Posted by Thought you might like to see the latest TV ads for the GOP primary run-off in the 2nd Congressional District.
Here’s the latest Harri Anne Smith ad in .wmv format. (Came out last night, I think.)
Here’s the latest Jay Love ad in .mov format. (Came out today.)
No time now for anything other than these links. Perhaps later I can see about making them more user-friendly.

Sitting back, loving this. Pass the popcorn…
Hey BrightFan – Bobby is a pretty good pol, and he has an excellent staff. No one is better than Anzalone. If Love’s people think they can keep running this snow job about his record clear through November they are crazy. That is why it has to be addressed NOW.
Anzalone will cite chapter and verse on all the untruths whether Harri Anne’s people do or not. That is why Mike Hubbard sounded silly when he told Smith to lay off of his buddy Jay. I don’t think Bright will spare Love the roundhouses . . .
This stuff will come out. I am shocked it hasn’t been used earlier. If David Grimes had tghe money, you an be sure the real Jay Love would have been introduced to the 2nd district in the primary.
They’ll know the real Jay by November.
get real, over 27% of the posts on this thread are by you, saying the exact same thing ad nauseum. its obvious you work for either Bright’s or HAS’s campaign, otherwise you’re probably about to be fired for the amount of time you spend on this forum. give us full disclosure of which camp you work for, so those without a vested interest can give what you say a little more, or less, merit
Here’s more honesty for you guys. I work for neither Harri Anne or Bright, and if you look at some of my posts on these boards you’ll find criticism of both of them.
I do not believe either of them is the best possible congressional candidate for this district. But neither of them has based their campaign on untruths, as I know Jay Love to have done.
If Jay ran on his actual record and confesssed to the way he beat Bob McKee, hey I might even support him. But he is being deliberately dishonest, and that is the worst possible path to Washington.
I would like to point out that several posts back I challenged you to find something ion my posts that was not true, as you kept calling me a “liar.”
You still have nor done so. I guesxs I have repeated that challenge “ad nauseum” as you have kept referring to my posts – all factual – as “lies” ad nauseum.
I have not lied on this board, and I highly resent you calling me a liar – especially as you have not shown anything I have advanced on this board to be a lie. Not once.
Hey Sunshine (i.e. Get Real) – the Bob McKee race is over – nice that you are no longer bitter.
July 15 can’t come soon enough.
As a final thought, here is a quote from “Time” that hits to the heart of why it is important to notice – and call attention to – the untruths used by politicians to get elected:
“When our politicians try to deceive us, when they slant reality or dumb down the details, it makes us want to turn off the television and put down the newspaper. It chips away at our faith in democracy.”
you’re chipping away at any attempt to be taken seriously with all these comments – you made your point 52 posts ago. And you have to get over being called a liar yourself, I don’t think it is hurting your credibility as a person – that is, unless your first name is, in fact, “Get.”
Danny, 16 of the last post have been by the same person repeating the same thing. Since his or her first post, 45.7 of the post on this site have been by Get Real. Please either block repetitive post or release the IP address of the poster so we can see which staff (harri or bright) he is on.
Just wondering if anyone else noticed former House Representative Riley Siebenheiner in HAS’s add?
Harri Anne Smith’s AEA contribution is non existant check the records.(ive done my homework) Look at her report. Moreover, your still not responding to the other things I say in my post. I will repeat my question….Someone answer his AEA contribution from Paul Hubbert (his mortal enemy?), explain amendment 1 and how he voted for each tax seperately, and explain his actions against Bob McKee if he is such a christian. Come on now I know your not going to try to side step this. Where is your answer TLee, Comment by More Liars posting (#42), and anonymous posters galore.
I understand that political campaigns regularly cast their own candidate in the best possible light and opponents in the worst possible light by interpreting circumstances in the best and worst possible ways.
For example, Democrats do often recast Republican supported bills into new bills with new Dem sponsors to take the credit. So… some can believe their arguments that Love has supported bills that eventually passed, while others make the point with conviction that no, Love has not sponsored these bills that passed.
Another example: one side will cast somebody who voted for Amendment One in 2003 as voting for increasing taxes and somebody who voted against it someone who votes against taxes.
The other side may say a candidate voted for Amendment One because it gave the people the right to have their say on the matter and that it was not otherwise a vote for taxes; it allowed for the people’s will to be heard. They may say that somebody who voted against Amendment One was voting against the people’s right to speak on the issue, and why would that candidate vote against the will of the people being heard?
These things cut both ways. Take different interpretations, mix in supporters’ passions for their candidates, and it can be a combustible mix while the truth is often in the middle.
No one will later regret being civil and kind over these matters, I am confident.
[...] The last TV ad for state Sen. Harri Anne Smith accuses GOP primary opponent state Rep. Jay Love of voting “for higher income taxes,” trying “to raise taxes one billion,” and voting “for Alabama’s largest tax increase.” The specific votes cited on screen for these claims is House Bill 1 on June 2, 2003. (See the screen shots below. Click on them if you want to see them bigger. See the ad in .wmv format here.) [...]
FYI …. This is the correct spelling of “separately”. I have seen it used several times and I’ll give you a secret .. There is “a rat” in the middle of “separately” …. as opposed to “seperately” .. Thus, your spelling lesson of the day!
