Make sure your email list sees this: Kerry CAUGHT in a lie. Remember when he stated he never used the word "liar" against Pres Bush? New Kerry Ad Says Bush Lied About Debate 03-Oct-2004 NEDRA PICKLER WASHINGTON (AP) -- John Kerry on Saturday looked to frame the next presidential debate in a speech criticizing President Bush's economic record, but also tried to get in a final word about their last face-off by declaring himself the winner and Bush a liar. "George Bush lost the debate," an announcer says in a television ad Kerry's campaign unveiled Saturday. "Now he's lying about it." The Democratic presidential candidate's accusation came two days after his first debate with Bush, when he told moderator Jim Lehrer that he avoids saying that the president is lying to the American people. "I've never, ever used the harshest word, as you did just then," Kerry said to Jim Lehrer. "And I try not to, but I'll nevertheless tell you that I think he has not been candid with the American people." Kerry spokesman David Wade said the Massachusetts senator's new ad will run at least in all the places where Bush airs his own new ad called "Global Test." The Bush ad is scheduled to go on the air Monday on national cable networks and in select local media markets. That ad refers to Kerry's comment in the debate that a pre-emptive strike must pass "the global test where your countrymen understand fully and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons." The Bush ad called it the "Kerry doctrine," and asked: "So we must seek permission from foreign governments before protecting America?" Kerry's campaign insisted that its new ad would run. However, at least three such response ads it produced over the past two weeks never made it to the airwaves and were used solely to generate news coverage. Kerry campaigned in Florida Saturday for a second day since Thursday's debate on foreign policy. While Bush held huge rallies in the Midwest battleground of Ohio, Kerry gave a 45-minute speech in Orlando outlining his economic agenda. Kerry's economic case against the president built on the criticisms that he lodged against Bush's leadership in Iraq. He said Bush "is a man who can't see a problem and can't fix a problem." Bush campaign spokesman Steve Schmidt said the economy is recovering under Bush, and he contended that Kerry's policies will end the progress. "John Kerry's policies will derail the economic recovery and mean that every American sends more money in taxes to the federal government," Schmidt said.
