Outrage: DNC Ad Shows U.S. Soldiers Being Blown Up:
The Democratic National Committee has sparked outrage among veterans and others across the internet by running an anti-John McCain ad that shows U.S. soldiers being blown up.
The DNC ad then shows an explosive device detonating near two soldiers standing beside a palm tree. The two soldiers disappear in an explosive fireball.
The footage appears similar to film taken by jihadists who videotape IED explosions that kill American combat troops. The jihadists place the video on the internet to tout their "kill Americans" campaign success. The Army estimates that more than 6,500 jihadist Web sites promote violence against America and American troops.
Many U.S. media outlets have refused to air excerpts from such videos for several reasons - including out of respect of the servicemen and women depicted in the videos.
The DNC apparently does not agree.

Whatsa matter everybody? You don't like the realities of war?
Don't like in your face ? Too bad!That's war...the war many of you applaud! The war many of you wanted!
Now you don't want to see it???? Cowards!
georgie thought he'd hide it by forbidding freedom of the press by not letting the returning coffins be photographed....but the ****** can't stop photos and videos from Iraq from being shown.
No wonder I am a former democrat. They could care less about the soldiers and their families, all they want it power and control.
They want to get out of Iraq, sure they do. They are lying to us all when they say they care about the soldiers, they could care less about them.
They have become a low life group of wacko nuts who have destroyed the party wit their lies, deciet and fraudulent ways.
And they think the rep party is bad, the democratic party is a mess, full of idiots and needs to be overhauled.
Poor choices, bad decisions and lack of a real leader makes up the new democratic party and they will pay for their undermining of this war, if not soon I hope the party pays for it in time because they have done nothing but hurt our efforts to win the war.
EX: latest bill for the soldiers, Nancy Pelosi wanted to add unemployment benefits to the bill. What an idiot!
They have done more to cause deaths of our soliders then helped them.
Someone needs to demand this be pulled or the DNC should be fined 100 million and shut down for being a traitor party. Toss Howard Dean into jail and start right down the line.

Whatsa matter? It's just a scene from a war you love!
Whatsa matter? It's just a scene from a war you love!
Love, are you ok? Its people like you who love to see this because it plahys to peoples hearts, at least those who have one.
Just shows how much you do not know. We are there, we must stay and not make it another Vietnam.
In case you didn't know it, I do not like war at all, but we need to secure the middle east for our own safety.
( read the news on Iran, Syria and NK trading nuke items )
Cut and run democrats should be held accountable for their actions and pulling our troops out too early is a big mistake.
Besides, why do you care about the war, you could care less about the soldiers and you know it.
Just another example of how the democrats cannot be given another chance at running anything like they have the congress. Another democratic total failure.
Get used to the war, we will be there for a long time no matter who wins the WH thanks to the dems cutting off funding all the time we cannot do what we need to do.

Yup, it plays to the heart...which is why neocons like you are against it.
""Just shows how much you do not know. We are there, we must stay and not make it another Vietnam.""
STAY and NOT make it another Vietnam????That's a SuperOxymoron!

Never been a secure Middle East and never will be...it's even more insecure since the war started.
"""Cut and run democrats should be held accountable for their actions and pulling our troops out too early is a big mistake.""
Never has been any evidence of anyone saying we should "cut and run"...it's all in your head.
""Besides, why do you care about the war, you could care less about the soldiers and you know it."""
People who care about the soldiers want the war to end.
Just another example of how the democrats cannot be given another chance at running anything like they have the congress. Another democratic total failure.

Rummy said it would be a three week cake walk...still believe the righties????
""no matter who wins the WH thanks to the dems cutting off funding all the time we cannot do what we need to do.""
The Democrats voted for funding..they're against the war, not the troops
the big deal is that it is disrespectful to the families of the soldiers killed. would you like your death televised for everyone to watch? there needs to be some consideration of the soldiers who have paid the ultimate price serving their country.
