I agree, but the "gap" is what the dems made President Bush explain. Now, it's their turn. The news conference is a major blow to the Kerry campaign, but, so is the march on Washington by the Antii-Kerry Viet Nam Vets. Over 100,000 are expected on September 12th, and, I've seen some estimates as high as 250,000. That will be VERY hard for the press to ignore!!

How can it be a press conference when the press doesn't show up or report it?

The same way there can be a photo op without photos. Look for Kerry's recent crash on his family's bike.

there ain't no point in dissing dirt until AFTER we know who we're fighting. we might have a lot of dirt, but we have limited resources to hurl it with. the worst is yet to come - the dems are doing themselves in, we have less need to chew them up now.

If a tree falls in a forest and nobody is near to hear it, does it make a sound? :)

We need to get the truth out about Kerry, yes -

but only enough to help people decide not to vote for him. We still want him to be the Dems man in November.

I can't wait to see the press conference reported tomorrow by Dan Rather, Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings, Aaron Brown, Ted Koeppel, Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, etc.

I will believe it when i see it.

Me too. If this hits the major news media then it will hit Kerry hard and I will be elated. If not then it will just be like dust in the wind.

"John Kerry is a traitor! End of story!!!!!"

That didn't stop Clinton from serving two terms in office.

I see the almighty hand of Hillary Clinton in this. Her Cabal and Husband will clear the way for the Senator to 'save the party' and run.

The direct link to the CNS story is here: Kerry 'Unfit to be Commander-in-Chief,' Say Former Military Colleagues

It's brutal: "'What is going to happen on Tuesday is an event that is really historical in dimension,' John O'Neill, a Vietnam veteran who served in the Navy as a PCF (Patrol Craft Fast) boat commander, told CNSNews.com. The event, which is expected to draw about 25 of the letter-signers, is being organized by a newly formed group called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.

'We have 19 of 23 officers who served with [Kerry]. We have every commanding officer he ever had in Vietnam. They all signed a letter that says he is unfit to be commander-in-chief,' O'Neill said.

O'Neill, currently a Houston, Texas, based attorney, is no stranger to Kerry. O'Neill served in the same naval unit as Kerry and commanded Kerry's swift boat after Kerry returned to the United States. Kerry's command of the PCF boat lasted four months and ended shortly after he received his third Purple Heart. According to naval regulations at the time, any sailor who received three Purple Hearts could request a transfer out of the combat zone."

I think this about covers it myself:

Gen. Giap Thanks Kerry & Co. for Anti-war Protests

Celebrating the 29th anniversary of the fall of Saigon, the North Vietnamese general who led his forces to victory said Friday he was grateful to leaders of the U.S. anti-war movement, one of whom was presidential candidate John Kerry.

"I would like to thank them," said Gen. Vo Nguyen Giap, now 93, without mentioning Kerry by name. "Any forces that wish to impose their will on other nations will surely fail," he added.

Reuters, which first reported Giap's comments, suggested that the former enemy general was mindful of Kerry's role in leading some of the highest-profile anti-war protests of the entire Vietnam War.

Before the British wire service quoted Gen. Giap, it noted:

"The Vietnam War, known in Vietnam as the American War, has become a hot issue in the U.S. presidential race with Democrat John Kerry drawing attention to his service and President Bush's Republicans disparaging Kerry's later anti-war stand."

North Vietnamese Col. Bui Tin, who served under Gen. Giap on the general staff of the North Vietnamese army, received South Vietnam's unconditional surrender on April 30, 1975.

In an interview with the Wall Street Journal after his retirement, Col. Tin explicitly credited leaders of the U.S. anti-war movement, saying they were "essential to our strategy."

"Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio at 9AM to follow the growth of the antiwar movement," Col. Tin told the Journal.

Visits to Hanoi by Kerry anti-war allies Jane Fonda and former Attorney General Ramsey Clark and others, he said, "gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reverses."

"We were elated when Jane Fonda, wearing a red Vietnamese dress, said at a press conference that she was ashamed of American actions in the war," the North Vietnamese military man explained.

Kerry did much the same thing in widely covered speeches such as the one he delivered to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in April 1971.

"Through dissent and protest [America] lost the ability to mobilize a will to win," Col. Tin concluded.

Sure, no surprises here.

But now find out how the national press corpse covers (ignores) this same story!

I thought it was "If a tree falls in the forest, and the redneck with a chainsaw is looking at his crushed pickup, did he really say 'Hold 'ma beer.' "

W was in the National Guard, Kerry was in the after-duty reserve -- quite different. Why waste energy on a phony issue?
