The Kerry campaign calls on a publisher to 'withdraw book' written by group of veterans, claiming veterans are lying about Kerry's service in Vietnam and operating as a front organization for Bush. Kerry campaign has told Salon.com that the publisher of UNFIT FOR COMMAND is 'retailing a hoax'...

Kerry now has no choice. His rebuttal yesterday will really hurt him.

did Kerry call for any of Michael Moore's books to be banned? Or does his censorship only call for books that attack him? I missed the press release.

I hope that he takes a SH**LOAD of libtard lemmings with him. We'll be better off for it.

Right on, Gunny! The Democratic Party has been completely corrupted and represents the party of liars, frauds, cheats and perverts. Vote R - down the line!

Thanks for putting this rumor to rest. At least we know it's not the publisher.

Interesting. Can't the Kerry campaing claim that they're doing no more or no less than the Bush camp did in response to J.H. Hatfield and "Fortunate Son"?

This is a serious question, not a goof or a slam. What did the Bush camp do back in 2000 to stop Hatfield's book? I don't remember myself.

Your political judgment is not tied to the real world if you imagine this could happen.

Okay fine. Just wait. We'll see whose political judgement is 'tied to the real world'.

Hillary is damned shrewd. She can't win in 2004. She wants 2008. She can't run in '08 if Kerry were to win this year- he'll be up for re-election. She'd have to wait until the next time the Presidency is up for grabs- in 2012. Democrats, the Clintons in particular, are not above torpedoing one another to serve their own ends.

Rather than simply gainsaying what I have said with remarks about how my judgement is not in the real world, why don't you offer a rebuttal?

Kerry is a tyrant. More dangerous than Clinton.

Even the Toon didn't call for the banning of books.

One of the talking points of the swifties and supporters:

Kerry has every incentive to lie. He has a decent probability of being elected president of the United States. The 254 swift vets have no incentive to lie, in fact, their lives are being dissected and trashed by the MSM and the left.

Rush is ripping Matthews, preparing to interview Michelle Malkin, trumpeting the SBV book, AND announcing an interview with John O'Neill on Monday. Life is good.

I bet O'Reilly is having some gas over the fact that the Swiftees haven't "gone away," as he wished and predicted. A good day for truth, indeed.

O'Reilly is impressed with Kerry because he's from Hahvahd. Kerry's Senate record is MIA...and has only one thing going for him - he's the anybody but Bush candidate.

O'Reilly should have paid close attention to O'Neill - but then he might have learned something.
