What a bunch of maroons!

Kerry's Uncle, Adolph

[dirtboy]

Tucker Carlson just said that CNN has been notified that the Kerry camp will seek to have the goverment pull the Swift Boat veterans for Truth ads.

Yet another Kerry action that will blow up in their faces. This puts all the Dem 527s into play as well - and the connections between the Kerry campaign and those groups are quite clear there.

I don't think I've ever seen a more thorough job of political self-immolation in my life. And they're just getting started.

Best possible news for us and total insanity for the dims. The more they try to censor the book the more attention they draw to it. Folks that would ordinarily have no knowledge of it will demand to read it to see what all the fuss is about. My daddy told me one time, "The more you stir up $hit the bigger stink you make, If you just leave it alone it will dry up and go away" Dims sure must like stirring

First lawyers to hit TV stations.
Then private investigators to dig up dirt on the Swifty's.
Now an FCC complaint.

Why won't the Kerry campaign just release all his military records?

[applemac_g4]

I just double posted about this. It looks like the complaint is going to the FEC, not the FCC.

It's requesting that the ads be banned and that there was "illegal cooperation between the Swift Boat Vets, the RNC, and the Bush Cheney campaign."

It looks like the demonrats have pulled a page out of the Clinton playbook - "the best defense is a good offense."

This also gives their allies in the media the benefit of being able to ignore the original charges in the Swifties ads, and Kerry's attempts to weasel out of those charges...but create a whole new Watergate for the new millenium story: "Did the Bush/Cheney Campaign violate election rules?"

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

The fact that he would silence his critics alone makes him unfit for command, regardless of what they have to say.

[scuret]

Hah! Now this is rich! First, freedom of speech is constricted by McCain-Feingold, and John Kerry is attempting to block the big loophole in the McCain Feingold bill. Only problem here for Kerry is that if SwiftVets go, so does Moveon, and the rest of the 18 billion 527's that the democrats have abused to try and get Kerry elected. Kerry continues to amaze us by flip flopping on everything- even his 527 strategy!!!

[BurbankErnie]

Banning Books, Banning Ads.... there will be rioting in the streets if this POS keeps this up.

[mass55th]

I don't think they want to open up this can of worms. It'll cost them in the end because more Dems are affiliated with 527's. Hannity is just saying how Harold Ickes and Bill Richardson are both Democratic Party Officials, but are associated with 527's. Richardson is on the planning board of a 527.

"The SwiftVets ad must be pulled! We need the air time for our commercials about how intolerant Bush is, and how he's trampling our civil rights!"

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Bush has weathered a boatload of CRAP for MONTHS! The mainline media just helps with the promotions of any and all lies about Bush. Bush takes it like a true Constitution protecting AMERICAN and Komrade Kerry demands the strong arm of government silence the dissenters.

[AmericaUnited]

AWESOME! THE KERRY IDIOTS GIVING THE SWIFTIES MORE MEGA LEGS!

These people are so stupid.

[mass55th]

The other thing is that this isn't going to play well with the public. All the ads against President Bush and he's never once whined over it. One ad by vets confronting Kerry and he runs to the FEC. Whaaa!!!

[Happy2BMe]

"Tucker Carlson just said that CNN has been notified that the Kerry camp will seek to have the goverment pull the Swift Boat veterans for Truth ads."

The Kerry Camp vs TRUTH. That's news?

[RetiredArmy]

Isn't that called censorship and isn't that illegal?? The imperial federal government pulling a political add? Sounds like we are a third-world nation already!!!

[NetValue]

It's the treachery, stupid.

[Dane]

What a wimp.

[leadpencil1]

Is the basis of their complaint the fact that the vets are lying? What desperatation!

[RJL]

Kerry campaign will file or has filed a legal complaint with the FEC about the Swift Boat ads claiming that the Ads are lies, and that there is illegal coordination between the RNC, the Bush/Cheney campaign, and this group.

If President Bush had asked the Swift Boat guys to quit running the ads, you can bet that Kerry would be saying that was proof President Bush was coordinating with them.

President Bush and the RNC were far too smart to fall into Kerry's little trap.
