2. These will not play well
Talks about "creating jobs" and most people knows he did not. So if he will lie about one thing he will lie about anything.

3. That's the best they can do?
My favorite part is the part in the ad "Forward" that sweeps past the collection of framed photos to Bush and he looks like he's in a stooper.

"Forward" was filled with too much dialogue about fear and terrorism..w/ images of flags and military stuff..the stuff about jobs and health care seemed like an afterthought tacked on at the end.

And the one about John Kerry's 1st 100 days--they talk about Kerry raising taxes by 900 billion dollars, but that number doesn't give any information about how that would really affects peoples pocket books. Raising taxes by 900 billion dollars for EVERY American is really abstract on who it affects, etc..which is precisely why they gave that figure in the first place.

Then, the stuff about him weakening the Patriot Act--if people knew information about the Patriot Act, then they wouldn't be upset, but that's precisely why they named it the "Patriot Act"..so they can make people believe that going against it is unpatriotic.

4. "1st 100 Days" is the worst kind of misrepresentation
I am looking forward to seeing Kerry's ad that dismantles this, exposing this admin's failures in the process. I am so glad Kerry already set the scene for Bush's ad w the crooks and liars comment.
