Somebody, somewhere, has to have that available in streaming video or audio. Most disgusting thing I've ever read and I'd love to hear it with my own ears.

Having not seen the show yesterday, reading this transcript just made my blood boil.

O'Neill and all of the Swift Boat Vets were doing the same job as Kerry, many interacted with Kerry - so the obnoxious argument that Carville and Davis were pushing, that since John O'Neill never served side-by-side with Kerry, he has not valid position to make such observations, is proposterous.

Of course, O'Neill debated Kerry in '71 and has written a book that melds some 60 vets that served around Kerry, some 200 other signees, and pulled their stories together into a cohesive narrative. But by Carville's logic, Kerry and all his guys are innocent before proven guilty (ignoring their stories' conflictions and inconsistencies) while the Swift Boat Vets are guilty before proven innocent (with not just in depth refutations but simple ones like Christmas in Cambodia with the K. R.'s, etc.)

You can only shout people down for so long before it becomes obvious that someone is trying to draw the attention away from the obvious truth - otherwise there is no need to continually - and obnoxiously - talk over their query.
