GOP to air ad warning of terror attacks

12 minutes ago

(snip)

The ad portrays Osama bin Laden and quotes his threats against America dating to February 1998. "These are the stakes," the ad concludes. "Vote November 7."

Brian Jones, a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, said the ad would run on national cable beginning Sunday, but he declined to discuss specifics of the buy.

The commercial tracks with Republican Party strategy to make the war on terrorism a central theme of this election. It will air as recent polls show Republicans losing ground as the party best able to combat terrorism.

The ad displays an array of quotes from bin Laden and his top lieutenant, Ayman al-Zawahiri, that include bin Laden's Dec. 26, 2001 vow that "what is yet to come will be even greater."

1. Excellent reminder about how Bush has done nothing to catch him.

The democrats should run a counter ad citing that Bush did away with the Bin Laden unit.

2. Exactly - hope they play it often

and remind everyone what an dismal failure the Republicans have been

[fooj]

4. And should play that soundbite of his over and over and over...

"I don't really think about him much."

Then they should put up the article that quotes Sen Lott as saying that the President doesn't spend his days thinking about Iraq or Bin Laden. That should work out just fine.

5. absolutely.

12. IMHO

No need for an ad push by dems. spots here and there but, GET OUT THE VOTE.

3. This will backfire. nt

6. Wow, the Thugs really are working for Al-Quedia!

That was the scariest Al-Quadia add I've seen yet.

Why our they working together?

10. .

You sometimes really have to wonder whether the Gop makes the best spots for the terrorists.
No one scares the public better than this administation.

7. .

Isn't it strange that the Gop can still milk for the third election now their greatest blunder concerning national security that killed 3000 people? They were in charge, they had the specific and imment warnings of people who knew what they were talking about but they did nothing.
In fact, Bush took a vacation for a month. Yet they run on being strong on national security and claim that the Dems are weak.


The suggestion of post 1 was pretty good for a spot though. As Clark pointed out numerous times, Bush let Osama get away.

8. Are they not afraid this will backfire?? Or,

are the american sheeple really that stupid??

[onenote]

9. WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!

Now, back to Dancing with the Stars.

[zanne]

11. They've played all their cards.

Game over.

[grytpype]

13. Do they think it's a good idea to remind people that bin Laden is alive?

[Cozmosis]

14. Pretty much the most despicable thing a national party has ever run

Does nothing but inspire fear. As if you needed another reason to hate Republicans.

15. You know Rove is in trouble when he repeats the same game plan...

[pa28]

16. Still not scared enough to vote Republican.

Instead of putting plastic sheets on their bed maybe they should ask Bush why Bin-Laden is "not a priority".
