First Bush Ads Focus on 9/11, 'Steady Leadership'

By Steve Holland WASHINGTON (Reuters) - <snip>

One ad, entitled "Tested," shows, among other images, a damaged building from the World Trade Center ruins behind an American flag..."The last few years have tested America in many ways," the voice-over says. "Some challenges we've seen before. And some were like no others. But America rose to the challenge."...It concludes: "President Bush. Steady leadership in times of change."

An ad called "Safer, Stronger," points to the problems the United States has faced since Bush took office in January 2001, a recession, a declining stock market, a dot.com boom gone bust and "a day of tragedy." ..."Today, America is turning the corner. Rising to the challenge," the ad says. This one is also done in Spanish. <snip>

A 60-second ad entitled "Lead" focuses on what may well be Bush's greatest weakness, the inability of the U.S. economy to generate a lot of jobs despite strong growth. ..."And as the economy grows, the job base grows and somebody who's looking for work will be more likely to find a job," Bush says in the ad.
<snip>

"These ads are expected to reference Bush's 'steady leadership' as president, but they would be remiss to leave out some 'steady' facts when it comes to his leadership: a steady loss of jobs, a steady increase in uninsured Americans, a steady decline in education funding, a steady erosion of veterans' benefits, a steady attack against the Social Security Fund, and a steady rise of the deficit," he (Terry) said.

Bush Re-Election Ads Focus on Past 3 Years

By LIZ SIDOTI Associated Press Writer

ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) -- <snip>"I know exactly where I want to lead this country," the Republican incumbent says in one ad. "I'm optimistic about America because I believe in the people of America."

<snip>Advisers say the ads are meant to show that the country is safer and stronger today because of Bush and to make the case that Bush's policies have put America on the right path.

"We thought it important to start with a setting the table of where the country's been over the last three years," said Matthew Dowd, the campaign's chief strategist.

Dowd called the ads - one 60-second spot and three 30-second spots, including one in Spanish - the beginning of a conversation that will last until the election. He said ads will be on the air consistently but not necessarily every day until Nov. 2.<snip>

1. Uh-Oh - are they kidding? ROFLMAO!

[metisnation]

37. Steady is thy hand

who reachith into the pocket of the working men and women in this country and givth to the milionares so they can wipe their asses with hundred dollar bills.

[saigon68]

65. Maybe CHIMPANZEE McSHRUB can haul out his rubber turkey again

To tell the Amerikan people that no one will go hungry ever again???

My apologies to, " The Salvation Army, St Vincent-DePaul and Paul's Pantry" all of whom are currently running "soup kitchens" to feed the homeless and the hungry in this "Great Democracy" .

Thanks a lot Chimp----- you Mother Fucker.

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. SHOCKING Bush BREAKS

yet another promise, NOT to use 9.11 for politics.

By the way, will the adds include him reading a story about a goat to a kid while the country was under attack? Is that the steady leadership we are talking about here?

[wjittermoss]

61. It should be: "Steady but WRONG leadership in times of chaos."

There is nothing noble in being steady...Saddam was "steady"
If you don't have enough wisdom to change course when things are going wrong or enough humilty to say "I made a mistake" what is so great about your leadership?

[sadiesworld]

3. Clark for VP.

[Nancy Waterman]

5. Note the new talking points words

I have heard a few GOPers lately and the repetition of steady, strong, stable leadership is quite hypnotic. Steady, strong, stable... all comforting words.

I would like to see the Dem talkers out there saying: the GOP is using these words in order to get you to think this way. This is how they propagandize you. The more people are alerted to the process, the less power it has over them.

[rocktivity]

54. I believe in steady, strong leadership

And I don't belive in madmen being allowed to remain in power. That's why I'm voting for Kerry!

:headbang:
rocknation

[Qutzupalotl]

55. Sure he's steady when the teleprompter's working.

But let him try to answer an unscripted question and you see the quavering, equivocation, stammering, and general not-knowing-what-the-fuck-he's-doing.

[rocktivity]

56. Here's another set of talking points from the Tested commerical

"Freedom, faith, families, and sacrifice."

Sacrifice of our freedom, faith, and families because we don't have jobs and our debt is going to last for generations!

:headbang:

[fishnfla]

67. 2 pictures

shrub reading a book to children while the towers burn

the weepy POS crying his eyes out in the oval office the next day

strong and steady my left ass.

