HUMAN EVENTS has obtained a copy of a scorching new television advertisement addressing Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry's record in Vietnam that has been produced by Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth.
The group is a non-partisan "527" organization whose membership is limited to former military officers and enlisted men who served in Vietnam on Navy Swift Boats or affiliated commands.
The group says, "Senator Kerry misrepresented his own actions and those of his fellow officers and men."
Swift Boat Veterans for Truth is chaired by Rear Admiral Roy Hoffman, USN (ret), and includes on its steering committee John O'Neill, the naval officer who took over John Kerry's Swift Boat in Vietnam and who is the author Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry, an upcoming book from Regnery, a sister company of Human Events.
In Unfit, O'Neill reports that what he learned convinced him -- and the majority of veterans who served directly with Kerry -- that "John Kerry was and is unfit for command as a Naval officer, let alone as commander in chief of the Untied States."

Vietnam Vets Organization Blasts Kerry in New TV Ad
'Bout damn time!
HOOOOOLLLY SMOOOOKES! That is powerful. Very effective. Very very effective.
I damn sure am!
BUMP!
"My name is Steve Gardner. I served in 1966 and 1967 on my first tour of duty in Vietnam on Swift boats, and I did my second tour in '68 and '69, involved with John Kerry in the last 2 1/2 months of my tour. The John Kerry that I know is not the John Kerry that everybody else is portraying. I served alongside him and behind him, five feet away from him in a gun tub, and watched as he made indecisive moves with our boat, put our boats in jeopardy, put our crews in jeopardy... if a man like that can't handle that 6-man crew boat, how can you expect him to be our Commander-in-Chief?"
-- Steven Gardner
The above quote was from a press conference given at the National Press Club in Washington on May 4, 2004. You may view Steven’s comments at the following web site. Just scroll down to Steven’s picture and click on it.

Searching through that web site, you will find 250 men who served on Swift boats, including the entire chain of command above Lt. Kerry, agree with Steven Gardner that Kerry is not fit to be Commander-in-Chief. That compares to the 13 crew members who support his candidacy.
Is this going to air?
bump
WOW !! Awesome Video!
If I knew how, I'd pay for for a spot on my local station out of my own pocket.
Awesome ad!! Thanks for posting the link.
It's supposed to begin airing tomorrow.
So sweet coming from a GOP 527. "Take that and Shove It Soros!"

I totally agree. I am going to send a donation to them today. I cannot imagine a better advertisement to having running that shows the true John Kerry.
Now this is a good effective ad.
Oh my word...what a powerful ad!!! We DO need to send them money so this ad can appear in every state thousands of times!!!!
