Sorry for the confusion earlier.

Here is the verbatim TRANSCRIPT I wrote out from the audio archive of today's show on Ruch Limbaugh:

Swiftboat Veterans for Truth has more than 250 members, many of whom were wounded or highly decorated in Vietnam.

We purchased with our blood and service the right to be heard, to set the record straighr about our unit, and to tell the truth about John Kerry's military service record.

We respect Senator McCain's right to express his opinion and we hope he extends to us the same respect and courtesy, particularly since we served with John Kerry, we knew hi well, and Senator McCain did not."

by Rear Admiral Roy Hoffman (ret.)

Hannity's going to talk about something Carl Limbacher from NewsMax just sent him. It's about comments McCain made in the past concerning Kerry's anti-war activities.

Excellent. Thank you, Rob. This is still the first full transcript of the swiftboat veterans response to John McCain. Maybe we can get it moved to post #1 on this thread?

Thanks.

Looks like the Bush admin. is backing away from this.
