Isn't that what Bush is saying? Has anything Moveon has done been proven a lie? Kerry has supplied witnesses and caught these people impeaching themselves...why is that point not getting across?

1. Good analogy
I do think there are some legitimate questions about 527's but the key point, as many have said, is not that the swift boats exist, but that they are lying.

overpaid talking heads are so self obsessed, they are no longer capable of doing research, or of critical thinking , nor do they even bother troubling themselves with distinguishing between minute details such as truth and falsehood.

9. I'm not saying it is, I'm ntot saying it isn't
I'm just not sure either way. The polls don't give a clear picture and I'm sceptical of them anyway.

6. Great point. But right now Bush is controlling the debate by asking McCai
McCain to help stop all these kinds of ads. It's the Republican way of changing the subject when they see they are losing the debate. Kerry should not let this happen and the Dems should call McCain on it also. Until they can prove that anyone connected to the Kerry campaing has helped or funded the anti-Bush ads, Kerry should not back down.

8. LOL! You're exactly right!
Isn't it frustrating? I'm just hoping that the point IS getting across to real people. I'm hoping it's just the ignorant news heads that pretend like it's not.

10. Bush is being two-faced
Edited on Thu Aug-26-04 11:10 AM by Armstead
At the same time he is going on a jihad against groups like Moveon, the GOP is busy putting together their own 527's.

The only reason the GOP doesn't like them is cuz the left was smarter about putting them together and using them this year. So Bush is trying to defuse one of the weapons we have to counter the Big Money the GOP collects.
