New Ad Attacks Bush on Guard Service
The antidote to the Swift Boat Veterans ad has made its debut:
Texans for Truth, established by the 20,000-member Texas online activist group, DriveDemocracy.org, has produced a 0:30 second television advertisement, "AWOL." The ad features Robert Mintz, one of many who served in Alabama's 187th Air National Guard -- when Bush claims to have been there -- who have no memory of Bush on the base. In other words, Bush failed to fulfill his military duty while others were dying in Vietnam.
The ad opens with the text, "Was George W. Bush AWOL in Alabama?" You can watch the ad here. The ad script is here. The group is accepting contributions here to get the ad on the air.
