People are wondering why 250 Swift Boat Vets are against John Kerry and yet his crew is sticking by him like glue.

I thought about it but I probably have no right to bring this up since I am not a combat veteran. Anyway let me run this by you.

Remember when John Kerry testified before Congress? Saying under oath and without subpoena that he had committed atrocities in Viet nam, That he had shot women and kids with a 50 caliber machine gun and burned villages.. John Kerry if he did the things he swore that he did was not alone when he did them.His crew was there with him , They too would have committed these atrocities. They have to back Kerry or he has them over a barrel.
I am not saying this is why they stick with him in his stories, but it is something to think about isnt it?

There is a simpler explanation. His crew likes him. Most crews like their skipper unless he is a captain Bly. There is no evidence that Kerry was not a good skipper. Also, they got medals and citations when Kerry did. He wrote up the after action reports in ways that made them all look good.

What members of his crew (on his boat) supports him. I understand there was possibility 2. Does anybody know?

John gardner was Kerrys gunner and he claims kerry is a snake whose war hero claims are a joke.

I caught 2 minutes of NOW (Moyer's show, but two others were hosting).
They were discussing Campaign ads and the positive/negative effects of them.

They showed the new one (with Kerry labeling "all" as war criminals).

Their take was that Kerry was repeating things that he had heard, and couldn't be held "responsible" for the content of his testimony!! Of course, we wouldn't expect that he personally saw everyone committing attrocities, but surely he would have seen some (in addition to his own), or he wouldn't so testify?

They never once addressed the SBV portrayed in the ad, and the effect on him from Kerry's testimony.

Sick.
