Huh... well yes I'm anti-Bush, but shockingly that doesn't make me anti-American, nor does it make anyone who feels that the Bush administration is one of the worst things to happen to the US. You'll note that I have never stooped to your level and insulted all Americans (as you have Canadians), my insults and critizism has been directed against individuals and/or groups that I disagree with or oppose.
Now an intelligent person might realise that the actions of these Swiftboat Veterans are incredibly damaging to the moral credibility of the GOP campaign (at least abroad), as are some of the other ethical interesting actions taken on the campaign trail - case in point the whole screened and prepared audiences that Bush has in his question periods. The reason that the CBC did some investigation into the ad controversy was as a media analysis of an attack ad's reception in the voting public, and how these ads are made (basically were the money comes from). They showed and discussed ads from both sides, and delved into the politics behind the ads... it's just the Swiftboat ad was particularly singled out for it's lies (not bending of truth) and it's finacial ties to the Bush campaign, and the history of the makers of the ad - same guys who attacked McCain's service when he opposed Bush. The conection to the CBC and the ads was a comparison to the US public reaction to the Swiftboat ad, and the Canadian reaction to the ad - and how it compared to the now infamous (in Canada) attack ad against Chretien, which ended up costing the Conservatives the election and nearly their existance.