[loudsue]

71. I'm hoping they do, too, Nancy...I hope Kerry's ad folks are up to this

They have all the material anybody could every DREAM to have to use against bush....and to FINALLY have an opportunity to inform the American public. At least, they could show enough true clips to make even the fundiest fundies start scratching their heads, and saying "ya, that kinda IS what's been going on. This is NOT good".

I honestly and truly hope Kerry has enough sense not to go too far to center to take bush to the mat. If he does, he'll marginalize himself, and bush has a HUGE war chest to work with. Kerry needs to just stick with the truth, and show people what's true, and he'll have all the ammunition he needs to get the support of the people.

:kick:

And, Sadiesworld, I think Clark would make a fine VP! :loveya:

[MrBenchley]

4. If that's "steady"

I'd hate to see what they call shaky leadership...

[NV1962]

6. Friday, September 14, 2001 The Guardian asked: "Where are you, Mr. Bush?"

http://www.guardian.co.uk/wtccrash/story/0,1300,551678,00.html

How soon they think we forget - how wrong they are.

[derby378]

7. Any quick links to on-line Bush ads?

Sounds masochistic, I know, but I could use a good laugh...

[papau]

12. Bush posts his internet ads at link below - they are not there yet.

http://www.georgewbush.com/news/videolauncher.aspx?ID=731

[papau]

48. The ads are now on the web at link below

http://www.georgewbush.com/tvads /

but page loads very slowly - as in not loading most of this afternoon

[papau]

53. The TV discussion warns that after the nice ads have run - the critical of

Kerry ads - with one contrasting the Massachusetts senator's long record with his rhetoric on the campaign trail - will run.


Meanwhile we must listen to how "the last few years have tested America in many ways" but with Bush at the helm, "America rose to the challenge"...... sigh ...gag

[bif]

8. Yeah, steady as a drunk with the DTs.

Gimme a friggin break!

[radfringe]

9. ummm...if he leads

do we have to follow like a bunch of lemmings going over a cliff?

as I said to a co-worker this morning -- what if we don't like where he's leading?

[sadiesworld]

10. I wonder if some of the (justifiably upset) 9/11 familes

could put an ad together about *'s record of pre-9/11 failures and/or commission stonewalling. How effective would that be?!

[tom_paine]

11. Yawn. And Hitler's first campaign commercial was about the Jews.

So?

Tyrants lie? Totalitarian Haters-of-Democracy-and-The-People lie more effectively and more often and in a more "Orwellian" Fashion.

No news here. Free-Market Stalinists will be Free-Market Stalinists, you know. And that includes AAAALLLL the baggage of all tyrnats anywhere, anytime.

Emperor Bunnypants* is just one of many Totalitarian Scum to put the boot on the neck of The People. Like Hitler and Stalin, though, he commands a powerful enough Empire to be a threat not only to us, but to the whole world.

[david_vincent]

13. More of the same "stay the course" malarkey

It's DANGEROUS to effect change!!! Something could happen!!!
Willie Horton will rape your wife/mother/daughter!!!
How could you let that happen? Better vote Republican!!

[bushisanidiot]

14. "Steady Leadership" Is Allowing 3,000 americans to be slaughtered while

he sits and reads a friggin children's book? The asshole never made a command decision to intercept the hijacked planes! He had PLENTY of time to do so.

George W. Bush is a friggin' PUSSY!!!

[Vitruvius]

60. Damn right. America was under attack for 2 HOURS and Bu$h did NOTHING

Nothing, nothing, nothing!

Bu$h the Commander in Chief was absent from his post on 9/11 until the attacks were safely over. Just like he was AWOL from the Texas Air National Guard during Vietnam.

Once an AWOL, always an AWOL. The only things Bu$h did on 9/11 were (a) flee from one rabbit hole to the next till the danger was over and (b) read a speech somebody wrote for him -- in a shaky voice.

[leesa]

74. I'm sure you didn't mean what you said in your last line

I presume that when you say "pussy" you are referring to a woman? Many women have far more courage than men, so what is your point?

[rhino91063]

15. 9/11?!?!

Why not show a picture of an empty chair at the 9/11 commission. Considering how he has hurt the investigation into what happened, the Dems should be using 9/11 against him!

[underpants]

20. I sense that the tide is turning on his "ownership" of 9/11

This is from friends and such who not only are tired of him getting praise for a miserable failure but using it for a war that had nothing to do with it pisses them off.

This mind you is with no cajoling from me.

[ninkasi]

16. The only place he will lead

is straight into the hell of more wars, more poverty, more job losses, more shredding of our civil rights...if that's his idea of leadership, I have to decline following him.

