i heard it on the radio...

it's amazing

i'm reading some commentary that it isn't as effective as the first ad...

i disagree

after hearing it and then seeing how the kerry campaign was trying to stifle the distribution (ban) of the book "unfit for command"

i sent a contribution....and will probably send more

Is the new ad the one at www.swiftvets.com? Powerful stuff.

On a lighter note how about a joke:

Kerry was going to visit the Catholic National Cathedral outside Washington as part of his campaign.

Kerry's campaign manager made a visit to the Cardinal and said to him, "We've been getting a lot of bad publicity among Catholics because of Kerry's position on abortion and because he has lied about his explots in Vietnam, and defamed the character of many Americans that served in Vietnam. We'd gladly make a contribution to the church of $100,000 if during your sermon you'd say John Kerry is a saint."


The Cardinal thinks it over for a moment and agrees to do it.

Kerry shows up, and as the Mass progresses the Cardinal begins his homily. "John Kerry is petty, a self absorbed hypocrite and a nit-wit. He is a liar, a cheat, and a thief. He is the worst example of a Catholic I've ever personally known. But compared to Ted Kennedy, John Kerry is a saint."
