Excerpt below from the video description at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2KEcni6ggs

FACT: Webster sponsored a bill to create a form of marriage that would trap women in abusive relationships.

(St. Petersburg Times, 11/21/97; 1990 H.B. 1586)

FACT: Webster is an advocate for a group that teaches that mothers should not work outside the home.

(St. Petersburg Times, 2/16/97, 9/28/03; Sarasota Herald Tribune, 3/09/97)

FACT: Webster would force victims of rape and incest to bear their attacker's child. (St. Petersburg Times 11/17/96)

THOSE are the facts.

Don't let Daniel Webster make the laws we will have to live with.

5. Great ad. Sets the record straight. Still, Grayson should apologize for the other
ad in another ad repeating what is said here. Grayson needs to show that he takes responsibility if he makes a mistake.

19. The problem is the other side NEVER apologizes. What about the WMD lie?
I know that maybe Grayson went a bit too far in calling the other side a Taliban. But religious conservatives need to take a close look in the mirror. That image is gaining on them as the gleeful tea baggers gain control of the bully side of their brains.

And considering you are using energy on making the good guy stay extremely good, the bullies are laughing because look what they get away with:

10 trillion dollars hoarded out of the world's economy. That's 12.5% of the World's economy. this causes starvation, war, crimes, etc. And this is just for starters. Profiteering off cancer causing foods is another boon for them. etc.

9. PERFECTION! this ad displays the PERVERSE mindset of Daniel Webster - If you're in this district,
VOTE, and if you're not, please consider donating to Grayson's campaign. He needs it.

11. I am in his district
and of course I vote. Unlike many Dems across America, we have someone to vote FOR, not just someone to vote AGAINST. None of us need any direction to get out and vote.

And there are far more Grayson signs in my neighborhood than Webster signs.

12. But the christian fundamentalists are like the taliban.
Their world views are very similar and the chrisitan fundementalists ARE striving to create a theocracy, its as simple as they MUST be stopped.

15. All Dems have to do is tell the truth, Repubs have to lie.
Repubs can't run on their records. The truth to a Republican is like a cross to a vampire.

Alan Grayson is fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

18. I think this is the better ad.....
...But I'm reluctant to support Grayson now. His last ad really hurt the party down south. Never misquote or take out of context, Republicans have that covered.

22. You're kidding, right?
Grayson is one of the good guys. He's a member of the progressive caucus & his votes reflect that, he consistently stands up for US as opposed to the members who stand up for corporations, and he's refreshingly forthright & candid. And wonderfully blunt. I'd be BEGGING to have Grayson as my representative. I don't have much money to donate to candidates, but I give what I can to those I consider really good. Grayson got one of my bigger donations (and I live in NC with an asshole blue dog rep, who hasn't gotten a penny of my money).

33. lol... really. nice attempt to slam him for the Taliban Dan ad NOT putting it together clearly for
people that didn't know that calling him that meant that his policies he's PUSHED for in Florida, as a legislator, are as nasty, anti-women, anti-victim as anything we've seen.

You're reluctant to support Grayson? I'm reluctant to believe you're a liberal. The difference is someone who would subject women to being raped and having the rapist's child, and a man that stands for civil rights for ALL of God's children. You need to quickly wake up and ignore the poorly produced, but accurate ad.

32. ALL Democrats should be attacking the despicable greedy lying hate-mongering corporate republicans
Edited on Fri Oct-08-10 04:47 PM by LaPera
on their record, ideology and arrogant lies & propaganda & their elitist agenda of just saying no (obstructionist) if the legislation is meant to help the people - instead of their rich and corporate contributors.

The republicans disdain of the poor, the middle-class and the tens of millions of educated skilled honest workers, as well as true small business.

The republicans care only about taking from the workers and giving it to their own, the rich and their slimy corporations - ATTACKING the republicans is the ONLY way for Democrats to expose them and for Democrats to WIN!
