WASHINGTON — A new ad featuring wives of Vietnam POWs criticizing John Kerry's (search) testimony before the Senate in 1971 will begin airing Thursday.
The new ad is by Swift Vets and POWs for Truth (search), an expansion of the earlier Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.
The group's ad buy is its largest yet — $1.4 million — and the ad can be seen on broadcast affiliates in Pennsylvania, New Mexico and Nevada and on national cable channels.
In the ad, titled "Never Forget," John Kerry is quoted from his 1971 testimony to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, in which he alleged widespread war crimes condoned up and down the American chain of command.
A graphic shows a quotation from Kerry in which he said U.S. soldiers and sailors "had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads" of Vietnam civilians.
Mary Jane McManus, wife of former POW and retired Air Force Cpt. Kevin McManus, and Phyllis Galanti, wife of former POW and retired Navy Cmdr. Paul Galanti, then discuss the internment of their husbands in Vietnam.

Never Forget!

This one's gonna leave a mark...
I like that they are back to using testimonials from people affected by Kerry's treasonous behavior, rather than the usual ominous negative ad narrator.
ka-boom!
Excellent! Kerry betrayed America then and, given the chance, he would betray it again now. Didn't we already have a traitor in the White House -- Bill Clinton? Has the Democratic Party actually become the Anti-American Party? Looks that way, doesn't it?

Thank you, Marine!

Never forget. Never forgive.
"Has the Democratic Party actually become the Anti-American Party?"
Where have you been? That started way back when the Demonrats nominated McGovern.
"Just sent $50 to the Swiftees with a big Semper Fi.
USMC 59-65...."
Ok, ok. Darn, shownup by the Marines again. My $50 was just sent.
