Bush's bashing: new ad campaign questions Dems' patriotism

In its first TV commercial of the election campaign, the Bush administration comes out with a cheap shot, impugning Democrats for criticizing his bungled war on Iraq: "Our war against terror is a contest of will, in which perseverance is power," he says after the screen flashes the words, "Some are now attacking the president for attacking the terrorists." As MoveOn writes, "The ad doesn't question opponents' ideas, it questions their commitment to America. But there is nothing more un-American than attacking an adversary's patriotism for political gain." Help fund ads to set the record straight.
