"...couldn’t stop the book, couldn’t suppress the documentary, couldn’t silence the veterans, and, crucially, couldn’t prevent the public from learning the facts the old media wouldn’t report via talk radio and the Internet."

More to the point, couldn't stop the effect of the callously renewed, intense social rancor which Kerry's original broadside on the Military and middle America had initiated. Viet Nam vets were asked to sit still for too much yet again. THAT'S how out touch with this country that Kerry is and demonstrated himself to be at every opportunity to demonstrate otherwise.

BTTT!!!!!!!

Thanks for the ping!

[The Right Stuff]

Vet ping! Great job, Scott, it will make for a wonderful book someday!

When the guys came home from Vietnam to a horrible lack of welcome, they were already too broken from battle to fight Kerry and his ilk. John O'Neill took Kerry on then, too.

Now that 30 or more years have passed, the boys that fought in Vietnam have grown up, in most cases prospered, and put a lot of what they saw in Vietnam behind them. Kerry was just assuming that they'd put his betrayal behind as well. Boy, was he wrong!!!

I'd like to thank those vets YET AGAIN for their faithful service to our country.

Fortunately for America, and Americans, they did not forget, and they have not forgiven.

Remember - the fight is not yet over. Kerry must be kicked out of the senate, too!

"a number of middle-aged men who had long since put the Vietnam War behind them contemplated the dismal prospect of John Kerry as America’s Commander-in-Chief

I never felt bad about being a Viet Nam vet.........

But never have I felt so good about it......

Thanks, guys.

These guys beat a slob filmmaker with a fake documentary, a billionaire drug pusher, a few other RAT billionares, the leftist elite media, network news, the Drunken Lifeguard and his elected RAT pals, the joke called Air America, and the Hollywood leftist glitterati. Mission accomplished.

Vietnam jumped up and bit Kerry on the "butt tocks" as
Forrest Gump would say.

[Oldsailor]

The swifties are the true heroes if this election and indeed of the veitman war. Kerry is and always has been a pure phoney.
