I don't think that they Swifty ads accuse Kerry of treason, but of betrayal. There is a difference.

Kerry is a traitor.

That's true. John O'Neill (who is himself an attorney) explained that "treason" is a criminal charge, and that it is now too late to prosecute Kerry for it. But he still betrayed America.

I have to agree. I would even say that we should go no further than saying that John Kerry did not act in the best interests of his country. Using loaded words like "treason" won't resonate well with viewers. Think of AlGore calling Bush a "traitor." All it did was make AlGore look like a nut.

You are correct the new ad does not acuse Kerry of treason, just betrayal.

These are links for the new SwiftVet ad.

Exactly. I saw John O'Neill on Hannity & Colmes a few nights ago and Colmes kept pressing him to openly accuse Kerry of treason. Mr. O'Neill refused to do so, saying he didn't want to get into a discussion regarding legalities. He stuck to the 'betrayal' charge, which is great because its exactly what al-Gore accused our president of!
