This new, poignant Swift Boat ad, begins airing tomorrow. HUMAN EVENTS has obtained the 60-second ad that features brief comments by the wives of former Vietnam-era POWs, expressing their feelings about Kerry’s questionable post-war activities. According to sources near the Swift Boat organization, $1.4 million will be spent to get this most recent message out. The ad will appear nationally on cable, and on broadcast TV in Pennsylvania, New Mexico, and Nevada.

TRANSCRIPT, "Never Forget"
Mary Jane McManus: Three months after we were married, my husband was shot down over Hanoi.

Phyllis Galanti: Paul and I were married in 1963. Two years later he was shot down over North Vietnam.

MCMANUS: All of the prisoners of war in North Vietnam were tortured in order to obtain confessions of atrocities.

Galanti: On the other hand, John Kerry came home and accused all Vietnam veterans of unspeakable horrors.

McManus: John Kerry gave aide and comfort to the enemy by advocating their negotiating points to our government.

Galanti: Why is it relevant? Because John Kerry is asking us to trust him.

McManus: I will never forget John Kerry?s testimony. If we couldn?t trust John Kerry then, how could we possibly trust him now?

The most daming yet and can't imagine what could possibly be better, but we have to know they are saving their best for last. Wonder what it will be.
I don't know, but I've got my cable-connected-tv, my cable-modem-connected-computer and a BIG supply of popcorn. We're heading into an EXCITING campaign conclusion!

In my opinion, the "Medals" ad is the best one.
It shows Kerry's fluttering eyes, and waffling answers to Congress.
Just replaying that cut is enough to make you gag.

MIDI - JUST WHEN I NEEDED YOU MOST

(Note: you really should be listening to the MIDI when singing this...it is written to track with the particular MIDI chosen)

You came to the war zone and...joined us in battle and
A swift boat's in your command
We didn't know then you were out for yourself
And all the things you had planned

You won a few medals and for that you'd settle and
There was a record...now you could boast
Then you...had turned on us...just when it would hurt us the most
You turned on us when it would hurt us the most

Then in Senate hearings with the whole world watching you
Your brothers you had defamed
We're killers of babies and criminal scum
Of us our nation's ashamed

You won a few medals and for that you'd settle and
There was a record...now you could boast
Then you...had turned on us...just when it would hurt us the most
You turned on us when it would hurt us the most

When we came back home we thought we did our duty but
People would spit in our face
We felt that those jungles in which we had fought
Had been a friendlier place

You won a few medals and for that you'd settle and
There was a record...now you could boast
Then you...had turned on us...just when it would hurt us the most
You turned on us when it would hurt us the most

Our kids are serving now...they do it proudly and
You tell us you want to lead
We'd all walk through hell to be stopping you, John
Those words you had better heed

You won a few medals and for that you'd settle and
There was a record...now you could boast
Then you...had turned on us...just when it would hurt us the most

A response to libs


Their hands are covered in blood.


Between 10.000 and 20,000 of our men in uniform
died when in front of congress Kerry lied.

An unknown number of our POWS where tortured and
murdered when in front of congress Kerry lied.

over one million Vietnamese and over ten
million Cambodians died when in front of
congress Kerry lied.

Kerry's hands and the hands of those in congress
and the media who bought into Kerry's
lies are covered in blood.

Now look at your hands. If you are supporting
John Kerry in his bid for the office of President
of the United States your hands are also covered in
blood.

This is a powerful message from the women who were also victimized by Kerry's antiwar ambitions.

The gratitude I feel toward the Swifties for their service to our country then and their continued service with these ads is immeasurable.

Another donation heading their way.

You are correct. I think We need to be truly polling 11% or greater (Bush 52% Kerry 41% Nader 7%) to win by 1% after the fraud vote is counted. This happened in Ohio in 2000: We went in 10% up, won by 3.4%. The Demons have redoubled the fraud effort this time, but we have also increased GOTV and registration, but the net effect will still be 10% net gain on fraud for the Dims.

Just the thought of sKerry in Office, WOW.

How is it that so many Americans would actually vote for this guy, do they only listen to what the MSM tells them to think. Has the Public fool System. dumbed down so many where they haven't the ability to figure anything out for them selves anymore. Is it the fluoride in the water. I just don't get it. It sKerrys me.

That was a good one. Just viewed it.

They could have done better with one or two more wives. Four wives may have have been a good solid number to show the "massiveness" of the outrage in the ranks of such a group of Americans.

On the other hand, maybe with the ping pong between the two of them as they have it, is just as effective and less confusing.

I think this will really appeal to the breadbasket of American, the place of real American values. The "small town" as John Edwards is fond of playing before his campaign rallies.

Actually, you know, these ads keep getting better and better.

At the end of the day, though: TIME TO DONATE AGAIN TO THE SWIFT VETS!!

3 support him? Isn't this the same photo that started with just 2 that dropped to one? Is this a moving target or what?
