Thank you Swifties.

You, and all who fought in Vietnam have been vindicated.

It made me ill when Kerry did that ludicrious hand salute and said, Reporting for Duty. The real heros are the ones who didn't backstab their country and fellow Vietnam vets. John O'Neill is sterling and Kerry pales in comparison. The Dems should give him up, he's used goods.

I’m convinced that band of 250 saved the presidency from the movement that fought them in Vietnam. You know who you are. Thank you!

"The Vietnam Veterans deserve the same place of honor and gratitude as the doughboys and the flyboys. This is the new national consensus. We have the Swift Boat Veterans For Truth to thank for this new national unity, long over due."

Amen! I am so grateful to John O'neill and all the vets who worked so hard to get the TRUTH out and expose the true Kerry (and old media)...Still undermining our troops and our mission after all these years.

My state has a veterans auto plate that can be customized to branch of service and campaign. I'm seriously considering getting one next time my registration is due.

Celebrate November 2, 2004 -- May it always be known as Vietnam Veterans Victory Day!

Each and every Swifty deserves our utmost thanks!

The amount of damage and grave harm they helped save this country from is beyond calculation. It might have taken us 20 years to recover from 4 years of Flipper and Friends.

A terrible wrong has been righted as much as is possible. Who knew John sKerry would have a big ugly hand in that. I'd thank him if it didn't stick in my throat.

I shudder to think of what would have happened if not for the SwiftVets. We truly dodged a bullet 11-2 and we owe them our deepest gratitude.

Hate to rain on the parade. But I have a different take. It's not over. The battle may be won but it is not the time to rest. Kerry is defeated but he got more votes than any Democrat in history. How was this so? How did this person who so betrayed his fellow soldiers ever make it to the national arena in the first place? Kerry is but a symptom of a larger disease.

The national press did everything to elect Kerry. They are still the filter for most of America. Thanks to Buckhead, and the forum Jim Robinson provides, CBS's attempt to blatantly and fraudulently tilt the election was exposed. But no national media asked Kerry any questions at all. No one asked for the record about the form 180. There is no follow up on his discharge. There is no follow up on his dealings with the Chinese. There is no follow up about his post war involvement with Vietnam contracts (The Haiphong harbor rebuilding) There is no questions about his chairing the committee or co-chairing the committee on POW/MIA. These need to be answered to expose the disease which is the liberal domination of mass media. Otherwise the fraud goes unchallenged and attributed to a vast right wing smear machine.
What happened to the CBS investigation? What happened to questioning the timing and coordination between the 527 groups, the networks, and the Kerry campaign. What happened to Sandy Berger? What happened to the CIA leaks? Why did all this suddenly seem irrelevant now that the election is over?
Nothing is further from the truth. Now is the time to relentlessly pursue these liberals. They caused the deaths of thousands. Either passively or actively. The latest forbidden saying is to question a liberal's patriotism. I do. When you champion everyone else before your own country. You are not a patriot. When you lie, cheat, and try to steal the election, you are not a patriot. When you leak information harmful to the country in an effort to sway an election, you are not a patriot. When you filter the news so only the negative shows. You are definitely working against the best interests of your country.
The Swifties did much. But they still have the bully pulpit and this dragon isn't dead yet.
Sorry for the rant. All I see is the danger ahead.
