Gold Star Families/Cindy Sheehan ad to Air on Crawford Cable TV

It is extremely effective and hopefully it will get a lot of play for free on all the news stations.

"Video: Mother of fallen soldier asks questions of President Bush
John Byrne

The above ad, paid for by Gold Star Families for Peace, will air on Crawford cable channels near Bush's ranch. The total ad buy is currently $15,000. The group plans to air the ad throughout August and wherever Bush visits during his vacation.

Sheehan's son, Casey, was an Army mechanic who was killed just five days after arriving in Iraq.

"He was only 24 and he died in his best friend?s arms," Sheehan says in the ad, directed at President Bush. "Casey was so good and so honest why can?t you be honest with us?"

"You were wrong about the weapons of mass destruction-you were wrong about the link between Iraq and Al Qaeda?you lied to us and because of your lies my son died," she ads

powerful when you hear Cindy's voice.

5. True. That is why I reposted it. I think it should be getting more

attention because if you actually listen to the ad, it is extremely effective and covers the WMD and AQ issues.

It needs to get more play. I hope we can get it on the front page so more people will actually watch the ad itself.

2. I hope Bush is half in the bag

when he sees this. Cindy will be his "Ghosts" of Iraq past, present and future.

If you do not mind I will put it up because it is so worthy and I do not believe you have enough post to do so. A thread was started for your message at http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4330554

People may want to ask you questions. I hope you have time to attend that thread.
