"I committed atrocities before I didn't commit them."
Well, this story is certainly taking off!
A coercion story you'll never read in the MSM BUMP!
Graymatter reporting for dupy. This has been posted before. Too bad it's not coming from the MSM. That would be news.
He should start a group: Former Vietnam Veterans Against The War Who Are Now Against Kerry.
The MSM (Old Media) will sit on this new story, that they will HATE to have to give it press or airtime, until it so overwhelminglyh consumes the NEW MEDIA (talk shows, blogs, internet sites, bumper stickers, ads, water cooler talk in America, night show monologues) until they are FORCED, kicking and screaming, to grudgingly report on it. They will first call it another smear, most of the nation will know once again that the OLD SCHOOL MSM IGNORES and then LIES, Kerry will lose another 2-3 points, and liberals will continue to vandalize cars of conservatives around America as they see their chance to "Re DEFEAT Bush" (sic) slip every so slowly away.
Do you think Dan and 60 Minutes will interview him? no
As we have seen, the 'Rats have never let the truth get in the way of propaganda.
be ashamed Pitkin, very ashamed.
Many Vietnam veterans felt forced to join the VVAW in psychological self defense. Though the minority, they successfully used propaganda tactics to make themselves SEEM to be the majority.
I'm happy for Mr. Pitkin that he's got his pride back and is now trying to do the right thing. His isn't the only true story of VVAW coercion out there...and equally compelling. The mass media will ignore them.
Hmm...sell out my country, or get stranded in Detroit...sell out my country...or get stranded in Detroit...I just don't know....

This story really, really took my breath away. If this gets play, it'll not only be the final nail in the Kerry coffin, it'll be the six feet of dirt, the headstone and the turf over the grave.

This is the single most important story of this election season. John Kerry MUST be defeated. No man who would ever do what he did, no matter how long ago it was, should ever be placed in a position of trust, much less the position of President of the United States.

And if John Kerry has his way.. he will turn the Global War on Terror (starting with Iraq), into another vietnam.
bump to must read later
Has someone sent this to Drudge yet? This is huge. If someone came out and said these sorts of things about President Bush it would be all over the TV for the next 3 weeks.
