New Bush Ad Blasts Kerry on Intelligence

The Bush campaign has released a new television ad; you can see it here. The ad is titled “Intel.” It starts with a clip of Kerry vowing to reform the intelligence system. It then blasts him, very effectively, for missing almost all of the public hearings held by the Senate Intelligence Committee when he “served” on it. Most devastating is the fact that in the year after the first World Trade Center attack, Kerry did not attend a single Intelligence Committee session. The ad concludes by pointing out that in that same year (1994), Kerry proposed to cut funding for the intelligence agencies by $6 billion. The tag line is: “There’s what Kerry says…and then there’s what Kerry does.”
Good ad.
