parties...
and appeal to all parties. May the R's hear the truth from those who have been on the front line.

6. K&R!
Killer video! How can anyone turn their backs on the troops the way Republicans and their supporters have? It is shameful...

8. This may turn the tide in Tennessee!!
I just saw it this morning and at first I thought, "Oh no, it's a G.O.P. ad for Corker", but once I listened in closer I realized that this is exactly what we need to bring a real issue to the forefront and get away from the sleazy anti-Ford ads that Corker has been spamming the airwaves with.

We need to find out how we can get this ad some more air time. Is there anyone in particular that I can contact to see about a donation? I have a professional peer network that would make a significant contribution if it meant putting this out there.

14. The National Version and a link to donate
Clark has this front paged at Securing America.com along with a link to donate and a link to 'add to favorites". Viewing an embedded YouTube video isn't the same as viewing it directly on their site. (The 'hits' don't get counted). So be sure to click the link direct to YouTube.

20. Thanks Texas_Kat
I appreciate the info. I talked to a few coleagues over lunch via e-mail and we are pooling our resources to make a donation today. Hopefully it will help getting this some exposure over the next week.

13. VoteVets
is a brilliant idea. This is the second ad I've seen, and both take a long hard swing and smack bush just where it hurts the most.

They've earned the right to bash him, and no one can dispute that......brilliant. :applause:

18. Let's see Rush make fun of the soldier with only one arm.
Waiting for his mocking poses and snearing.

Why hasn't this ad gotten much news coverage?

26. There is another version on Utube that has more of Clark speaking.
Edited on Thu Nov-02-06 12:19 AM by Clarkie1
I like both versions. I suppose the two versions are playing in different localities for strategic reasons...this version with more of Clark attacks Republican ads more directly.

Clark says, "so if you see commecials telling you to be afraid of terrorism?....remember, it's because of Iraq."
