JOHN O'NEILL ON NIGHTLINE TONIGHT (Dems are e-mailing Ted Koppel to stop it!)

Nightline e-mail ^ | 10/14/04

But blatantly using the VC as if we were all mind-numbed robots?

Well, in an effort to be fair the VC gal did type up an after action report using Microsoft Word and a Dell Dimension 4500 35 years ago to keep the memory fresh.

[STFrancis]

I REALLY wish John would have made that point....

[Lancey Howard]

I caught the interview with O'Neill, but I don't think I get where Koppel is coming from - - did he go to Vietnam to find old peasants who say, 35 years after the fact, that the brave Lt. Kerry struck fear into the enemy when he single-handedly fought off 20 dangerous Vietnam elite fighters?

[Wonderama]

I have to hand it to Ted Koppel, even if it's killing him, he is giving John O'Neill his time. Hey a little balance never hurt anyone Ted.

[txradioguy]

Dead you just caused me to hit a button on this website I've never hit before.

[jayef]

Hey Ted, how 'bout you have the little commie bastards bulldoze the garden and show you the weapons?

[spycatcher]

He needs to clearly state that the Communist government currently in Vietnam has a vested interest in a Kerry win. They arranged the boat trip, they gave Nightline the clearances. They told the villagers what to say!

This is now the point we all need to make about this Nightline/VC abomination. Get this point out -- which you have said so succinctly -- to RNC, Hannity, Rush... likely suspects.

Not only that, but wasn't Kerry the primary force behind normalizing relations with Vietnam and clearing them of holding our POWs after the war? They would be ecstatic if their war hero became our President.

From all the other threads that I've read, you my friend are in the minority!!!

There are a lot of threads about this show tonight!!

Check 'em out.

Did John O'Neill lose his cool, or did he hold it together?

Considering that Ted wanted to believe a bunch of commies over American Veitnam Vets

John looked a little ticked .. but he handled himself pretty good

[Nov3]

This is getting good. O'Neill calls Koppel "pathetic".

I blew water through my nose at that one!! O'Neil was baited and switched just before he came on the screen and he improvised and KICKED ASS.

[kristinn]

O'Neill's an attorney. He's not going to assert things he doesn't know to be true. That's why he kept saying they interviewed people in a closed society, that there was a government minder with them and that the communist government honored Kerry in the war museum.

He cast reasonable doubt on the credibility of the villagers featured in the interviews.

ROFL!!!

[MJY1288]

Ted Koppel and NightLine had to ask for entrance into Vietnam and explain the reason for their visit. The COMMUNIST Vietnamese had weeks to prepare for this visit and prep the Villagers on what to say and the "Minder" was there to make sure they did and said what they were told.

For Ted Koppel to use this kind of questionable testimony from those Villagers to try and discredit John O'Neil and the other 255 Swift Boat veterans is an outrage and I think we should all email that a$$hole and tell him what we think of him being a tool for the Communist Vietnamese Government

My EMail to ABC...

Just saw your interview with John O'Neill re Kerry's silver star incident where you take the word of some former NV soldiers...soldiers from a country who lauds Kerry as a hero of their communist victory, over the word of our own AMEIRCAN soldiers, and over the words of Kerry himself. Boy did you look bad on this one.

Let me ask you one question John O'Neill had too much class to ask...how much did you pay those guys?

Knock it off.

[Billthedrill]

Chill.

[spycatcher]

ABC's new tagline - Always Believe the Communists!

[Siobhan]

Yes, I think he was very successful at that, but I think dead's little summation was also really good (minus the evaluation of John's performance) because we need something really sharp and incisive to zap the Nightline/VC piece as we phone in to shows, e-mail, talk it up etc.

Often there is very little time to connect with some people on these points, and I thought dead's summary was helpful.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Seems to me if Kerry HAD served honorably, there would be no problem. His actions following his discharge cause rational folks to ask questions that he refuses to answer. Of course, he has finessed the question as expected with the expected help of the sycophant MSM. Therefore, there is almost 100% chance that he is guilty as charged (e.g. he received a less-than-honorable discharge). Is anyone surprised?
