It is obvious to us that Kerry is lying on his website. He has already changed and revised it several times over the past few months. The point is that we also have primary source documents to prove that he is lying and misrepresenting the facts. It is up to the media and the RNC to bring these issues up to Kerry and the public. I share your frustration. We have pundits saying that all of the SBVFT charges have been refuted, when the fact is that none of them have.
We are dealing with a partisan MSM. How do you effectively challenge Kerry on these issues? Kerry went into hiding for over a month after Unfit for Command came out. Now that he has poked his head out of his hole a few times, no one has asked him about XMAS Eve in Cambodia, his first PH, or his antiwar activities such as meeting with the Vietnamese Communists in Paris, which Kerry apologists describe as "meeting with both sides" giving the imression he met with the South Vietnamese when in fact he met with the North Vietnamese and the NLF (Viet Cong). Or attending a VVAW meeting in KC, at which assassination of USG officials was discussed.
It is not our responsibility to prove that Kerry "misspoke" or was "mistaken". It is Kerry's responsibility to prove that he did not flat out lie to America.
How do you propose to get Kerry to prove that he did not lie? He has to be challenged and confronted. I am really disappointed that the RNC has shied away from going after Kerry's military record and antiwar activities. They are initimidated by Kerry's status as a war hero. Bush stated in the debate that he admired Kerry for his military service.
In spite of all the "Pajama People" hoopla over the CBS fraud case, the fact remains that the average American voters are pathetically informed and most of them do get their news from the MSM which is pathetically biased.
If we did have a news media as eager to examine Kerry's record as it is eager to sabotage Bush, FreeRepublic would be a gold mine of information for them as we spend hours doing the investigations that they should be doing themselves.
For this election, I believe that the most effective thing I have done is to send a contribution to the Swift Vets.
As for the research we carry out and then post on FreeRepublic, all we can hope for is that someone with a greater audience than we have sees it and then runs with it.
