The Repukes used wolves in an ad against Kerry. They must be running out of nasty ideas.

5. OH COME ON!
We got to smack this one down, that psychopath went in to a group of pups den and shot them in the head.
There has to be a 527 started Now showing the cruel vicious hunting practices that she participated in.

This country is loaded with animal lovers, what's the viewership on Animal Planet. Expose her for what she is.

15. Do you have a source for that?
That strikes me as unusually cruel, and might indeed cost them some support if publicized.

27. No, the part about her personally shooting wolf pups.
The aerial hunting stuff is bad enough, but that is just incredibly sadistic.

32. Good info at that link --
Edited on Wed Sep-10-08 02:55 PM by Veruca Salt
The media is currently looking into reports that state officials implementing one of the aerial wolf killing programs illegally killed five-week old wolf pups just outside their dens. http://www.defendersactionfund.org/newsroom/sarah_palin.html">source here

It doesn't explicitly state that Failin is the one of the officials; but it's still a sick tragedy and she still gets blame because it's her program. If she is one of the unnamed officials being looked into, she should be shunned by society.

7. I'm just shaking my head here. Have they not heard about the aerial hunting
and the bounty on wolves? At least the ones they showed in the ad still had all their legs. This should win an award for irony.

11. I don't think this is as effective as the 2004 ad.
This is just stupid.

Says to me they are getting worried about all the dirt flying around about Palin.

37. In order to be effective,
this type of propaganda has to be subtle.

This is clumsy and crude. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

14. Since Palin shot wolves, this is saying Obama's people should be shot
Certainly by the same logic as lipstickgate.

That might actually be the message.

Even if not, McCain should (but won't) be absolutely ashamed of himself for having not a single thing about the country's future and only relying on scare tactics. He hates America so much.

16. That is the most fucking retarded commercial I have ever seen!
McCain's campaign is rotten, just like their ticket. They stink to high hell.

24. I will say this though...

As an attorney, I do like the fact that the lawyers are depicted as such beautiful creatures, instead of, say, a pack of weasels.

25. I like how John McCain's face comes as a surprise.
Cause based on this ad...you've already forgotten he exists by the time he shows up. "I'm John McCain and I approved this message." You're who? How come you get to approve messages about Sarah Palin? Oh, wait...you mean you're on the ticket too?

And nobody on their side apparently has any trouble with the fact that McCain has been rendered virtually invisible by his running mate's media celebrity. I guess they like that Bush/Cheney dynamic so well, they decided to replicate it this time too.

30. Too late, unless it's really witty for a wolf ad
the Republicans will just twist it into some lame Maverick theme of her shooting the wolves in their boring, lame, rehashed commercial.

campaign; hence, McCain = Bush = McSame!!

33. Given Palin's stance on aerial shooting of wolves, and killing the
pups in their dens, I consider comparing Democrats to wolves tantamount to declaring open season on us and putting a bounty on our heads.

Incitement to murder, IMHO.

35. I would think
Palin would be smart not to mention wolves--as she commits hate crimes against them.

Bring me the left hind leg. Disgusting.
