How the Swifties came out of nowhere and won back the election for George Bush. More so than anything, credit goes to the brave Swifties. This article tells how.

Everytime the Dems kissed MM or screamed Bush was a deserter, I sent a little something to the Swifties--true heroes..

I was really surprised how strongly men and women who had served in Vietnam and in the Armed Forces felt about that, Rove said.Not just the vets, but those of us who shared the college campuses in the late'60s and early '70s with the anti-war crowd. We saw first hand the mischief, and worse, they were up to...the flagrant lies, the destruction of property, the taunts and threats they made against returning vets.
I've never, ever, forgotten those times and what they meant to my country.

The demoncrats had the MSM working for them, so they didn't take kerry's lack of Character as a problem. Fortunately for Bush, and the world, their believed that Character was not a requirement did not sit well with most of the American voters.
There have been many "explanations" for kerry's loss. It is my opinion that real reason most voted for Bush was Character. They knew that Bush possessed a tremendous amount of Character and that kerry was a charlatan.
Bush's strong religious beliefs, refusal to back away from the Iraqi war, steadfast resolve in the challenges he faced were all a part of his Character. kerry's waffling, wishy-washy positions and constant negativity were all demonstrations of his lack of Character.

I know that I'm not alone when I say that, as a Vietnam veteran, the vindication I feel with the electorate's rejection of that lying, phony bastard is one of the hi-lites of my life. And, I give all the credit for this long overdue justice to the Swifties.
I, too, made a practice of sending the Swifties another check every time I heard a Kerry supporter suggest that those heroes were lying or that President Bush didn't meet his military obligations. They got the equivalent of two checks after Lawrence O'Donnell's rant on MSNBC. I hope that they remembered to thank Larry for his help.

As for the Swifties, they dont care if pundits recognize their contribution or not. In an interview after the election John ONeill said, Were happy to fade back into our own jobs and our own places and none of us did it to try and get credit. None of us would want to be in politics, so if the commentators conclude that we had a small role or no role thats fine with us. It doesnt make any difference. "Evil prospers when good men do nothing."
These Swifties were just plain old GOOD MEN who MADE A DIFFERENCE!

The Swifties and the POWs did more than defeat Kerry. They brought our Vietnam vets home.....all the way. There is no way to express our gratitude to these men, no way. I just hope they know they completed their mission with bravery and valor.
As is their norm.

But John Kerry the other day told everyone the reason he lost was because Karl Rove engineered the Bin Laden video release.
What a total putz, and a complete loser!
