Transcripts
Transcripts of Booknotes programs are available at Booknotes.org.
C-SPAN does not provide transcripts of other programming.
I called the National Press Club (where the Swift Boat news conference took place), but they told me that it was a private event that was held there. They claim only to have transcripts of their speeches and newsmaker events. Thus, no Swift Boat transcript from them.
Maybe, the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth (click here for their web site) will eventually have a transcript, but none is on their web site now.
You can watch the news conference via computer by opening this file with your RealPlayer program rtsp://video.c-span.org/project/c04/c04050404_antikerry.rm (this might work automatically if you click right here).
If the link and/or instruction above don't work to view this via computer, try going to this web page (click here) and then clicking where it says: "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth Press Conference on Sen. John Kerry (D-MA)."
Finally, if that doesn't work, just go to C-Span home page and type in "swift boat" for a video search in the upper right. When you get the search results, click where it says: "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth Press Conference on Sen. John Kerry (D-MA)."
It sure is choking me up...The horror of what JF Kerry did to our homecoming soldiers, turning many into falsely ashamed alcoholics, and manufacturing the slaughter in Vietnam upon our withdrawal...The blood of millions is on Kerry's hands...The horror...the horror....The horror!
John F Kerry is one of the worst war criminals and traitors of our time.