Promising the United States citizens more of what we've been through since he stole the presidency is not an appealing idea.

[veracity]

17. Here's the Counter Ad to run....

18. Yahoo posters are shredding this slogan into superfine confetti.

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20040303/ts_nm/campaign_bush_dc_3

It's worth taking half an hour to read through the last hundred or so posts, IMHO. :-)

Brin 'em on Georgie Porgie, bring your stupid pre-school-level slogans on, you ugly, evil slime.

[Nashyra]

22. We need a commercial of the *

sitting reading the "goat story" simultaenouly with the 2nd aircraft hitting the world trade center, then with the footage of the hero firefighters working in Manhattan with the quote of the asshole claiming he was getting out of "harms way" then they need a picture of the empty seat of the 9-11 commission with the asshole telling the "bad pilot story" and finish it with the mis leading theme and have them list all the "misleading" actions starting with WMD's. The voice over could reflect the fact that 9-11 should not be politicized but the truth needs to be told so that "it will never happen again" They need to fight fire with fire and of course I agree witht he fact that Clark is the best VP candidate to counter National Security.

They should use that speech that the * uses and they repeat on CNN about waffling about how he was for something and then against and change it to backfire on the * "For no child left behind" didn't fund it. and so on. The whole misleading theme can be used effectively.

[underpants]

24. Add in his Dec.2002 quote about having "..a pretty good year"

~"All in all Laura and I had a pretty good year"

Someone will correct me on that I never get it right but he did say something to that affect.

[CBHagman]

34. "All in all, it's been a fabulous year for Laura and me."

Yes, he really did say that at the end of 2001, a year in which there was considerable post-election bitterness and protesting, thousands lost their jobs, thousands lost their lives, and America went to war.

I heard him make that statement at media availability for some minor matter (such as showing off White House decor). If you Google the phrase, you'll probably get the White House website.

I was always surprised there wasn't more public outrage over that comment. My cousin almost drove off the road when I told her that Bush made that statement.

Mark Crispin Miller, in "The Bush Dyslexicon," includes the quote without commentary, probably because it's just so jaw-droppingly insensitive that it can stand on its own.

[benfranklin1776]

42. You are quite correct.

"But all in all, it's been a fabulous year for Laura and me."

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/12/20011221-2.html

It is reflective of a supremely narcissistic, callous mindset. The world revolves around him in his mind. As Miller has pointed out this mindset evidences itself repeatedly in his inability to acknowledge his many errors.

Well Junior, saying it doesn't make it so. Your "steady leadership" has bankrupted the treasury and compromised the future of every American, your "steady leadership" has alienated our allies and earned worldwide emnity weakening our security, your "steady leadership" has plunged us into an unecessary and brutal war that is claiming lives and draining the treasury to enrich the Halliburton's of the world, your "steady leadership" has rewarded corporations with lavish tax breaks as they ship their jobs overseas, your "steady leadership" has gutted environmental protections and threatened the health of millions. This type of "steady leadership" is, in sum, leading this nation over a cliff into an abyss. See Junior, "steady leadership" means more than dressing up in a flight suit and playing soldier or calling yourself a"war president." True leadership is being able to address the needs and concerns of every American not just those selected few multimillionaires who can pony up 2,500 in pocket change to attend one of the limitless number of fundraisers which you seem to spend all of your time attending. Come November 2, 2004 we will have genuinely steady leadership, not the tawdry Hollywood style cartoonish imitation your handlers have created, and you can look forward to spending all of your time at the ranch clearing brush.

[underpants]

44. Steadily downhill

well said.

[benfranklin1776]

47. Careening down the mountainside comes to mind yes.

They redefine chutzpah.

[barbaraann]

25. But that would make Ed Gillespie cry!

:-)

[underpants]

32. I can see his chin quivering now

Oh wait no I can't

[PassingFair]

45. Oh hahahahahaha!

This is in reference to his "chinless" profile n'est pas?

[CBHagman]

19. "I know exactly where I want to lead this country"

Yeah, that's been clear for some time -- STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!

Sorry for shouting, but the shameless, smirking Bush deserves no less.

Deploy barf bags, people!

[underpants]

21. TESTED?!?! What like at Yale? He wasn't tested in the TANG either

or at least he refused to show up for the testing.

[SharonAnn]

78. Tested and FAILED! Tested and FAILED AGAIN!

There's no doubt he's been tested and there's no doubt that he's failed.

[NickB79]

23. Steady leadership indeed

Like the steady leadership of the Titanic's captain as it went headed towards the big fucking iceberg!!!

