&lt;\/a>MONDULL VP CANDIDATE GERALDINE FERRARO: You want more for your kids than you have, and that\u2019s the American dream.<\/line>VOICE: Mondale and Ferraro, bringing new fairness to America. While Mr. Reagan tries to slash Medicare; they fight for seniors. While he forces four million people out of work; they fight for workers. And on tax breaks —<\/line>MONDULL: I refuse to make your family pay more so that millionaires can pay less.<\/line>VOICE: They\u2019ll be taking the first step in a new direction for America, Mondale-Ferraro. For your future.<\/line>RUSH: Sound familiar? (Laughing) That\u2019s actually funny to listen to this and to realize what a bunch of antiques and dinosaurs these Democrats are. It\u2019s the same old appeal, and their constituency groups have begun to fracture. Now, here\u2019s this one on the deficit. You\u2019ve got to remember back in the \u201984 campaign, the deficit was a “monster.” They hated it. They thought they were going to bring Reagan down with it, and here\u2019s the Mondull ad called &lt;a target=new href=”http:\/\/www.ammi.org\/cgi-bin\/video\/years.cgi?1984,8,100,x,,”>”House.”&lt;\/a><\/line>[Cheesy horror movie music] ANNOUNCER: After you work for a lifetime to pay off your house, you expect to be free and clear. But in another American house (showing White House) there are plans today to put you $18,000 in debt, your share of Mr. Reagan\u2019s deficits. But when Mondale moves into the White House, he won\u2019t forget about your place. He\u2019ll cut spending, close tax loopholes, and put new taxes in a trust fund to pay off Reagan\u2019s debt. Let\u2019s stop mortgaging America. Mondale-Ferraro. They\u2019re fighting for your future.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019d forgotten about their stupid trust fund. You know, it\u2019s a forerunner of the lockbox. (Laughing) They were going to cut spending. Yes! They are going to raise taxes on the rich. They\u2019re going to make sure your health care is not taken away. They\u2019re going to make sure your Social Security is not taken away. They\u2019ve been crying wolf for 20 years. It\u2019s one of the reasons why Bush got a larger percentage of the seasoned citizen vote in 2000 than anybody expected, because the Democrats have been warning about all these horrible things for more than the 20 years here and they don\u2019t happen, and finally people start scratching their heads. Here\u2019s a Kerry ad, has the same theme as the Mondale ads. Class warfare, “Republican tax cuts for the rich.” Mondull ads, again, 20 years ago, wrong then. Listen to this Kerry ad&lt;\/a><\/line>WOMAN: My husband died of cancer a few years ago. I\u2019m working full time, raising four boys and earn $28,000. I think it makes sense to roll back tax cuts on the wealthiest people in this country. Some candidates want to raise taxes on the middle class. We can\u2019t be taxed anymore. John Kerry is not going to raise taxes on the middle class.<\/line>KERRY: I don\u2019t think we should be asking the middle class to be the people who are going to pick up for George Bush\u2019s mistakes.<\/line>WOMAN: John Kerry understands what\u2019s going on in my life.<\/line>KRRY: I\u2019m John Kerry, and I approved this message.<\/line>RUSH: Okay, my husband died cancer a few years ago, working full time, raising four boys, earn 28 grand, think it makes sense to rollbacks tax cuts for the wealthiest people. How is that going to make your life better, lady? You make 28 grand, people make more than you, their taxes are cut, how is that going to change your life? That\u2019s class envy in a nutshell. This woman\u2019s life is not going to be improved at all regardless of what happens to the rich — unless they do get their taxes cut so maybe somebody can hire her and a satisfactorily more than what she\u2019s making now. But that\u2019s not the point of the ad. The point of the ad is this woman is sitting there suffering. She\u2019s barely getting by. She\u2019s scraping by. Twenty-eight thousand dollars a year, four kids, and the rich are going to get a tax increase under Mondale, rich are going to get a tax increase, and that\u2019s supposed to make her feel better.<\/line><\/p>\n

&lt;\/a>See, that\u2019s class envy. Nothing good happens to you. You\u2019re supposed to be made to feel better because of the so-called supposed misery of others. You\u2019re supposed to sit out there and be made whole by the pain of someone else. So you sittin\u2019 there, you earn 28 grand and the people who earn more than you are going to get a tax increase and you go, “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!” and after you go, “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!” how has your life changed? Hasn\u2019t. You\u2019re supposed to feel better, but nothing has been done. It\u2019s just quackery. It is just pure quackery. Here\u2019s another Mondale ad on foreign policy&lt;\/a>. The first 20 seconds is just graphics, so let me paint the picture. The graphics say, “Central America. Secret war, Nicaragua, Lebanon, Beruit,” and images of flag-draped coffins go by, and then “FAILURES.” So as you listen, there\u2019s just ten seconds of audio in this ad is what you\u2019re going to hear, so let me set the stage again when I get through setting the stage I\u2019ll have them start the audio. Graphics. Imagine before your very eyes graphics, “Central America, secret war, Nicaragua, Lebanon, Beirut,” images of flag-draped coffins, and “FAILURES.”<\/line>ANNOUNCER: With the whole world at stake, it\u2019s time to move on and we must do better. Mondale for president.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: And here\u2019s a John Kerry ad on Mondale\u2019s theme of “we can do better.”<\/line>VET: When the bullets began to hit the side of the boat, the boom, the pow-pow-pow, we found out that John Kerry can lead.<\/line> KERRY: There\u2019s a sense after Vietnam that every other day is extra, that you have to do what\u2019s right. You know it\u2019s right to roll back the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy, to guarantee all Americans\u2019 health care and invest in our kids. That\u2019s why I\u2019m running for president.<\/line>VET: We want better for America.<\/line>KERRY: I\u2019m John Kerry, and I approved this message.<\/line>VET: This man would make a great president.<\/line><\/p>\n

&lt;\/a> RUSH: One more ad, John Kerry and Commitment&lt;\/a>. This is cut 6. Here we go.<\/line>KERRY: As president I\u2019ll set a few clear national priorities for America. First, we will keep this country safe and secure. Second, I\u2019ll put an end to tax incentives that encourage American companies to ship jobs overseas, and third we\u2019ll invest in education and health care. My priorities are jobs and health care. My commitment is to defend this country. I\u2019m John Kerry, and —<\/line>RUSH: All right, that\u2019s it. That\u2019s it! That\u2019s it! That\u2019s it! So about the only thing you can credit them for is that they\u2019re consistent and they stay on message. But they haven\u2019t evolved. It\u2019s the same. Yeah, they ran flag-draped coffin commercials and nobody complained back in 1984. Yeah, right.<\/line>END TRANSCRIPT<\/line><\/p>\n
