(sorry, didn't realize the letter was split into 3 gif files)
In working with attorneys, I found that there are a lot of the times when they use intimidation, i.e., "You are not as smart as I am, and I'm holding an Ace-if you don't do what I want, I'll sue you".
It looks like they are bullying, blustering, and covering for two other John attorneys.
Swift boats weren't big enough to have doctors on the boat, so of course he wasn't a crewmate. If this was for the first purple heart, the "doctor" who signed off was a hospitalman first class, i.e. a medic. Sorry you don't get a doctor to sign off for a metal fragment the size of a matchstick.
1. This letter is the first use by the Kerry Campaign of its massive legal division. The Kerry Campaign intends to win this campaign by abuse of the laws by a combination of using illegal contributions, advertisements, and organizations to support Kerry; while using the courts to supress legal acts by the Bush campaign.
2. This letter is probably the first of many letters that will be used to give pro-Kerry TV stations an excuse to refuse to run ads that oppose Kerry. Next will be threatening letters to churches, corporations, organizations, local political parties, and anyone attempting to exercise their right to participate in the political process.
3. The fact that this letter is an empty threat indicates that the Kerry legal team is no more interested in the integrity of the law then they are the integrity of their campaign messages. Lawyers with integrity don't send out threatening "lawyer letters" unless they are actually prepared to follow up with court action.
Thanks for keeping this on top of breaking news!
Sincerely!
