Bush Ad Is "Troubling" Indeed
http://www.factcheck.org/article.aspx?docID=167
The President's ad recycles bogus claims, then tells only part of the story about Kerry's position on tax breaks for couples and children.
Bush released yet another attack on Kerry April 1, an ad appropriately named "troubling." The Bush ad recycles a couple of bogus claims we've de-bunked before -- a misleading claim that Kerry voted for "higher taxes" 350 times and a claim that "Kerry's plan will raise taxes by at least $900 billion." We pointed out previously that the 350-vote figure is so off base that it actually counts some Kerry votes for tax cuts as votes for "higher taxes." And as we said earlier , the only tax "plan" Kerry has proposed is to repeal Bush's tax cuts for those making $200,000 a year or more, while giving some additional tax breaks to those further down the income scale.
...I’m George W. Bush and I approve this message.
