I hope our guys are on the way to Camp Kerry to demand that Kerry denounce F911 and Moveon.org.

When Kerry slinks back to the Seante he will have used up all his chits and favors for stunts like this.
But it might set a bad precedent - Michael Moore would be next.
Only 9 HAHAHAHAHAHA! TOAST!
Sensing an anti-Bush backlash????? Huh?
Daniel Inouye, Tom Carper, Jon Corzine, Tom Harkin, Fritz Hollings, Frank Lautenberg, Jack Reed, Bill Nelson, and Jeff Bingaman.
So these idiots want to be on record denouncing free speech for patriotic Vietnam War Vets. I'll save the list for later.
Never underestimate the power of cognitive dissonence. Remember the press and 45% of the population has no trouble pressing past the sins and crimes of Bill Clinton.
There will be no "win" on this from a conservative standpoint. The best that can happen is that the undecided 5-10% finally determinet that Kerry is a bigger weazel than they can stomach. And we won't know that until November.
I keep picturing the hand grenade on a wooden base with the # tag on it. "And the base says complaint dept. take a #" can't find a picture though.
Yep. Silly stunts like this won't impress the American people. But if they want to keep Vietnam alive each day, hey who am I to argue with them.
Carl Cameron just reported on Fox that the Bush people have a letter to give to their unexpected visitors.
Cameron read a bit and the gist is that they share the concern about vets questioning other vets about their honorable service, therefore they have some questions about comments Kerry has made in the past...
What? No little Tommy D.? Oh, that's right. He's up for re-election in mostly conservative SD.
Bush should politely accept the letter and say that he has no control over SBVFT. He should then say that he understands completely Kerry's feelings since he (Bush) has been subject to such ads for over a year from much larger and better funded organizations such as Moveon.org.
Harkin wasn't in Vietnam, by his own admission!
"Kerry/Shrum are suicidal for keeping this story moving forward, IMO..but let's not get in their way"
Damned if they do, damned if they don't.
If this story "goes away" whats left? Kerry can't talk about being a Vietnam Vet....which leaves him back where he started, the Most Liberal Senator in the Senate.
And we all know a far left liberal is unpalatable to average Americans post 9/11.
Kerry's trapped in a web of his own making. All he is demonstrated now is that he will used crippled old men in his quest for the Presidency.
As for Cleland, he's a nutcase in denial. He is no longer in the Senate because of his voting record, yet he pretends he lost his job because of "smears"....gee, anyone else see a pattern?
Kerry's no different than Cleland, except Kerry created the "grenade" thats blown up his campaign with his insistence on running as a Nam Vet, despite what he did to Nam Vets back in 1971.

There's something ironic about a former Senator who was thrown out of office by his constituents two years ago dellivering a letter from nine current Senators.
Freep potential? How are they moving around--will they be at the airports or taking their Learjets?
Guess who the campaign manager was for the 1994 Foley/Nethercutt matchup when, for the first time since the 1800's a sitting Speaker of the House was defeated?
Robert Shrum
Why this guy is still in politics is amazing to me.
