Bush camp in new attack on Kerry
The TV commercial accuses Mr Kerry of failing to understand the threat posed by terrorists around the world.
It uses comments made by Mr Kerry to the New York Times where he says he wants to get to a time where terrorism is not the focus but a mere "nuisance".

Asked about what it would take for Americans to feel safe again, Mr Kerry said there needed to be a change in outlook.
''We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance,'' he said.
''As a former law-enforcement person, I know we're never going to end prostitution. We're never going to end illegal gambling.
"But we're going to reduce it, organised crime, to a level where it isn't on the rise. It isn't threatening people's lives every day, and fundamentally, it's something that you continue to fight, but it's not threatening the fabric of your life.''

(Heh, what? You can't be serious? Is Kerry giving us a realistic answer to our problems? But Bush will stop terrorism even before people think about terrorizing. Beat that LIBERAL! )
---
"Now Kerry says... We have to get back to the place where terrorists are a nuisance like gambling and prostitution... we're never going to end them," an announcer says in the commercial, which is being shown on cable television and from the campaign website.
"Terrorism... a nuisance? How can Kerry protect us when he doesn't understand the threat?"
---
(Haha, taking a quote and misinterpreting it. Excellent stradegy. "But sir the bomb will not detonate" , "Bomb?... Detonate?". Makes perfect sense, if you're a 9 year old in a coma. )

Whoops
