The facts are that this issue regarding French has been a classic political hit job from a nuanced RAT attack machine.
French is but one of the over 170 participants in Swifty group who served with Kerry in the unit, but did not have visual eyewitness contributions to the book. He simply stated he believed Kerry lied and was backing up the eyewitness testimony of the others in the book.
French then signed the letter that was signed by all the vets who knew Kerry and served on those boats in one capacity or another. French was in the command hierarchy and has standing.
The initial article about this was a misleading democrat inspired hit piece and everything subsequent to it is based on the original contention that he somehow lied?????????
Just how did he lie?
He signed the letter which plainly states that Kerry's record is not what it appears to be. He is supporting the groups documented evidence. He at no time proffered anything other than his belief that the evidence gathered by the Switfies is true, to the best of his knowledge.
Where in the hell is a lie!!!!?????
This really pisses me off, and I am sending another donation today to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. We cannot allow this type of character assassination to occur to a whistle blower, and he is entitled to our protection and our support.
Anyone who does not see this is a fool.
French's affidavit is posted above. The vast majority of it is directly related to his own personal experience.
He cites Kerry's own book to affirm that Kerry lied.
