I remember thinking that maybe we could turn the South into a separate country. Where I would want to live, I hasten to add.

We tried that once, with mixed results.

I'm sure they're telling him not to try to stomp out a fire when the flames are taller than you are.

It's lose-lose right now for Kerry. He'll be slammed for hanging tough, Nixonian "limited hang out," or for caving in.

John Kerry's explanation: "He (Hubbard) simply exaggarated his particular position. But nobody knew it at the time. And those things happen."

No, John, exaggerating your position is telling everyone you ran for an eighty-yard touchdown when, in fact, it was a 74 yard touchdown. When you weren't even on the football team, and, in fact, did not even attend that school, it's called "lying."

"This statement ALONE should turn off 3/4 of the non-vet and 100% of the VETS in our nation."

Not a chance of this making a big difference. You forget who the MSM has been servicing.

Even Bill Schneider of CNN just said, "there's no evidence of coordination between the Swiftboat ads and the Bush Cheney campaign.

Schneider did just make the same point I made....how funny it is that JOhn McCain's image is being used in 527 ads. (I wish Mitch McConnell would go on television and LHAO at McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform. He deserves the big, public opportunity to say: "See, I told you so!!")

XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX TUE AUG 24, 2004 11:09:31 ET XXXXX

KERRY PHONES SWIFT BOAT FOES

**Exclsuive**

Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry personally phoned anti-Kerry swift boat vets, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Kerry reached out to Robert "Friar Tuck" Brant Cdr., USN (RET) Sunday night, just hours after former Sen. Bob Dole publicly challenged Kerry to apologize to veterans.

Brant was skipper of the #96 and # 36 boat and spent time with Kerry in Anm Thoi. Kerry and Brant slept in the same quarters, and Brant used to put Kerry back to be at night when Kerry was sleepwalking.

Brant received a call from Kerry at his home in Virginia while he was watching the Olympics on TV.

The call lasted 10 minutes, sources tell DRUDGE.

KERRY: "Why are all these swift boat guys opposed to me?"

BRANT: "You should know what you said when you came back, the impact it had on the young sailors and how it was disrespectful of our guys that were killed over there.

[Brant had two men killed in battle.]

KERRY: "When we dedicated swift boat one in '92, I said to all the swift guys that I wasn't talking about the swifties, I was talking about all the rest of the veterans."

Kerry then asked if he could meet Brant -- man to man -- face to face.

Brant declined the invite, explaining that Kerry was obviously not prepared to correct the record on exactly what happened during Vietnam and what happened when Kerry came back.

Developing...

His only chance is to announce an affair. Sexual deviance is a good trait for liberals.

If he is, it's probably a fine old French Cognac.

LOL they are probably monitoring this thread waiting for everyone to have to actually do something other than monitor his dribble.

The military has since Vietnam, reversed course..the CMH is harder to win now..indeed many say that the only way to win it now is posthumously...if you survive..it's bumped down to to the Navy Cross, or DSC..if you rewsad some of the citations for the Navy Crosses recently awarded to Marines..many posted on FR..it's hard not to imagien these being worthy of the CMH..
