Next Target? Juan Williams on SwiftVets -- "They have proven to be totally wrong."
heard on FOX News Sunday | 9-12-04 | dfu

Posted on 09/12/2004 10:35:02 PM PDT by doug from upland

Juan Williams of FOX News Sunday and NPR appears to be desperately looking for ways to help John Kerry. He is another one who is in total meltdown as he watches the Kerry campaign crashing.

Williams seems to have a big problem with the SwiftVets, the one group who has earned the right to talk about and challenge John Kerry about Vietnam and his traitorous actions afterwards.

Williams was over the top this morning. He wants so badly to discredit the SwiftVets because he knows what they have been doing to his candidate and party.

While debating with the panel, Williams actually had the gall to say, "They have proven to be totally wrong." What? What? Is he nuts?

The SwiftVets are the most credible of all. They lived the story. They saw the phony. They felt the pain of the knife Kerry put into all their backs.

Now that Dan Rather has been shellshocked, may it is time to set Juan Williams straight. Any ideas?

I can't figure out if Juan Williams is plain stupid or if he is delusional. How can Brit Hume stand sitting next to him without stuffing something in his mouth?

Yeah, I saw that. Said Bush needed to talk to press and settle ANG thing. He's a Rather like Dem patsy. It was kind of sickening to see him say that about the Swift Boats. I mean besides the Post, did anyone look into it?..and then to suggest Bush needed to talk to the press about this when kerry hasn't met with press in close to 6 weeks...sheeze, he's a blinded Dem

I saw this! I was surprised how he was so vehement about them. He was coming across as angry. I did like what he said about his mom though.

Libs like Williams are relying on the fact certain documents back up Kerry's account regarding the circumstances surrounding his medals. They really make a big deal that some of the medal papers for the Swift Boat guys contain the same facts. The problem is, the accounts in these documents were all likely taken from Kerry's after-action report, and the other Swifties would never have necessarily even seen them.

I wanted to ask Williams, if the SBVT guys were proved wrong, why did Kerry have to retract his statement about Cambodia in 1968? Why did his campaign have to concede one of his purple hearts may have been self-inflicted?

I have yet to see O'Neil lose an arguement about the ads, Juan should put his money where his mouth is and interview O'Neil.

John Kerry is the one with six different versions of all these stories. I have no doubt who is telling the truth, and it ain't Mr. Kerry.

Williams is a third-rate Demo mouthpiece.

Not the worst of the lot, but predictably bad. It doesn't matter a damned bit what he says or thinks.

Alan Colmes claimed the other night on his radio show that the Swifties had been totally diecredited and were a non issue now.

That's the media's strategy. They can't actually debunk it, because they have nothing to debunk it with. So they just say it's been proven a lie, a fraud, whatever. Their statement that it's been proven wrong is all we peons need to know.

Hume tried to interrupt him but Juan kept going. The thing is, Juan isn't the only one, this is the Dems talking point now. I have seen several of them say the same thing in the last few days.

People say the Kerry camp didn't have strategy but I think they did. They tried to focus on the medals, confuse the issues with a couple of technicalities and contradictions and then spike the more serious charges. Of course the more serious charges, as a factual matter, aren't subject to any debate.

Is it true the Swift Boat Vets have something big coming?

Juan Williams is an outstanding journalist, just misunderstood. How do you think he got to be on Fox, affirmative action or performance?

Juan is delightful, my favorite Lib. Great smile. Let him decompress for a week. It's not easy when the handwriting is on the wall for your side.

That may be why they put Juan and Brit at opposite ends of the table.

I believe Williams is just exhibiting the same level of frustration that a whole lot of dedicated liberals are displaying today. They're being forced to sit there while an utterly incompetent candidate is destroying his own campaign and the hated President Bush comes closer to reelection.

Remember when Bob Dole was running against Clinton?

"They have proven to be totally wrong."

I don't know why FOX keeps him. If I owned the network, I'd fire him. Giving your opinion about something is one thing. Telling an outright lie in an attempt to mislead the viewing public is another. There's no room for this kind of dishonesty in broadcasting and I'd expect FOX to have higher standards.
