What do you want to bet that Kerry doesn't give a "flying swift boat" about the truth?

The Swift Boat vets relayed to friends after the news conference that the Kerry campaign threatened to have their tax exempt status revoked if they went public. This has been completely missed or covered up by journalists. Remember at the start of the news conference, when one of the guys said, "you don't mess with (or threaten) Swiftees!" ??? That is to what he referred. They created a sub-organization to keep themselves within legal limits.

More details on this story, including a cool video of John Kerry wondering where all his friends went, can be found here.

What's missing from this news item is a response from Kerry's campaign, or any mention that a response was requested.

"Good for them! I hope they get heard by the general public soon."



Amen to that!

A full front photo in the link given in post #30. But it's rather small.

38.8% of those I served with support me.

Actually, it's 8.7%. Two of 19 officers in the photo, and none of the four who were out on patrol.

2 of 23 overall, and they both work for the Kerry campaign...

Some of those photos belong to the Navy - they can be used for anything. That's how HCI wound up using Travis' photo in an anti-gun ad.

Maybe, but it's still a sleazy lie.

They could make a great anti Kerry ad out of this situation.

It would go like this.

The first photo is one in which John Kerry is pictured with the men he served with. The next picture excludes those who oppose Kerry's candidacy.
