My distinct impression is the elite media simply do not believe the swift boat veterans against Kerry; they still believe Kerry is a genuine war hero.

The problem is that they DO believe the the swift vets. That's why they are burying the story. Kerry is their man, and they will do ANYTHING in their power to keep this story buried. You can tell how much they believe it by how hysterical the dems get whenever the story is mentioned. If they REALLY thought this story would blow up in Bush's face (as they claim), they would give it a lot of play just so they could debunk it.

The best way to support the Swiftboat Vets is to buy their book, which I tried to do yesterday at Barnes & Noble. They didn't have it, but I'm going to order it there. It's my understanding that in order for a book to get on the NY Times bestseller's list, you can't buy it at a discount store.

"Big media is so far behind the story now they will have no chance to catch up."

Recall the alphabet networks had the story about Willie's willy and held it for two years. It only came out because Drudge broke the story and, of course, then he was slimed.

They don't want it and they already have an excuse for not wanting it. Say they'll stay away from it until they have a real-live credible source. Same media darlings that go on and on all the time about the Bush admin. saying filthy things from "Unnamed Sources"

Who cares what they think!

What matters is that it IS having an impact on kerry and it is NEGATIVE.

I understand they are coming out with another ad soon.

Can't wait! :)

The big three, CBS, ABC & NBC are employees of the Democrat Party.

The ONE big thing that we have going for us in this situation, is that there are media elites that would sell their mother into slavery, turn their wives and daughters into streetwalkers, and turn their back on GOD to score a huge story.

There are “some” of these media Wh*res working on this story as we speak. The media will be merciless to kerry, and all it will take is the first MSM reporter to break ranks.

Anyone know if any TV stations are still playing the Swift Vets ad?
