Bush campaign obsessed with Kerry
| Thu, 07-29-2004 - 7:08am |
Have a look at the two websites. The first thing you see on the Bush site is a big picture of Kerry and the lead story about Kerry’s “makeoverâ€, and links to lots of Kerry bashing. I get the feeling that Bush wants to distract from his lack of ideas.

Look at the Kerry website and there is not a word about Bush, only what Kerry plans to do for the country.
I may not like Kerry very much, and I may wish that the Dems had chosen a better candidate, but at least he's not directly engaging in smear tactics, and at least his website gives information on exactly what it is he aims to do.

As far as the war goes, if we don't take a look at what's going on with the environment, we won't have any more wars to fight. No more country to defend. So many other issues that I will get to later.
Bush is a crappy president who is jacking stuff up all over the place. He got us into a war that was not necessary
he went against the United Nations
Beause of him, and his desire to open The middle east as his personal Oil empire, many innocent people are dead
innocent children are dead.
Mothers have held thier dying child and they did nothing.
People like that, so selfish, so greedy, so ruthless... they go to hell.
and MY bashing has had nothing to do with Kerry.
Kerry is a new factor to my hatred of Bush. I like him. He is not like Bush. He is not interested in oil for profit.
There was Bush bashing way back when he stole the election of 2000.
even before that.
But did the democratic party make his cocaine use public? like the Republicans did over Clintons pot smoking in college? HOw about Bush's drunk driving? I mean, there are records of his arrests, he cannot deny those things, and does not.
SO, which Party does the mud slinging?
the incentive.
meaning, they wont get a tax break, or monetary encouragement to do it any more.
Bush on the other hand is illegally using churches to get his message out.

Others have stated it very well. There is a reason for the difference in ads and there is and has been Bush-bashing from every corner of the Democrat Party. In Kerry's speech last night, he talked about Bush, directly or strongly implied, in a negative light. Plenty of Bush-bashing spread out among a lot of other's speeches at the DNC. It's an election year, why wouldn't any candidate try giving reasons not to vote for the other guy(s) and give reasons to vote for them instead (although I feel the Democratic arguments are fallacious & I think many Democrats are more interested in gaining power than loving Kerry as a candidate, but that's my opinion).

AP notes large gap in speech: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=694&e=11&u=/ap/cvn_kerry_fact_check
Talk radio: all bashing of Democrats, any Democrat... all the time.
Bill Clinton and George Sr. would be moderates. Kerry is more to the left of center, GWB is farther to the right than Kerry is to the left.
Are you serious? Here there have been very hostile, hateful, full-of-anger ads against President Bush for months!

OK, put up: Which Kerry/Edwards ads are you talking about?
Maybe you're referring to the 527 PACs like Moveon and their Anti-Bush ads? Those voices are the voices of the American People, not the DNC, not The Kerry/Edwards Campaign.
I live in a swing state and I've seen them all: From Bush, From Kerry, From PACs
