the same names and labels they (Republicans) pin on everyone

Bad choice of words there, B. Hussein.

The digital age and all it's fancy recording gadgets will do him in. Obama has no qualifications and no record to run on. He hates this country and it's people, hence the pastor for twenty years. He doesn't even know how many states are in the union he wants to run.

[txhurl]

There is apparently a swift-boat type group out there who want to sink McCain. Haven’t read any of it, I don’t want to know anymore than I already do.

Will Obama Get 'Swift-boated'?

No, that empty vessel will be Wrighted.

[STONEWALLS]

....thanks....that’s a great poster....of course just showing the truth like that will be considered “swift boating”

[GOPJ]

So the real question is: Will powerless private citizens tell the truth about a powerful political big-wig? Maybe...

[Paulus Invictus]

Excellent book about the facts re the Swifties. The libs still think swift boating was a bad thing, but it was anything but bad. I loved the Swiftees and what they did to sink Kerry, the traitor.

[Jim Noble]

Obama will have the truth told about himself, over and over and over and over.

Better put some ice on it.

[DManA]

I believe there’s still a $million on the table for anyone who can prove anything they claimed was a lie.

[A CA Guy]

I say everyone should throw it after verifying and then let them complain all they want to in Obama’s camp.

The truth is the truth.
It should be known, especially when it comes to the next possible President.

At the same respective points in their lives as grown men in their early 30s, Obama decided to sidle up to Chicago political machine bosses and their financiers and the chichi Hyde Park set of pseudo-intellectual socialists to begin advancing his political career. That earned Obama an appointment to a State Senate seat in 1996.

The Chicago Tribune might been some help getting Obama that state senate seat. A couple of names: Hull and Jack Ryan. Anyone recall these guys? There's an article,I'll see if I can find it again.

McCain would not walk unless the other POWs who had been captured before him were also released. That earned McCain an additional five years of torture in a Viet Cong prison camp and, for all he knew at the time, was a decision that would cost him his life.

What would you have done if presented with the same offer with which McCain was presented?

An excellent question...that should be embarrassing to keyboard warriors who so breathlessly work to enable Obama.

[Tenacious 1]

I say there is nothing wrong with swiftboating. I define swiftboating as exposing truth to reveal character. I love swiftboating as long is it is truthful.

The swiftboaters greatest phrase was “release your records” “Sign the paper”. There was never a response to this.

It should be embarrassing to them but, the sad fact is that it will not be.

[Tenacious 1]

I believe there’s still a $million on the table for anyone who can prove anything they claimed was a lie.

Has anyone ever even actually refuted anything they claimed? Not including character assasination of the men themselves.

I was 18 and just out of a small country high school when I went to UNC Chapel Hill. 1946. The same year the GI bill made it possible for the WWII vets to go to college.

I roomed on a dorm floor that had 4 rooms to the floor, two men to each room.

There was a real honest to God war hero in every room on that floor. One room had two.

Typical was Edgar Denton, still a kid in his 20’s who was a B17 pilot, shot down over Germany and who had spent enough time in a POW camp that he was skin and bones.

Bill Bellew, who had flown in China before the US got into the war and who like the rest of his kind, came home and joined up when we declared war. A Marine fighter pilot.

Karl Kurbjohn, who flew B24’s out of England.

My room mate, A. P. Ellis, who walked across Italy from the first day of the invasion.

All real heroes.

Did that make them qualified to be president? Great men and I learned much from them all, but it takes more than being a war hero to qualify for president.

McCain is a hero, but like my heroes in college not qualified.

This country is in trouble.

I’d like to give Obama a “swift boat’ right up his arse!