[CBHagman]

46. Put that on a poster or button, NickB79!

LOL!

[Crachet2004]

26. I don't think America will want to continually be reminded of 911...

Who wants to be reminded of tragedy all the time? Is that his 'upbeat' message? I hope they spent a lot of money on these adds, because he is identified with 911 alright, in a very negative way! And they still don't have Osama...and you know what? I'm beginning to think they never will.

OBL has a lot of billionaire relatives...and is a hero to many Muslims. I'll bet Bush can't get him. If he is even trying. The recent spate of rumors about him being penned up in Pakistan are probably just propaganda to make us THINK they have a clue, and are trying to get him. I'll bet they have no clue and aren't even trying.


But those adds are like being reminded of going to a close relatives funeral, time after time. I'll bet they backfire. And everyone knows Bush, and most other politicians ran like hell when they (allegedly) thought we were under attack!

So the adds have us rising phoenix like from the ashes-"safer, stronger, etc..."? What a crock. The American people won't buy it.

[leesa]

75. Why do you think OBL was involved with 9-11? Because the Bush

cabal and their trained media said so? Demand proof, don't just make assumptions based on apparently non-existant proof

[Crachet2004]

79. As a matter of fact, I don't.

But most Americans DO believe it. Sorry to say.

I for one, believe we will never know what 'really happened'. We will be 'protected' from the knowledge! Just as we almost always are.

But I am also saying, that guilty or innocent, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a capture. I don't think it's gonna happen. The GOP keeps floating these teasing little tidbits, just to keep the whole thing alive!

They think that keeping fresh the memory of 911 and OBL will help them in the fall. I do not. I think it is like burying a close relative in your front yard, but never filling the grave in.

If that is all they have, I am not worried!

[young_at_heart]

27. He sat in the classroom for 1/2 hr.............is this leadership?

We were under major attack and he did nothing! I don't call that steady leadership.

[Malva Zebrina]

28. right steady leadership

he ain't gonna make it on this because it is obviously more lies. What is needed is for the Dem candidate, and it looks like Kerry, to counteract this stupidity and these lies with real hard facts.
A call in person on C-span the other day thought Bush was a great leader because he gave her back money, in the form of tax cuts. this is what is important to selfish, greedy people--their money returned to them--no matter if there social services have been cut, such as their firefighters, as long as Bush give them back their money--and she said that no president or leader has done that-she was so in love with Bush for doing that--I think she was more in love with herself and her money and the notion that she does not want to give it to anyone else in the society, even if it is the firefighers, who protect her!

This is not a time to be nice to the dictator. I hope Kerry has it in him--I do have my doubts.

It has to be pounded in that Bush is an incompetant man not suited for office and it has to be pounded that Bush has lied about almost everything--and these lies have caused the deaths of ten thousand civilains in Iraq.

Can Kerry do it? Is he up to the task, willing to take the risk? Or is he just playing politics as usual?

Whatever--we are forced to vote for him over Bush, like him or not.

[The_Casual_Observer]

36. Votes are easily purchased

Odds are that the caller received a tax reduction of $20 a month or so
+ the $600. This is probably a windfall to many. A small price to pay for maintaining control of the WH and Congress, so that they can do whatever they want.

No matter want kind of genocide Bush involves the US in, it won't matter to Mr & Mrs citizen, as long as they get a little refund, and he pays lip service to the anti-abortion crusade.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

29. I will give him some credit for his leadership.

I mean running like a little bitch on Sept. 11 2001. Then calling the suspects folks. After that he hid under his bed some more and told a bunch of generals and military-industrial types bomb whatever the fuck you want. Then let's see, oh yeah he used the shock of that event to get more tax cuts for the rich and enlarge NAFTA, etc. Yup he's as good a leader as Cobra Commander on GIJoe.

[underpants]

31. OUCH!

running like a little bitch

[leesa]

76. Truly. The references to females being cowardly is really disgusting

I ver frequently see women being far braver than men. Where do you get off making comments like this?

[GreenPartyVoter]

30. Adding my retch to the community barf pile

:puke:

[bluedog]

33. shouldn't play on 9-11

this ad should backfire on him.as he can say how terrorist did this and that.how he's made the country safer.but>and this is a but....he will only TESTIFY 1 hr behind closed doors with 2 members of the 9-11 panel........this shows hes hiding something and some people may wake up to this fact.

[symbolman]

35. Here's the ad

I just need to shorten it up by about 5 minutes.

http://www.takebackthemedia.com/true911.html

It shows that Bush KNEW and DID NOTHING (sat in the Booker Elementary school for over half an hour reading a book about goats.)

