The vast majority of those funds were contributed *after* the Swift Vets had already dealt enormous political damage to the Kerry campaign in August 2004. That was made possible primarily by tens of thousands of small online donations.
The lie the leftists are promoting this week is that the Swift Vets were the creation of their top donors. In fact, those donors saw the Swift Vets gutting Kerry like a fish and reached into their wallets to reinforce that success.
My husband and I were one of those tens of thousands of small donors and consider it the BEST political contribution either of us ever made to anything or anyone. I can't remember which of the 3 it was who gave a sizable donation prior that got the whole thing off the ground and made it possible for the Swift Vets to collect all the small donations.
This article seems to be p.o.'d that the Swift Vets didn't go away after '04. All I'm saying is that they would go away if Soros would tell his lackeys in Congress to end 527's, but of course, they enacted the legislation to give him power, and he's not about to do that to get rid of these 3 pikers who are spending a drop in the bucket compared to what he and his socialist buddies spend.
