President Bush says a veterans' group should stop television ads criticizing John Kerry's war record.Well...not exactly.
The president's criticism of the ads by Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth came as Bush denounced all TV ads by outside groups attacking both Kerry and himself on Monday and called for a halt to all such political efforts.You want Kerry to join you?!? You arrogant little snotweed - Kerry denounced the MoveOn spot almost two friggin' weeks ago, and challenged YOU to do the same for the Swift Boat Liars' commercial. You were pushed to the wall to answer the challenge, you little lying twit.
"I think they're bad for the system," he said.
When asked specifically whether the ads by the group "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" should be halted, Bush said: "All of them. That means that ad, every other ad. Absolutely."
"I can't be more plain about it," Bush said. "I hope my opponent joins me in condemning these activities of the 527s (political groups that sponsor to ads). I think they're bad for the system."
God, this guy is one XXL sleazebag in a size 38 suit. But at least the NBC story adds this:
Bush's comments did not satisfy a broader demand from the Kerry camp and Sen. John McCain, one of Bush's own key supporters, that "the Bush campaign should specifically condemn the ad,"Voters - On November 2nd, condemn George W. Bush, please.
