Dems Plan Assault on Vets
Crush Kerry ^ | 8/08/04 | Crush Kerry admin

Posted on 08/08/2004 11:44:55 AM PDT by Merry

The Democrat National Committee has prepared a full-scale assault against the Vietnam Veterans for Truth to draw their character and veracity into question, according to one anonymous source inside the DNC. The campaign of character assassination is scheduled to coincide with the release of the book Unfit for Command which reveals inconvenient facts for the Kerry campaign.

“We have prepared what we call ‘Brown Books’ that contain damaging military records, personal credit histories, medical histories, psychiatric histories, divorce records, you name it,” our source told us. The “Brown Books” are so-called because of their distinctive plain brown covers, which contain no words. Some books have already been delivered to Kerry-friendly reporters. Others are on their way, our source told us. When asked if we could have a copy, our source declined, saying there is a limited number of “Brown Books” and they have been carefully inventoried to control in whose hands the books ended up.

Ultimately the “Brown Books” will end up in the hands of pro-Kerry news agencies and reporters. According to our source, who demanded to remain anonymous for fear of retribution, The New York Times is already on the hook to run a negative series on the Vets, as is the Boston Globe, which is owned by the Times. (Editor’s Note: The Globe has already been caught attempting to attack the veracity of George Elliott, Kerry’s commanding officer in Vietnam.)

In addition, the DNC has deployed a six member team from their press shop whose sole responsibility will be to spin and counter-spin stories about the members of Vietnam Veterans for Truth with pro-Kerry media entities, like the Times.

When asked if this was just another example of John Kerry slandering Vietnam Vets – like he did in 1971 as a member of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War – our source snapped, “No! This is warfare. The only way we’re going to get out of this is to force everyone to question their motives and credibility.”

“If they want to spread rumors and stories about John Kerry, we’ll spread rumors and stories about them. And some of the things they did in Vietnam were a lot worse than what they say John Kerry did,” our source concluded ominously.

Stay tuned. We will keep you posted as this nasty story develops. Posted on Sunday, August 08 @ 14:36:36 EDT by admin

Me too.

I don't get why anybody is surprised that there are Vietnam Vets coming out tough against Kerry. This has nothing to do with Bush. This is unavoidable and necessary. These men have waited thirty years to confront Kerry the traitor. Shame on anyone who would try to shut them up.

I suspect they might have turned some folks ex wives. Soros and Teresa have a lot of money.

This reminds me during the impeachment, Larry Flynt was offering money for information on Republicans. I think it was Livingston who suspected Carville was in on it, too.

These rats have no shame.

John Kerry : "war hero" or a "war criminal"

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1186991/posts

Answer the question Kerry!

Did you lie about your "heroics" or the "war crimes"?

Can't have it both ways!

RELASE ALL YOUR MILITARY RECORDS

INCLUDING YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS
THAT INCLUDE THE TREATMENT
FOR THE 3 PURPLE HEARTS.

BEFORE NOV 2nd!

Unless you are hiding something?

Are you?

It's now Aug, where are ALL the records that were promised in April?

PS A "summary" is NOT what you promised.

WASHINGTON, April 21 /U.S. Newswire/ --
The Kerry Campaign announced today that online at
http://www.johnkerry.com
are the official Naval records and the after-action combat reports
that are part of the public record at the Naval Historical Center,
Operational Archives Branch in Washington, DC.

What follows is a summary list of the pages on the website
and a summary of the after-action combat reports.

The direct address for the official Naval records is:

Either the Swift Vets bring down Kerry, or the media succeeds in painting Kerry as the victim of a "Republican dirty trick."

It will be the latter.

Yup. It's rancid.

Remember the Left likes to complain about the chill wind that stifles dissent. What the Hell is this? A chill monsson?

Oh by the way, just saw a really nasty, unaccountable 527 ad (from the Media Fund) on my local Fox broadcast station attacking Bush.

It's funny-- Kerry doesn't have to answer for it, and John Mccain isn't blasting them and crusading to get soft money out of politics.

If Bush loses, John "useful idiot" McCain will have a lot to do with it. I will never vote for John McCain if he runs for President. He is a Constitution hating tool of the Left--when he came out against the Swift Boat Heroes my blood boiled.

F McCain and F Kerry.

Sickening!!!

He won't have to do anything except survive. The Rats have already proven that there is literally NOTHING that a 'Rat president could do that would get them to vote to impeach.

We will probably find out for sure in the next few days.

The men sKerry served with didn't need a loose canon to help them get themselves killed. The sound bite from yesterday spelled out why and when they asked him to go.

My fault? As Nick Danger said, nobody asked me. If they had, I would have advised against the ad.

No your grab the ankles reluctance to challenge the deeply corrupt, slanted media ideological complex is your fault.

If they win, they win not because they should, but because they are so powerful. You accept that, I don't.

This sounds fishy to me. Some "brown books" will be printed up and distributed so carefully that we mustn't expect ever to lay eyes on one?

Maybe some "anonymous source" is just pulling chain.

It is our collective judgment that, upon your return from Vietnam, you
grossly and knowingly distorted the conduct of the American soldiers,
marines, sailors and airmen of that war (including a betrayal of many of us,
without regard for the danger your actions caused us). Further, we believe
that you have withheld and/or distorted material facts as to your own
conduct in this war.

We believe you continue this conduct today, albeit by changing from an
anti-war to a "war hero" status. You now seek to clad yourself in the very
medals that you disdainfully threw away in the early years of your political
career. In the process, we believe you continue a deception as to your own
conduct through such tactics as the disclosure of only carefully screened
portions of your military records. Both then and now, we have concluded that
you have deceived the public, and in the process have betrayed honorable
men, to further your personal political goals.

Your conduct is such as to raise substantive concerns as to your honesty and
your ability to serve, as you currently seek, as Commander-in-Chief of the
military services.

It is vital that the American public have as much information as possible
about candidates for President of the United States. In various ways, you
have rightly called upon President Bush to be fully accountable and to
provide full disclosure. In the same spirit, now that you are the
presumptive nominee of your Party, we believe it is incumbent upon you to
make your total military record open to the American people.

Specifically, we the undersigned formally request that you authorize the
Department of the Navy to independently release your military records
(through your execution of Standard Form 180), complete and unaltered,
including your military medical records. Further, we call upon you to
correct the misconceptions your campaign seeks to create as to your conduct
while in Vietnam. Permit the American public the opportunity to assess your
military performance upon the record, and not upon campaign rhetoric.
