CNN 6 P.M. EST. DOUGLAS BRINKLEY GOING TO TRASH SWIFT BOATS AGAIN
10/19/2004 | me

While changing channels I caught a commercial with Lou Dobbs announcing Brinkley is going to be on his show tonight talking about his controversial book Tour of Duty. He did this last nite on O"Blowhard and now it looks like he's going to get another chance. Yet again, POW'S and vets get trashed by Kerry and his ilk. Time to majorly freepmail these two.

Poor Brinkley. The Swifties took a big bite out of his Kerry Hagiography book sales.

This guy has an agenda beyond all belief.
Is he related to David Brinkley?

Bet John O'Neill freaked them out during his appearance on Laura Ingraham's radio show this morning.

Damage control, anyone?

I am certain they invited John O'Neill on to defend his book. [/sarcasm]

GOOD! Keeps the Swift Vets in the news. The MSM is too stupid to know any better. They are the ones that keep giveing the story life. MORE! MORE!

Brinkley's an idiot.........Kerry made a fool of him, but he's still carrying Live Shot's water.

Of course, the leader of the Swifties will also be there to rebut. (sarcasm off)

I heard Brinkley smear the Swift Vets last night. It must be embarrassing to do a book on a presidential candiate and then have 250+ guys who were there say that some of it is pure bunk.

He's his son.

I actually think that Brinkley is not one of the worst historians. I always thought that Beshloss and Lichtman were much worse.

Kearn Goodwin and Shlesinger are the worst, it not outright fabricators.
