I know Iowa is a peace loving state...I cannot imagine this Dean message is acceptable to demos in NYC or Wash DC.

DES MOINES, Iowa, Nov. 17 — Democrat Howard Dean, in a close battle with Dick Gephardt in Iowa, takes his rival to task for backing President Bush on the war against Iraq in the most targeted television ad by a presidential candidate to date. The 30-second spot, at a cost of $250,000 over a seven-to-10-day period, is the first commercial of the presidential campaign to criticize an opponent by name on a hot-button issue.
USING PHOTOS of Gephardt in the White House Rose Garden with Bush, Dean questions Gephardt’s work with the Bush administration in drafting the congressional resolution authorizing the president to use force in Iraq, and Gephardt’s support for the $87 billion for rebuilding Iraq and Afghanistan.
“October 2002, Dick Gephardt agrees to co-author the Iraq war resolution — giving George Bush the authority to go to war,” the ad says. “A week later, with Gephardt’s support, it passes Congress. Then, last month, Dick Gephardt votes to spend $87 billion more on Iraq.”
“Howard Dean has a different view,” the ad says. Dean then says, “I opposed the war in Iraq, and I’m against spending another $87 billion there.”
The ad follows a mailing sent last week criticizing Gephardt for his position on the war in Iraq, including his support for the resolution and the aid package. |
