UPDATE: THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS TODAY CONFIRMED THE EXCLUSIVE BROKEN BY CRUSHKERRY.COM 3 WEEKS AGO. TODAY THEY CONFIRMED THE EXISTENCE OF THE "BROWN BOOK" DOSSIERS COMPILED BY DEMOCRATS CONTAINING DAMAGING PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE SWIFT BOAT VETS IN ORDER TO SMEAR THEM. TODAY'S ARTICLE ALSO DEALS WITH THEIR RELEASING THE PSYCHIATRIC AND CRIMINAL RECORDS OF ONE SWIFT BOAT VET, AS WELL AS HIS SUICIDE ATTEMPT. THIS DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR WAS PREDICTED BY US WEEK AGO IN THE ARTICLE BELOW WHICH WE ARE RE-POSTING FOR REFERENCE.
(PRIOR)UPDATE: The Prowler says the Kerry campaign says the media will not push the Swifties story because they want Kerry to win.
(PRIOR) UPDATE: It’s starting. We guess David Brock over at Media Matters for America received a “Brown Book.” He attempts a character hit on Jerome Corsi, one of the authors of Unfit for Command.
The Democrat National Committee has prepared a full-scale assault against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth to draw their character and veracity into question, according to one anonymous source inside the DNC. The campaign of character assassination is scheduled to coincide with the release of the book Unfit for Command which reveals inconvenient facts for the Kerry campaign.
“We have prepared what we call ‘Brown Books’ that contain damaging military records, personal credit histories, medical histories, psychiatric histories, divorce records, you name it,” our source told us. "We've got the goods on the Veterans who oppose Kerry."
The “Brown Books” are so called because of their distinctive plain brown covers, which contain no words. Some books have already been delivered to Kerry-friendly reporters. Others are on their way, our source told us. When asked if we could have a copy, our source declined, saying there is a limited number of “Brown Books” and they have been carefully inventoried to control in whose hands the books ended up.
Ultimately the “Brown Books” will end up in the hands of pro-Kerry news agencies and reporters. According to our source, who demanded to remain anonymous for fear of retribution, The New York Times is already on the hook to run a negative series on the Vets, as is the Boston Globe, which is owned by the Times. (Editor’s Note: The Globe has already been caught attempting to attack the veracity of George Elliott, Kerry’s commanding officer in Vietnam.)
In addition, the DNC has deployed a six member team from their press shop whose sole responsibility will be to spin and counter-spin stories about the members of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth with pro-Kerry media entities, like the Times.
When asked if this was just another example of John Kerry slandering Vietnam Vets – like he did in 1971 as a member of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War – our source snapped, “No! This is warfare. The only way we’re going to get out of this is to force everyone to question their motives and credibility.”
“If they want to spread rumors and stories about John Kerry, we’ll spread rumors and stories about them. And some of the things they did in Vietnam were a lot worse than what they say John Kerry did,” our source concluded ominously.
Stay tuned. We will keep you posted as this nasty story develops.
Yes, I agree, the Vets will fight back. This is what I've been posting all morning. The democrats are not responding to the SBVT contentions, they are simply going after them personally. This will enrage the public.
Question to John Kerry: "Is it true that the DMC has a Brown Book on the SBVT and that it has been dispersed to various reporters."
FAt chance that he'll ever answer it.

There's still 40% of the voters who will vote for Kerry, no matter what turns up. Kerry could give up bathing and campaign in the nude from now 'til election day and his base will still turn out for him. That's the way it is. Fortunately, those few who are undecided will now have some serious doubts, and some of his less rabid supporters may stay home. So things should work out well.
The tactics of "Fear and Smear". Kerry is a disgusting jerk.
We all need to take a good hard look at what a Kerry presidency would mean to America. Tyranny - unless you're to the left of Marx or Stalin.
1. Soap Box
2. Ballot Box
3. Ammo Box
Why aren't we starting to see the results of Kerry's inability to rebuke the SBVT in the polls yet?

Think about this:
The 900 FBI Files were obtained back during The Reign Of Terror. The SBVT didn't come into being until this year three years after it ended.
The files were for the exclusive use of She Who Must Not Be Named. The SBVT are no threat to Her, so how could they be included? Time and motive are against it.
The FBI Files were presumably, of all 535 sitting members of Congress at the time; the other 365 are of those who present a political or ideological threat to Her ascenion to power. I would not be surprised, if Hannity, Rush, Coulter and Savage are among them.
Nice work. You appear to have very reliable sources.
Kerry has prepared his whole life to be president, planing and strategizing using the Media as his ally, as has been done by liberals for the past 40 years.
The meida model doesn't work anymore and Kerry is at a loss to understand why. His campaign is the epitomy of using an old gameplan and refusing to adapt to new technology. He's just going to get crazier and crazier as his lifelong dream to be President goes down in flames.
Even Nixon did not have that kind of power. Katherine Graham hated him and the media was out to get him since he was right on Alger Hiss.
Of course the DNC is behind the smear campaign and of course Kerry will deny it...what else is new...
doesn't matter...the Swiftees and Viet Nam veterans will continue to fight and with the grace of God we will defeat Kerry in November!
Semper Fi,

"It looks like we need a Vietnam veterans' march on Washington... This is tyranny."
Sept. 12! Million Vets Against Kerry....Washington,DC
Be there!!! All supporters of the vets are invited and welcome!
major bump for later
I was thinking that some of the Republican donors from Texas might have been on that list, the same donors who contributed to the Swiftboat Veterans.
Thank you sir.
First the Village Voice....now the Daily News...
N.Y.'s two most LEFT liberal papers! What is going on here???
