To say that Nightline found "the one group" who hasn't weighed in on Kerry's Vietnam service is total BS. While we've all heard ad nauseum from the 9-11 families and have heard all the press talk about how Bush has offended them by using the images of 9-11, WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN OF VIETNAM, who had to endure John Kerry's legacy of lies, both then and now, during this campaign?

I am one of those children, and had to endure teachers who censured me, people who told me (as a small child) "YOUR DADDY DESERVED TO DIE IN VIETNAM -- HE WAS A BABYKILLER". We watched our moms, young widows who were afraid to say what happened to their husbands because they never knew whether they might get sympathy or hate. All because John Kerry testified before the world that our fathers committed atrocities at every level of command. His lies based on hear-say hurt ALL of us, for years and years, and yet who's interviewed us?

Many of us kids of Vietnam participated in a huge rally on Capitol Hill on Sept. 12, hoping to explain how Kerry's actions impacted our lives, yet your ABC Washington bureau couldn't even walk downt the street to cover it.

And now you send people to Vietnam?!!!!

I am ashamed to have gone to journalism school. Ashamed to have been a journalist. I have NEVER been so disgusted with the news media in my life. ABC and other national news has been COMPLICIT in helping the Kerry campaign this year, diminishing the heartfelt testimony of American heroes and trying to demonize a group of valiant men who actually served with John Kerry. You call it the "fog of war" -- I call it "marginalizing our heroes".

How can we trust you to cover this war? The answer is -- we don't.

We are the sons and daughters of American fighting men. In many cases, we are now the sons and daughters who fight this war on global terrorism,or keep the home fires burning while our spouses, brothers and sisters deploy to keep America safe. WE earned the right to speak, yet you only seek those who might help discredit our heroic Swift Boat Veterans.

Just as ABC tries to marginalize the Swift Boat Veterans, you ignore us in order to interview people who might or might not be legitimate.

We will never forget this. Many of us will be working, even after this election, to make sure truth is known about our national "journalists" and their biased ABUSE of trust.

You, as well as John Kerry, hurt us then, perpetuating myths about our fathers, and you cannot admit that you were wrong today. That's just shoddy.

I had the honor of meeting and speaking to John O'Neill at the Kerry Lied Rally. He is, without a doubt, also one of the kindest men I have ever met. Just a NICE man. It is apparent from the moment you meet him.

I wouldn't expect a return call from ABC for an interview. ;-)

Great rant. We live in Alice's Wonderland right now. It's the only explanation for the fact that an obvious traitor is a contender for the Presidency.

Shoddy is a word that goes well with the Kerry campaign.

Especially if you're a Cheney daughter, a Vietnam vet, a paraplegic, a victim/soldier of the war, a 9-11 widow...

Can we think of any other "tools" of his campaign?

Here's a Thumbs Up for O'Neill!!!!

John O'Neill VS The EVIL Empire!!

Chief Evil-doer "Hillary" Predicts October Surprise!!

From Three Part Article About George Soros: By Richard Poe

Hillary Clinton told the New York Post’s Cindy Adams on March 30 that an October Surprise would likely decide the 2004 election.

"It will be outside forces – something unforeseen that suddenly happens – that tilts the election one way or the other," she predicted, with an odd note of certainty.

Was Hillary just guessing? Or does she know something we don’t?

The rumblings are in the air.

9-11 was meant to topple Bush.

What is the attack of 10-04 intended to do??

Certainly, the Democrats goaded Bush
during the debates to admit that the Iraq War
was successful because it has kept terrorists
"over there" instead of over here.

Now that the evil-egg heads "know" the strategy
all they have to do is bring the enemy here...

I really think a president should NOT debate
in a time of war. It is impossible to detail
his position without being forced to also show his hand.

And Hillary Clinton fully expects the same thing...

October Surprise would likely decide the 2004 election.

"It will be outside forces – something unforeseen that suddenly happens – that tilts the election one way or the other," she predicted, with an odd note of certainty.

She believes the polls and thinks it's becoming too close.

The "October Surprise" will come from somewhere deep within the Clinton (ptooie) camp that will leave Kerry and co. dead in the water thereby clearing the way for her in '08.

All it takes is a read of "American Evita" to see just how ruthless Hitlery can really be. Just ask Vince Foster...

How about:
The "top two percent..."
The "common man"
The "disadvantaged" or "less fortunate"

Well put! My pop flew in a Huey! He's pretty tight lipped to this day about everything that happened during the Vietnam war. One thing he's not tight lipped about is his utter contempt for John Kerry.

You just gotta take what the big 3 does these days with a grain of salt. ABC, NBC, and CBS realize their time as a reputable news leader is over. They've lost their monopoly to the Internet, Fox News and Talk Radio shows.

It's just more blatant now that the cat is out of the bag.

All due respect elmore, my friend, some of us are tired of taking it with a grain of salt, and I think even after this election is over we won't stop trying to tell the truth of what they've done to swing this election.

Hoping 9 out of ten FReepers will help us out!

Folks are confusing the grave of the husband of the woman they interviewed which is what was shown with that of the boy Kerry shot. They are two different people. The grave of the boy Kerry shot was not shown.

I found an address and phone number for Kyle Horst, the freelance producer mentioned in the story. If anyone would like it please PM me and I'll pass it along.

I don't mean to imply that you should lie down or anything. I'm also all with a continued effort after the elections are over. My point is simply that the mainstream media has a leftist agenda obviously, they're slowly committing suicide and while I quite frequently get very hot at the t.v. screen and even more frequently start yelling at the idiots appearing on my t.v. screen it doesn't do me any good.

That said, I'm all for the assisted suicide approach. If you wanna go after these guys and make headway then we all need to be calm, calculated, and deliberate. Remember Liberals argue feelings, conservatives argue facts. We need to get our facts together in one highly visible, highly concentrated place so we can launch a steady barrage of facts the mainstream media cannot ignore. You know sorta like tying the noose around their necks and then while we're at it pushing em off the cliff. ;)

Just my .02
