TRANSCRIPT of Tad Devine, Kerry Senior Campaign Advisor on "BIG STORY" with Judge Napiltano...

...on Dec 24th, 1968, let me tell you what happened. Two times on that day, december 24th, christmas eve, john kerry's boat was ambushed a third time on that night on christmas eve he had a friendly fire episode as welL. So john kerry got shot at three times on christmas eve. Now, his boat started off about 40 miles from the cambodian border and they headed towards cambodia that day. Are there some issues about whether or not it got to the border, did the shots come from the border, is there lack of clarity? I would admit there are. I think what was cedar into his mind and remains there to this day is the fact that three times on one day he was shot at. By the way, that's three times more than the president and the vice president who have been sending our troops to iraq were ever shot at in their life. Judge: Yesterday senator kerry really raised the level of this and caused it to come on the morning's front pages of all the newspapers and the mainstream media when he said the president of the united states is behind this. His texas buddies have financed it. They're doing his dirty work for him. What evidence is there for those allegations?

>> Judge, today in the "new york times" they talked about the web of connections, quote, end quote, between these people and the bush campaign. By the way, this is part of a larger pattern. We saw exactly the same thing in the year 2000. This is precisely what the bush campaign does against decorated vietnam veterans. They did it against john mccain. By the way, the attacks they then launch which we heard the governor just laurving a few minutes ago that somehow he is getting unhinged almost verbatim this is what they said about john mccain four years ago. So this is out of the bush family playbook. This is what they do. They take a decorated vietnam veteran, they put up a front group, they attack him for their service and try to diswrit credit him. You know what, the truth is too powerful. They're not going to win this argument. Judge: Haven't the democrats effectively done the same thing? Who finances moveon .Org. Isn't it george soros. Who financed fahrenheit 9/11, a vicious attack on the president ? Isn't turn about fair play, ted, and isn't that what politics is about today?

>> It is, and when john mccain challenged john kerry earlier this week to distance himself and to discredit the ad attacking george bush's lack of service in vietnam and lack of service in the national guard, john kerry within hours stood up, issued a public statement, and agreed with john mccain, distanced himself, and john kerry said I want a campaign about the issues, not a campaign of insults. The president of the united states has made his silence deafening. He refuses to this day to take up senator mccain's charge and to distance himself and to discredit the dishonest and dishonorable ad that the swift boat veterans have launched. The president -- judge: I know you guys run this campaign like to plan and blot, but some republicans have said that that campaign ad came out was so that john kerry could distance himself from it.

>> Well, i don't know. The conspiracy theories are overwhelming everything, judge. That's a little too much. Judge: Tad devine, senior adviser to the kerry-edwards campaign. Thank you very much.

This could get fun to watch.

So far, Kerry has over 9 different versions just of his Christmas in Cambodia story. Each version makes a lie out of some of the other versions. He can't get a straight story out of it that makes sense. His last version (that I heard) was that he was with the CIA and had to be shhhhhh about everything [can you spell cop-out?].

Complaining to the Feds and trying to get the publisher to pull the book are just making this story more and more frontpage material. Kerry will have to proved that the SwiftVets' challenges are lies. Put up or shut up.

hehehe.

Time to freep the FEC and FCC headquarters. Need a Registered reworking of the Kerry logo.

I feel a real surge of wind behind our backs, mates.

Ploy to try & change the focus of the story from the Kerry lies to Bush's cheating. MSM will carry the water on this I'm sure.

The FEC isn't in the position to take any action right now. If the FEC was to bar the SBV ads, they'd have bar all the other 527`s from placing their ads.

Drudge now reports this:

Democratic White House hopeful John Kerry's campaign formally alleged Friday that a group attacking his Vietnam war record had illegal ties to US President George W. Bush's reelection bid...

It's the headline. See http://www.drudgereport.com.

Sorry for the duplicate, folks.

Its time now. I know I know it looks bad. But Kerry's mug needs to be morphed, photoshop-wise, with a Hitlerian moustache.

Already a complaint on 8/10 by three "watchdog" groups:

ttp://www.usatoday.com/news/politicselections/nation/president/2004-08-10-anti-kerry-ad-complaint_x.htm

Could be a problem, doubt it, but the ads are done. The original complaint had to do with which money was used for what.

There is no sensible person in this country that cannot understand what is being done here. Anyone that chooses to vote Kerry after all this has chosen totalitarianism willingly. No more excuses. The Left is being exposed.

I will admit the enorimity of it is frightening, but I'm not frightened. I've wanted this fight since I realized the extent to which I had been lied to by these people to gain my vote. They have betrayed millions of Americans with their lies.

Let justice be served.

Big FEC lawsuit by Kerry, to a) demand the ads be pulled; b) SwiftBoatees have to return all of their "ILLEGAL" contributions; c) request maximum FEC fine against the Veterans.
