CSPAN will be running this again tonight at 01:57am (technically I guess that's tomorrow morning).

I caught Steve Pitkin's apology for FALSELY testifying at the Winter Soldier sham. He asked the crowd for forgiveness. I was in tears! forchrissakes!

I'm in no position to accept his apology (I didn't serve) but DAMN! That took guts!


Stay Strong,

He went back into the military and served a full career of combined active and reserve service. He earned his honor back. I'd say today was just the final installment.

Thank you. I stand corrected. Either way, today he's regained something he'd lost and I'm happy for him.

essenitially McPeak is saying Swiftvets discredited because he said so.

What is this "in the same boat" crap? I'm beginning to think this McPeak is shilling for Kerry.

And Kerry only did two tours in Vietnam if you call sitting on a ship off the coast one of them.

I drank the Koolaide myself back in the 70's, though I was not in any way an "activist". I was too busy trying to impress cute boys.

I didn't have any of the tools I would have needed (the real, unadulterated truth) myself to counter the garbage being taught in school & I don't think his father did either. I'm in undo mode now, but it's gonna take time & effort to turn it around. He will not remain ignorant for over 30 years as I did.

By hoffman's standard, licoln could never be president.

McPeak's standard excludes Clinton.

Notice how McPeak left after Republicans took over.

They are not confronting the Swift vets.

McPeak called them liars, said what they say has been "discredited". Of course he doesn't say how, and he says that he "doesn't want to get down into the mud", which translated means that he doesn't want to answer the charges. He also "misspoke" in saying that none of them served on Kerry's boat, whereas we know that at least one of them did. We also know that the others were in a better position than some of those on Kerry's boat to see what was happening.

Vietnam Veterans ticker tape parade when GWB retains the title of Commander in Chief is an excellent idea!

Isn't it funny how ticked off McPeak is about Bush 'not serving' when he worked for a draft dodger...

McPeak still not addressing the facts, saying that he doesn't want to get into the minutia--then attacks GWB in the TANG!

I guess McPeak has been promised a top level job under Kerry. A Job for a BIG lie.
