AL JOLSON IN OCTOBER
TTP Intelligence Bulletin

Thursday, August 19, 2004
All indications are that the Swiftees offensive against Hanoi John is severely damaging the Kerry/Edwards candidacy. The television ads by the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth and the #1 bestseller on Amazon, Unfit For Command, have credibly assaulted the basis for Kerrys campaign: that his self-proclaimed status as a war hero during 4 months in Vietnam qualify him to be President of the United States.
However
in the famous words of Al Jolson: You aint heard nothin yet. The Swiftees have prepared an October Surprise for Hanoi John that is going to blow his candidacy out of the water. I cant tell you what it is, but I can tell you the television and radio ads have already been taped, and they are going to have an impact like an elephant sitting on a donkey.
The Swiftees have three things in abundance: money, brains, and balls. They know exactly how to go for the jugular, they have the dough to do it, and they are saving their best shot for last. The Democrats will not know what hit them and will not know how to retaliate. Get set folks. The Kerry Train Wreck is not going to be a pretty sight.
Again I may be wrong. I thought they could do anything as long as they were completely independent of the campaign.
They are going to try that again?
Yes..but......this is the Chinese water torture for the Kerry campaign..one hit after another..and they're playing defense..which is NO way to win an election..
The Hanoi War Memorial(from what I've heard) he's right up there with che,Mao,stalin,not so sure but appopriate.
IIRC Cannot mention name under 30 days before General Election.
October surprise is code for late (9-15 and beyond).
Be afraid...be very afraid!!!
OOH, scary. < /sarcasm >
Unless he got loaded and crashed the presidential limo, he's been innoculated to that sort of trash. They did that in 2000 when people didn't know him as well. The past 4 years will determine the fate of President Bush's reelection not events of 30 years ago.
Again?
I need to stop watching South Park!
The law probably does not cover press releases or a news conference.
Go on tv or radio with the story.
There are always ways around lawyers.
Does this site exist and can someone supply a video or picture?
I still think the one month moratorum on 527 ads applies...
...unless you are advertising something like, say, a book?
"Read the real story of John Kerry's anti-war activities, including why he should be tried under the Sedition Act. Read 'John Kerry is a Thin French Idiot' today!"
I think College Savings Plans can run ads whenever they want...(wink)
I agree. and take it up later closer to the election.Right now the focus should be on shadowing all these lawyers who are being paid to harass Veterans for speaking their mind.There is a whole story here of intimidation and money and it stinks from the very bowels of Edwards/Kerry money from their 527s.
30 days before an election, isn't it? That leaves Oct. 1st.
527s that are funded by labor unions or corporations ARE limited, but those 527s that are funded by individuals (as the SwiftVets' are) may run advertising right up to the election.
"The Kerry Train Wreck is not going to be a pretty sight."
Oh yes it will.
If you would like to help the Swift Boat Vets ( as I have, and I urge all to do-- even a few dollars will help ) kindly click on this logo:

I hope there is no shrapnel - someone could be injured.
