Of course, Sean Hannity of Fox News and right-wing radio fame, fails to understand the significance of the ad.BREITWEISER: My husband, Ron, was killed on September 11th. I've spent the last three years trying to find out what happened to make sure it never happens again. I fought for the 9-11 Commission, something George W. Bush, the man my husband Ron and I voted for, didn't think was necessary. And during the commission hearings we learned the truth: We are no safer today. I want to look in my daughter's eyes and know that she is safe, and that is why I am voting for John Kerry.

On the October 19th edition of Fox News' Hannity & Comes, democratic strategist Kirsten Powers faced Hannity's ignorance:
Well, that makes sense Sean, figuring you didn't even graduate from college! Even Hannity's official biography fails to mention this fact. You see Sean, if you would have completed you college education, maybe you would actually understand what you read, see and hear. Instead you are just an idiot. (You probably would still be an asshole though. That could not be fixed.)HANNITY: What they've done here is they're exploiting the war on terror and they're basically in that ad blaming George W. Bush for what happened.
[...]
HANNITY: Is George [W.] Bush responsible for what happened?
POWERS: No, and I didn't see anything in there [the ad] saying George [W.] Bush is responsible for 9-11.
HANNITY: What's the suggestion, though, George [W.] Bush didn't keep us safe?
POWERS: What, Sean?
HANNITY: Is that the suggestion? George [W.] Bush didn't keep America safe? George [W.] Bush could have done a better job with that?
POWERS: I just don't see that when I watch the ad.
HANNITY: I do.
