CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush (news - web sites) on Monday denounced campaign commercials aired by outside groups, including an ad that accuses John Kerry (news - web sites) of lying about his combat record in Vietnam.
AP Photo Latest headlines: · Bush Denounces Ads by Outside Groups AP - 16 minutes ago · Veterans defend Kerry, criticize Dole AFP - 19 minutes ago · Bush Says 'That Ad' Attacking Kerry Should Stop Reuters - 25 minutes ago All Election Coverage "That ad and every other ad" run by such groups have no place in the campaign, Bush said when asked about the commercial sponsored by Swift Boat Veterans For Truth that has roiled the race for the White House. Asked directly whether his Democratic rival for the presidency had lied, Bush said, "I think Senator Kerry served admirably and he ought to be proud of his record." The president made his comments as the Kerry campaign fought back against charges made by the outside group about the senator's wartime service in Vietnam for which he received five medals. In a conference call with reporters arranged by aides to the Democratic presidential candidate, Navy swift boat officers Rich McCann, Jim Russell and Rich Baker said Kerry acted honorably and bravely and was well qualified to be the nation's commander in chief. "He was the most aggressive officer in charge of swift boats," Baker said. Additionally, crewmate Del Sandusky said at a news conference in Harrisburg, Pa., that he personally witnessed the battle action for which Kerry received Silver and Bronze stars and two of his three Purple Hearts. "He deserved every one of his medals," said Sandusky, a retired computer repairman who drove Kerry's Navy swift boat for nearly three months. In Texas at his ranch, Bush said, "I don't think we ought to have 527s," a reference to the outside groups that have poured millions of dollars over the past year into attack ads. Bush himself has been a main target of ads costing some $60 million. Bush said all of the ads should be stopped. "That means that ad," he said, referring to the anti-Kerry ad, "and every other ad." The anti-Kerry ad, no longer running but much publicized in news accounts, says Kerry didn't deserve his Purple Hearts, lied to get his Bronze Star and Silver Star and unfairly branded all veterans with his 1971 congressional testimony about atrocities in Vietnam. "I couldn't be more plain about it," Bush said "I hope my opponent joins me in condemning these activities of the 527s." With polls suggesting Kerry's standing was beginning to slip — at least among veterans — the Democrat last week called on Bush to call for the attack ads to be pulled from the air. He also accused Bush of allowing front groups to "do his dirty work." Kerry's vice presidential running mate, Sen. John Edwards (news - web sites) of North Carolina, said Bush's comments on Monday fell short of what was needed. "The moment of truth came and went, and the president still couldn't bring himself to do the right thing," Edwards said. "Instead of hiding behind a front group, George Bush (news - web sites) needs to take responsibility and demand that the ad come off the air." Bush's campaign has denied any connection with the anti-Kerry group, and called on the Democratic challenger to join the president in a call for all outside groups to pull their ads. Underscoring the impact of the anti-Kerry ad, the Democratic National Committee (news - web sites) began airing a commercial last week that offered a testimonial to Kerry's fitness for national command. And in a shift in strategy, Kerry's campaign has responded with two commercials, despite plans to preserve its campaign funds for the general election campaign. In addition, Republican Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record) of Arizona has said the anti-Kerry tactics are the same kind used on him and has asked the president to denounce them. A new Kerry ad says Bush smeared McCain four years ago and "now, he's doing it to John Kerry." A former Vietnam prisoner of war, McCain lost the South Carolina Republican primary in 2000 after Bush supporters accused him of opposing legislation to help military veterans. McCain never recovered from that primary loss. Former Sen. Bob Dole, a World War II veteran and 1996 Republican presidential nominee, suggested Kerry apologize for his 1971 testimony to Congress about atrocities U.S. soldiers allegedly committed in Vietnam. Dole, who has a disabled right arm from war wounds, said Kerry received an early exit from combat for "superficial wounds." He called on the nominee to release all of his Vietnam service records. Dole told CNN's "Late Edition" in relation to Kerry: "I respect his record. But three Purple Hearts and never bled that I know of. I mean, they're all superficial wounds. Three Purple Hearts and you're out." Crewmate Sandusky said Monday, "I was there when he got wounded. I saw the blood. I don't care what Dole said." |

Op VRT teletekst
"KERRY MAG FIER ZIJN OP VERLEDEN" John Kerry mag fier zijn op zijn verle- den als veteraan in Vietnam. Dat zegt VS-president George W. Bush, de rivaal van Kerry voor het presidentschap. Bush reageert op de herrie na omstreden spotjes op tv waarin sommige Vietnam- veteranen kritiek hadden op Kerry. De spotjes zijn daarna in verband gebracht met de campagne van Bush. Bush had nochtans eerder geweigerd om de spotjes te veroordelen maar doet dat dus nu wel. Kerry had erg boos gereageerd en kreeg meteen steun van tal van andere oud- strijders. Hij diende ook een klacht in bij de verkiezingscommissie. Laatst gewijzigd door Stefanie : 23 augustus 2004 om 20:45. |

Dus meerwaarde en geloofwaardigheid zakt hierdoor al drastisch. Moore is typisch links, alles doen om anderen te kloten (diegene die net iets beter of harder werken/gewerkt hebben) en ondertussen zelf de zakken vullen. |

Ik heb eerder al gezegt en men heeft er ook onderzoek naar gedaan dat de overdreven anti Bush propaganda na een periode het tegenovergestelde effect zou hebben. Hopelijk krijgen ze daarom met de verkiezingen het deksel op de neus. Net zoals in eigen land gebeurt door de anti blok propaganda en vooral niet luisteren naar de mensen.
