>>>>>>>A story from The NY Daily News got the ball rolling this time. It quoted different people from an anti-war activist group called “September Eleventh Families For Peaceful Tomorrows.” However, The NY Daily News failed to identify them as part of that activist group. Also chiming in to criticize was a firefighters union that has already endorsed John Kerry for president. That was not disclosed either. The story led to many of the women quoted from article to make the news talk show circuit hammering the president for using the scenes from 9/11.

And they have every right to.

But as the activists made the rounds common phrases were referenced and repeated. Two women made reference to the fact that President Bush was “reading to school children” as the towers burned. Another common theme was that “3,000 people were killed on [President Bush’s] watch. The third talking point was the claim that the Bush administration is not cooperating fully with the 9/11 commission.

It became obvious that this was a coordinated effort.

And this activist group has the right to coach talking points and lead a coordinated effort against the president. They are clear on their Internet Website that they are not happy with President Bush. They have links on their web site to several other liberal activist groups including MoveOn.org, which is currently running attack ads on the president. They are a liberal activist group and with that they carry an anti-Bush agenda. And the firefighters union that has endorsed John F. Kerry for president also has a clear agenda, but the mainstream media failed to disclose either agenda.
