11/09/2007 Kerry Spokesman Sets Limbaugh Straight on Swiftboat Smears
WASHINGTON D.C. Kerry spokesman David Wade issued the following statement today in response to Rush Limbaugh, who said on his radio show that Kerrys Swift Boat attackers in 2004, were right on the money and nobody has disproven anything they claimed in any of their ads, statements, written commentaries, or anything of the sort.
At first I thought, thats not Rush, thats just the OxyContin talking. Nonetheless, this is a despicable but unsurprising new lie from a man whose closest brush with combat came when customs officials tried to take away his Viagra. This portly peddler of hate is once again wrong on the facts. John Kerry served his country with honor in Vietnam, and has fought for his fellow veterans ever since. The lies and smears of the Swift Boat Veterans for Bush were disproved conclusively in 2004 by the men who fought by John Kerrys side in Vietnam, by the militarys own records, by investigative journalists, and by the incredible contradictions that exposed these right wing smear artists. It is long past time that we end the politics of fear and smear that we have seen used against decorated veterans from John McCain to Max Cleland and John Kerry. Rush Limbaughs ignorance and determination to divide Americans is just another reminder that you cant spell Rush Limbaugh without the letters L-I-A-R.
The watchdog group Media Matters has provided an excellent fact check of the Limbaugh smear, proving once again that when it comes to slandering veterans, the right wing is wrong. The fact check can be found at: (http://mediamatters.org/items/200711090008?f=h_latest)
Like shooting fish in a barrell.
I don’t recall any proof at all, only utter denials. Wheres the beef?
Except that Flipper never signed his SF-180 to make his military records available to all - just to a couple of friendly journalists.
But he can believe what he wants. He lost in 2004, and that's what matters.
Face it, Kerry. You have earned a place in the mouth of the Devil, alongside Brutus, Cassius, Judas Iscariot, and possibly Benedict Arnold and Vidkun Quisling. And no matter what contract you signed, you ain’t getting over.
The tactics of LSM has taken a turn for the worse. Formerly, they’d just distort the facts. Now they tell bald faced lies...and the sheeple believe them.
The only name I know that spells liar is:
HILLIARY
Don't hold your breath.
Even though this guy is a moron, this statement did raise a chuckle out of me...
So what were the particular allegations that they “disproved”?
Kind of like a lawyer way of saying, “I know you are, but what am I?”
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
He didn’t say a single thing that countered Rush in that dribble.
What a nutcase!
Yup..........Out of all the guys that served with Kerry, I think two of them supported him. All the rest confirmed what the Swifters said and there were a bunch of them.
In a clearly coordinated effort, DemocratMatters demonstrates why it is not non-partisan in the spriit of its 501 (c)(3) claims.
I always know they’ve been caught in a lie when the Dems start their ‘well-reasoned refutation’ by libeling the speaker. In a way, this is encouraging, because it shows that they still don’t understand that there isn’t anybody in this country with an IQ above room temperature who doesn’t see through that stuff.
John Boy end the pain sign the 180 form, where is it?
Did he call him a Poopyhead?? That should dispel all those charges.

C’mon lying scumbag John Kerry, sign the damn form 180 to release ALL of your military records so that the whole world can see that you got a dishonorable discharge for your anti-American anti-war activities that was later in 1978 converted to an honorable discharge by Jimmy Carter when he gave amnesty to the chcikensh$t draft dodgers. CMOM KERRY SIGN THE FORM 180 AND LET US SEE ALL OF YOUR MILITARY RECORDS. NO BALLS YOU COWARD.

I could care less about the “he said, she said” nonsense Kerry is involved with. When he stands trial for the treason he committed during Vietnam .... then I will be happy until then the bugger can rot and burn in hell.
