Gee, last night I saw the "Wolves" ad 2 1/2 times & 10 seconds of "Eagle"
on CNN. I left work early to pick my wife up from the airport and turned on CNN when I got home. Crossfire played the ENTIRE "Wolves"ad as did Wolf ( hehehe) with a mention of the "Eagle" ad (shot of the flag raising on the hill and the eagle in flight - CUT )

So I guess this ad is going to be like the "Swift Boat"ers first ad which I never saw on actual TV. I saw the whole thing ad nauseum as it was "discussed".

Come to think of it I only saw a day of "reporting" on the "Texasvetsforthetruth" with Mr.Mintz who WAS THERE and never saw W.

Shameless.

3. I am waiting for the reports that it was filmed in Canada
I don't know where it was filmed but it wouldn't surprise me.

Every time I saw it (on ABC WNT too-forgot that one) they mentioned that it is 5 months old but held back because it tested so well with focus groups.........W uses focus groups??? :wow:

BTW- check this out if you haven't before http://www.wolfpacksfortruth.org/

2. Olberman played the entire eagle ostrich ad.
Keith played both ads completely through. He also said the eagle ad was scheduled to begin running sometime next week.

I really liked the eagle/ostrich ad. The message was very clear, and you have to laugh at the ostrich!

9. Which ad didyou watch?
The one I saw began with an eagle soaring through the sky with background talk about open minded thinking and freedom, and then switched to a cartoon like ostrich and words about standing firmly in one position with your head in the sand.

7. Bill Maher last night...
made an excellent joke about that ad. I myself haven't seen it. He said, "Karl Rove said they would have aired it sooner, but with their environmental policy it took them 6 months to find a forest."

Bill Maher ROCKS!

8. This was also great from Maher...
talking about the unit that refused to go on it's mission in Iraq and said soldiers HAVE to follow orders, but if you dont, remember what happens to soldiers who dont follow orders....they become POTUS and showed chimp in his flyboy suit. The audience went WILD!

14. Thanks to starroute; don't miss this response to "Wolves"
http://www.wolfpacksfortruth.org

With lefties that have that much creativity and talent and that response time, they haven't got a chance.

Is it so wrong to love Alpha Frank?!
