New RNC Ad: Don't Want Al Qaeda To Attack? Then vote GOP.

[RedEarth]

If you don't want Al Qaeda to attack us again, then vote Republican. That's the message in a lurid new web ad that the Republican National Committee has released today. The ad shows footage of terrorists training set to the ticking of a time bomb. After flashing quotes from Osama and other terrorists promising doom to America, the ad concludes: "These are the stakes. Vote November 7th." Most interesting bit: After the ad ends, it flashes a link to click if you want to "vote early" -- an obvious bid to harvest impulsive, fear-driven votes. (See third screen grab below.)

1. Re-running the 2004 campaign?

[newyawker99]

23. Hi RC Quake!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[SharonAnn]

2. Weren't they in charge the last time Al Qaeda attacked in the U.S.?

[Greeby]

3. Idea for a counter-attack ad

The DNC remakes the Daisy ad

In your guts, you know he's nuts! :evilgrin:

[DonMeyer]

4. Rush must have seen the new ad.

He is saying the same stuff on his show.
But notice how Spain threw out their Bush loving goverment and the terrorists haven't attacked since?
The Bush gov't isn't stopping terrorists, it is creating new terrorism and committing terrorist acts themselves.

[Cooley Hurd]

10. WELCOME to DU, Don!!

:hi:

You said, in under 50 words, the TRUTH!

[BOSSHOG]

5. What happened in 2000?

Ignorant conservative motherfuckers voted for the gop in 2000 and lo and behold Al-Qaeda attacked, and they succeeded because bush wanted a terrorist attack. So go ahead insane motherfuckers do the same thing again.

[saltpoint]

6. There's only one attack I want al Qaeda to undertake, and that's the

house of the guy who advertizes that orange cleaner crap on tv infomercials.

After that, though, I want them to disband and plant flowers.

Thank you very much.

[BOSSHOG]

8. Ya Mean THE REAL LOUD GUY????

[saltpoint]

12. That's him. But after him, I want al Qaeda to disarm, disband, and

do the garden thing.

[dkofos]

11. I would prefer they go after that big white house in DC

They really deserve it

[saltpoint]

18. I can't advocate that one, which is not to say that I love the current

inhabitants.

More than anything, I wanted Bush to be repudiated at the polls in much stronger terms in 2000 and in 2004.

I think he cheated both times, but the official results show him the "winner" in both, and in both cases, over two far more qualified men.

My wish for the little shithead is that he live to be 116 years old so he can be witness to the avalanche of negative evaluation of his piss-poor presidency.

[dkofos]

19. He can live until he is 120

as long as he does it in a prison

[Raksha]

22. What kind of flowers? Poppies?

I believe they are already doing that.

[whistle]

7. Ask RNC/GOP: "Who is doing the attacking in Iraq?"

[lpbk2713]

9. "FOUND OSAMA YET?"

Should be our response.



(Caps intended)

[Rex]

13. Sounds like a threat.

:eyes:

[sakabatou]

14. I should make my own vid...

[NewJeffCT]

15. The GOP is the party of surrender & appeasement

1) George Bush recently gave a reason for staying in Iraq is because Osama bin Laden says that Iraq is the central front in his war against the West. So, Bush is in Iraq because Osama wants him there. If Osama says, "Jump" does Bush jump?

2) Bill Frist recently advocated bringing the Taliban back into the Afghan government. Um, didn't we just kick them out 4 years ago because they were bad people who harbored bin Laden?

3) The NIE - which has 16 Bush appointees sign off on it - said that the Iraq war has made more terrorists.

Do you really want to take a chance with the GOP?

[Dawgs]

16. Like I said earlier, counter ad should be...

Show summary of Republican commercial, then respond with...

Don't want another 9/11?
Don't want another recession?
Don't want another failed Katrina response?
Don't want the rest of the world to hate us?
Don't want another nuclear bomb test?
Don't want high gas prices?
Don't want corruption and perverts in Congress?
DON'T WANT ANOTHER IRAQ WAR!!
etc...

then vote Democrat, because...

...all of these things happened under the control of Bush, his administration, and the Republican controlled Congress.

[WI_DEM]

17. it hopefully will backfire on them and if I were the Dems I would say

"didn't 9/11 happen under the Republicans--a GOP president and congress?

[emulatorloo]

20. I do think Osama would be plenty sad if the Repugs lost

since Bush keeps making his day. Sure seemed to like helping Bush out of trouble in election '04.

[catmandu57]

21. Where o where is osama

After five years he should be on death row in Indiana.

[zbdent]

24. Simple counter - "How do the Republicans know that the terrorists

will attack if Dems win? Maybe we should tap their phone conversations to see who they're talking to ..."

[and-justice-for-all]

25. This Fearmongering is SSSSSOOOO 2002...

I hate to break this to the GOP asshats....ITS NOT GONNA WORK THIS TIME ASSHOLES!! THE PARTY IS OVER!
