Great post Missman. The swiftvets do represent everything that is good and righteous about our country. What I like is that they are not easily intimidated. One after another that rat leadership have come after them using every dirty trick they can pull from tryng to ban the book to banning the ads and for the most part they laugh at any purported intimidation that doesn't' threaten their life. These guys are the real thing and we should support them. I hope their book is # 1 tomorrow.

The media as a group are rabid lefties - I didn't say that they weren't. But even the 'moderates' try to keep the story going -- and if they feel that Ketchup Boy is destined to lose big, they will work extra hard to keep the contest as even as they can, for as long as they can.

O'niell should show up on Timmy Russert door step on tape day, or worse yet show up in the crowd outside the TODAY show.

True enough, but I don't think they try to keep it even by intent.

They just investigate and write about the guy in front more than the guy in back because it makes for better copy sales. So yes, they end up by keeping it more even.

In Kerry's case, he is their man. The one they really want to win. They will attack Bush if he is behind or in front.

Then they will claim fairness.

This issue has turned into something far more important than this presidential election

I have the exact same feeling. If Kerry wins, but America can confront the reality that the media's "hero" protestors were not only not heroic, they hurt real heros, then it will all be worth it. The odds are daunting, I've never seen the media goose step to a singleminded purpose like they are now, but that just makes it more worth it!

This issue is now about TRUTH. The liberal media have ALWAYS suppressed it in the past.

They've been doing it since 1971, and are directly responsible for our loss of South Vietnam and the genocide of 2-3 million South Vietnames.

The media ARE our #1 practical enemy, the single element of our society that most enables the evil of liberalism to daily strengthen its stranglehold on our nation

That's not an overstatement, more and more I'm seeing "campaign finance reform" as being a huge part of that.. The Swift Vet campaign is the first thing EVER to seriously challenge it, and we all need to support it.

Its true, I've already given more to them than I ever did to any politician, and I'm going to give again. These guys aren't the first to challenge, but a part of me fears they may be the last. I pray to God they get through to Americans.

They weren't interested in keeping the races close in '92 or '96. They did everything in their power to ensure Clinton victories in both of his elections.
