For the Freepers out there who are unable to purchase a copy of the book, you can get Chapter 2 on that site. Just enter your email addy and they will send it to you.

As far as the ad is concerned--IT IS ABOUT TIME someone called sKerry on his behavior!

This is not political, it's personal.

That's why this whole thing is so baffling to the professional political people and to kerry as well.

None of them comprehend the concept of people doing anything out of a sense of personal honor and integrity.

They never would; why would anyone else?

"Nothing but an ad for the book, I think maybe this thread should be pulled."

Were you able to see the video?

I can only get the video portion, not the audio - so thank you for the audio report.

The video shows Kerry at the Fulbright hearings interspersed with clips of the POWs now. Every time it cuts back to Kerry, his face seems to loom larger.

The visuals are exceedingly effective alone - I can't wait to hear it.

Copy the URL and paste into address bar...I also had to close down my firewall to get it to play (and then relaunch it after the ad)...but it was definitely worth it.

Time for another donation, Freepers! If I understand McCain-Feingold, we only have 2 more weeks to run these ads - let's help the Swifties keep them on the air until the last minute!

For the life of me, I can't imagine how the Democratic Party ever let Kerry get within a million miles of a spot on a primary ballot.

The Boston Globe failed to investigate Kerry's war record for thirty years.

I would say that this is an example of something coming back to bite you.

I guess there is justice in this world.

I have been waiting for 30 years for Kerry to what he deserves. Thank you God.

It is snips of Senator Kerry's testimony before the Senate, calling the American soldiers baby killers, reminiscent of Genghis Khan, day-to-day war crimes, with pauses for POWs saying he betrayed them and his country, and testified in the senate what they were tortured to say, yet still refused to say.

I got tears in my eyes.

I try not cuss a lot on FR, but Kerry, and anyone who supports him is a piece of sh!t.

If you have heard Hannity playing the clip of Kerry testifying before the Senate in the 1970's where he testifies that he saw war crimes commited ... chopping off heads, limbs, raping, pillaging reminisent of Ghengis Khan ... that clip plays with voice overs by former POWs saying that what Kerry said was exactly what they as POWs were tortured to say ... They are calling him a traitor, although they never come out and say he's a traitor

I'll give John McCain about an hour to come up with the DNC rebuttal......

Exactly. The MSM will run to him pleading for a response. McCain is Kerry's ally. I wonder if he will call his fellow POWs dishonorable and dishonest.

Nothing but an ad for the book, I think maybe this thread should be pulled.

You forgot to question the timing.

Thank you for your service. I took a look at your profile, and it was very interesting.

"Even more powerful than the first ad."

And completely indisputable.

Want to see how much this is bothering the Dems? DU just posted John O'Neil's e-mail address at his firm's office so they can write to him.