No one mentions the STEADT stream of urine running down his leg while he hid behind the toilet on air force one..

[DoYouEverWonder]

50. Well now anytime I really want to get myself pissed off

I'll just go watch that ad.

Fuck, I think I'm gonna go out and kick shit for a little while. See ya later.

[Zero Gravitas]

38. Steady Leadership

Our Great Leader, War-President Bush is staying the course. He has made his decisions based in good faith on the information available to him and has resolutely made up his mind. He will not turn back from the course he has set for the country no matter how many times it is demonstrated that his path is the wrong one...

Bush* is a fuck up there is no way that the mess he has created can be spun as being a net positive for this country. Even if you give him every benefit of the doubt about his motivations and decision making processes its still a disaster. People are not going to forgive a mistake that cost 100s or 1,000s dead and 100s of billion dollars even if he thought he was doing the right thing at the time. he may have thought it was right, but it turns out it was wrong and at an immense cost.

[JPace]

39. A steady stream of lies......

Month after month and year after year we hear

Just around the corner

Speedily approaching

Quickly materializing
Promptly nearing

Forthcoming soon
Appearing promptly

40. A steady incompetence as we hold on course for the toilet.

41. Steady fear, corruption, fraud, and death

43. anyone have the Cheney quote about not politicizing 911?

[ramapo]

58. Exactly, what a tasteless start to his campaign

They have no shame

[pinto]

49. you just know they think they're untouchable on 9/11...

heard they're going to use some 9/11 type backdrop for the convention in NY.....9/11 families are sickened at the politicization. Pathetic.

[bluedog]

51. remember Daschle.....demanded apology from bush?

2002




WASHINGTON, Sept. 25 —............ leader, demanded an apology from President Bush for saying that Democrats were "not interested in the security of the American people."


In an emotional speech on the Senate floor, Mr. Daschle seized on Mr. Bush's statement on Monday that the Senate, where Democrats favor protecting workers' rights in the proposed Homeland Security Department, "is more interested in special interests in Washington."






Mr. Daschle took offense, saying: "That is wrong. We ought not politicize this war. We ought not politicize the rhetoric about war and life and death."

He added, his voice growing raspy: "You tell those who fought in Vietnam and World War II they are not interested in the security of the American people," because they are Democrats. "That is outrageous."

Nice ads.

I love the fact that they are using Laura Bush in the campaign. She really is a strong point. I doubt seriously that TeRAYsa will be highlighted.

I am impressed with all three spots.

Kerry's staff is going to have to arrange some photo ops for him so they can get shots of him looking more atheletic, more manly, less "stuffed shirt"-ish. He has no chance against Bush in his jeans and denim shirt, pilot suit, Baseball jacket...LET'S SEE, WHICH MAN HAS MORE IN COMMON WITH THE AMERICAN PUBLIC???

59. Freeps are clueless, as usual.

Kerry's staff is going to have to arrange some photo ops for him so they can get shots of him looking more atheletic, more manly, less "stuffed shirt"-ish.

Um...windsurfing, motorcycle riding, playing hockey? Am I forgetting anything? He mountain bikes too, right? And plays guitar?

Geez, they ought to stick him on a horse just to highlight Bush's fear of horses. Some cowboy, huh?

[alarcojon]

63. Flight suit!

I love this one:

To which I say "Bring 'em on!"

[Just Me]

57. What pisses me off is their presumption that our people are THAT gullible!

After having taken advantage of the American people's loyalty and trust, (by betraying both),...now, they insult our intelligence!!!

Believe me,...they may fool all their loyalists all the time,...but, the vast majority of American people will definitely be pissed-off by any further "marketing" techniques. HEY, NEOCONS, YOUR PRODUCT SUCKS AND WE AREN'T BUYING,...buncha' greedy, grimy, chickshit, fabricators!!!! They are worse than either used car salesmen or lawyers!!! YUCK!!!

[wjittermoss]

62. They are not being "presumptious" my friend. Look at the polls.

People are that guillible and people are that hateful that they won't change course even when they know they are wrong and/or when they know they are hurting many others.

64. Main theme of *'s campaign: "It's not my fault"

66. Yes, Bush was a 9-11 leader, all right. He made sure 9-11 was done.

The Idiot Usurping Lying Dictatorial Weasel made sure bin Laden was flown to safety, etc., even though all flights were grounded for three days. Isn't it amazing what your boss can do for you in a crunge?
