If possible, the next time another Swiftvet is about to be shouted down by Hurley on some talk show, the vet should ask him to explain to the audience who John Musgrave and Tom Pardue are....

Musgrave is the man he called and tried to pressure into changing his opinion that Kerry was at the meeting in which the assassination of government officials was discussed...

Pardue looked into charges made by Hurley that he had seen war crimes committed while a member of the 69th Engineer Battalion in Vietnam, as one of Kerry's VVAW shills. Pardue contacted a large number of former members of the Battalion and discovered not one instance of such crimes. He even wrote to Brinkley with his evidence, and Brinkley admitted the story was wrong and promised to change it in the next edition of his book. Pardue tried to contact Hurley, but Hurley never called him back....

Time to put some hurt on Hurley......

I did send this info about Hurley directly to SWVT - you should, too!

Here is the thread about Musgrave saying Hurley pressured him to change his story about Kerry being present at that meeting.
