A little more than three decades ago, a young man named John O'Neill served his nation aboard a swift boat in Vietnam. Today, the mild-mannered and eloquent attorney from Texas is serving his nation again.
O'Neill and the book UNFIT FOR COMMAND have become the biggest nightmare in the Kerry campaign as the campaign tries to fool Americans into actually making a totally unqualified man the commander in chief.
From James Carvile to Lanny Davis to the rest of the hacks in the liberal media, O'Neill is being pummeled as a stooge of President Bush.
Let the word go forth that week after week after week after week, the DemocRATS have told lie after lie after lie after lie. O'Neill is no Bush stooge. In fact, he has not voted for the Republican candidate for president since 1988. Much to the chagrin of his wife, in 2000, JOHN O'NEILL VOTED FOR AL GORE! (source: Hugh Hewitt interview with O'Neill, 8-14-04)
O'Neill and the rest of the approximately 240 men who served with and around him, have come forward and, in many cases, put their jobs on the line to warn Americans of the phony that is the DemocRATic nominee for the presidency.
Godspeed, John O'Neill. You can count on the FReepers to back you 100% in this effort. Thank you yet again for answering your nation's call.
Well.. there goes the DNC talking pint of all the swift vets being serial Bush/Republican cronies.
*chuckle*
I heard O'Neill try to say this last week with Carville and Matthews. He was shouted down to such an absurd extent that few picked up on his statement.
Good thing Hewitt was paying attention.
Yes, indeed....Godspeed John O'Neill!
In case you missed the earlier broadcast.....

Thank you for this tidbit. Now I've got some ammo for the next time some left-wing wacko tries to throw that "Rassman is a registered Republican" crap in my face.
LOL!!!
The real smear campaign here has been against hte Vietnam veterans who dare to speak out against the Mainstream medias beloved Kerry.

I find them more talkative after about the third pint. :-)
I received my book late today and am already 1/2 way through it. It's unbelieveable what a self-promoting liar he was/is. It frightening to think he may be elected to lead our military. My son is entering VMI next week and I shudder to think this moron may be his CinC by the time he graduates.
Wow, what a stunning revelation. He seemed so normal.
*groans*
Me and my typing..
Just my $0.02
Please post some short teaser anecdotes for us. Thanks.
I would suspect that John regrets that vote now. But the point is that he is not on Bush's payroll. He is doing this not for politics but out of patriotism. Many of those who came forward would be voting for the RAT nominee if it were not Kerry.
He's also been quoted as saying he would have voted for Edwards if he'd got the nomination. I think his law firm is big on environmental cases.
O'Neill said the same thing during Matthews "Softball" attack this week (Perot twice, then Gore). He voted for Humphreys (not Nixon) and his parents were long time Democrats.
