John F. Kerry's campaign for president is imploding. And he knows it.
The anti-war candidate went public as a pro-war candidate this week, and the members of his beloved "Band of Brothers" are exposing a whole book's worth of ugly lies. And they've got details, evidence, footnotes, signed affidavits and witnesses who back up their claims.
Kerry himself bestowed immense credibility on his "Band of Brothers" when he used a picture of some of them in his campaign ad titled "Lifetime."
Essentially, Kerry made Vietnam, and these men, the centerpiece of his campaign. Of course, that was when he thought they'd support his candidacy. No matter that he'd never bothered to ask their permission to use them to promote his political career.

Excellent. And from a bay area publication, that really says something.
I think they're in it for future royalties from a future movie deal by George Butler? I could be wrong but I don't think I am.

That's because he's such a stooopid arrogant bastard.
Boy, he should have stayed out of Vietnam, like Bush or Clinton. If you're an aspiring politician -- dodge the draft! Your service will come back to haunt you.
Strange moment of honesty for the Examiner to allow this kind of editorial. Editor must have been on vacation or didn't read his talking points memo that day.
Who is in it for the movie deal? Kerry supporters or the Swifties?
what kind of $#$@ is that? Bush served honorably in the guard. Clinton burned his draft card and protested against the US from foreign soil. There is no comparison. And honorable DemoncRATs like JFK (the real one) did serve. Just because Hanoi John French Kerry is a traitor does not deserve such comparisons.
Kerry should take the advice my mother gave me....."always tell the truth, and then you won't have any trouble remembering what you said." (maybe it will be "SEARED" in your memory.)
Freeper Poll: At what point will Kerry's vile lies make it impossible for the Drooling Lapdog Press to keep covering for him?
In the SF examiner as well.
"Freeper Poll: At what point will Kerry's vile lies make it impossible for the Drooling Lapdog Press to keep covering for him?"
I'd say some time around Sept 20th.
Well, hey...Kerry made his 4 months of Vietnam service the focal point of his candidacy. He's got nobody to blame but his own dumb a$$.
What Kerry should have really done is to be a good Senator in the 19 years he has been in the Senate. Without any significant legislation being passed and a career built on far left votes, Dufus is left to run on only his Viet Nam record. Now, it looks like he was beamed in from Mars because his stories about Cambodia and the hat keep getting goofier. As more people talk about this, either the newspapers pick up the story or even more people will stop reading the newspaper.

The noose is tightening.....
"Now, however, the Kerry campaign is on a search-and-destroy mission to attack the credibility of these same men -- calling them liars, all 60 of them, and saying they didn't serve in the military with him. Really? Then why'd Kerry use their pictures in his ad campaign?
These are the same men who Kerry hailed as his "Band of Brothers," who he implied knew him well and could vouch for him as a wonderful soldier and man."
I think the liberal press 'conveniently' forgot about the photo that was 'seared' into their memories from the convention.
