Who did they think they would be getting donations from, Kerry backers?

Heh heh heh, is this the first article in the Times about the SBVs? LOL, I thought they were forbidden to mention it.

The NY Times has finally gone on the record. They think it is wrong for citizens in good standing to support those who wish to reveal to the American public what John Kerry did. Even a rag bird-cage liner like the Times should be able to understand the concept of freedom of speach. That's their bread and butter.

No, but they think it disloyal to their totalitarian, central command rule for individuals to be able to use their own funds to disagree with the mighty NYT.

Chad Clanton, a campaign spokesman, called Swift Boat Veterans a "discredited group.''

"No matter how much money they spend," Mr. Clanton said, "two facts remain: their charges have been completely discredited"...

I have not yet heard how the Swifties have been discredited. Please elaborate...

Not only that, they have dared to commit the heresy of not bowing down and worshipping John Kerry!
