This is just the preview of what's going to happen the day after the election, no matter how large a margin Bush wins by.

if they were lying..well, that would be even worse so... what would they have to gain? Nothing!

They've been paid off by the Bush administration, just go ask the DUmmies... They know ALL and see ALL... Just ask them!

Plus...All these vets are liars and all of the vets that stood up for JFin'K were honorable, true veterans that believe in truth and justice!

Hack!! I almost lost my lunch!

I dont understand the difference between the Swiftboat ad, which is NOT being endorsed by elected officials, and F911 in which elected officials(read democrats) commented on a private screening..

I can not recall this type of event ever happening. But I knew this was going to be a blood letting election. (Not real blood)

I bet a lot of these TV stations will decline to show the commercial because of the mere threat of litigation.

And a lot of local stations will now show it on the local news for free!

Sure takes a load off Hillary's mind. Her greatest fear now if that if Kerry wins, there may not be a country left to screw up when her turn to run for President comes.

Hannity Radio Show is on now. He is going to talk to some of the men in the Swift Boat ad.

They aren't threatening to sue the Swift boat Vets, they are threatening to sue the stations that carry the ad. It much easier to demand censorship and get compliance from the liberal media. What needs to be done is for the swift boat vets to issue letters threatening to sue if the stations refuse their ad.

I've been waiting for this and am surprised kerry didn't similarly threaten the authors of the prior and upcoming books revealing his actions. Says how much he knows the visual media is a killer on such issues.

I am also pretty darn sure the Swift Boat Vets for Truth have had long and consequence-laden discussions with a battery of attorneys, excellent legal minds, about what they would be facing if they stepped into the limelight to expose the slime. IMO, they are acting with equal, though a different form of, courage compared with 'nam.

And if kerry wants to bring it on, I believe he'll regret it, because these guys outnumber him and the mood of the country has been changed since he "testified" before the US Senate in 1971. Kerry doesn't seem to have comprehended the depth of the change or what it means. Or that his Senatorialness won't protect him in a lawsuit THIS big if he initiates it.

Something tells me the Swiftees are hankering for their day in court if it comes to that.
