The last line of the letter… uh gwayneco please explain how a letter to a TV station asking (not demanding) to not run an ad that has blatant lies crushing dissent? Thank you
Watch the ad, read the letter. The ad lies. Period. The letter appeals to the station asking for journalistic integrity that they not air the ad because it contains these lies. It doesn't demand anything, there is no cease and desist order. Don't believe me, read the letter. Watch the ad. Go to factcheck.org and see the truth. Crushing of dissent. Hello? Enemy Combatants? Pledge signing to see the VP speak? Ringing any bells? That ad and this thread title suck.
I'm going to start my letter writing campaign to theatres around the country urging them to stop running Farhenheit 9/11.
As I am going to get them to stop showing Troy. Come on theaters! You are not going to squeeze an extra $100 out of these movies. End them before the DVD comes out!
This is your right, just as it is Kerry's right to ask TV stations not to air an ad that is full of blatant lies.
No. it's not crushing of dissent, though that's the way it would be played by the media if the situation were reversed and the RNC was sending the letter. I was really just amused by the whole thing. On the other hand .... http://humaneventsonline.com.edgesuite.net/unfit_pdf.html
If a PAC bought an ad on a TV station stating that Bush ate baby kittens, do you think the RNC would not threaten to sue? Guys. Seriously, you can't be this dumb.
Then you'll scream frivolous lawsuit! Damn Trial Lawyers! I have a better idea, why doesn't the right actually try to debate on the issues instead of building strawmen? OMG.... Is T_J really Ed Gellespie?!
By this logic, and equation, you've just admitted for the world to see that F-9/11 is full of lies. Congratulations.
Yes, because it would be a frivolous suit, but I would love to see the DNC ambulance chasers try it. Here's the Swift Boaters response to those DNC legal thugs: http://www.captainsquartersblog.com/mt/archives/002202.php
None of this changes the fact that Bush is a coward who was too much of a wuss to go to Vietnam. Nor does it change the fact that the only crushers of dissent are Lord Cheney and his cronies who require loyalty pledges from those who want to attend their campaign stops.
Good Lord. George W Bush is the King of dissent-crushing. As one journalist recently put it, "This has been the most cowed White House correspondents' group (press group?) in history."
Do you have some military combat service you'd like to share with us...? I think you're throwing the word 'coward' around a bit too freely.
Of course I am. Just like some are throwing around the words 'turncoat' and 'treason' a little bit too freely on the other side.
