I remember not so long ago conservatives waving their jaws over the first amendment infringements of McCain-Feingold. Which passed Constitutional muster. Now, Bush is calling for the ending of all 527 ads. Seems to be a major flip-flop.

The honest answer is he's ALREADY denounced specific ads he didn't want to be associated with - 2 months ago. Which Bush has not done. I doubt that Kerry will, since it all seems to be working in his favor. These smear attacks just make Bush look like the small, mean man he is, a man with no accomplishments to run on. Besides, neither one of them legally has ANY WAY to stop the 527 groups, since they are prohibited by law from coordinating with them in any way.

Kerry dissociated himself and denounced the MoveOn.org ad which attacked Bush's character. On the other hand, the Swiftboat ad had a person in it who was officially on the Bush campaign. A night and day difference. And we wonder why Bush has still not come out and denounced the ad.

It has the Bush campaign's hand written all over it. And he cannot denounce a violation of law?
