That's nice. Why not explain why Kerry didn't attend 3/4ths of the
Senate Intelligence Committee meetings he was supposed to be at.

It's true that Kerry missed a lot of meetings, and he should have done
better. It's also true that he left the Senate intel committee well
before 9/11 (though you wouldn't know that from the Bush ads).

The Bush ads have nothing to do with him missing meetings.
During the time he was supposed to be there, he wasn't there 3/4ths
of the time. Hell, he even felt it was so unimportant that he
didn't stay on the committee, apparently. So, the commercials should
say "not only didn't he go to 3/4ths of the meetings he was supposed
to, he felt it was so unimportant a subject that he quit the
committee entirely in (year). And now he wants to run the country?".

It's also true that Bush has spent 42% of his presidency on vacation
at either his Texas ranch, Camp David, or Kennebunkport.

Yes, and? Are you proposing that he isn't working when he's
at these three locations? Can you back up that assertion?
