Last night, before the V-P debate, I was privileged to go to a book signing and speech by John O'Neill and Buzz Patterson. If you could all see John O'Neill in person, there would be no doubt in your minds that he is the most honest man around. He and Buzz Patterson said they were surprised that the Bush campaign wanted nothing to do with them. John O'Neill donated his kidney to his wife in January. He was contacted by Admiral Hoffman about doing something about John Kerry. O'Neill said that everyone in the unit would all drink out of the same barrel of water for unity, all except John Kerry. He said that John Kerry was told by his superior officers to leave after 3 months. They were worried about his safety because he was so disliked by the men. He was never one of them. One time someone caught him sitting in the mess hall alone at night, with his face covered with green and black paint, talking into his camera about his made up adventures of the day. They decided they had to do something because of the lies he told about all of them when he came home. He was not discharged until 2001, and O'Neill said they didn't know why because it is locked in the papers Kerry won't release. O'Neill said that the Kerry campaign has hired a busload of protestors to follow him around and disrupt his speaking engagements. They weren't there last night because it was a private group. He said they raised 4 million dollars last weekend when they asked for more money. They will be running two more commercials before the election. O'Neill said that Kerry's version of the Rasmussen story is a total fabrication. He said they all circled around the swift boat that had hit the mine and John Kerry ran away. They are worried about the effect a Kerry presidency would have on the troops. It was an honor to meet these 2 brave men.
