I venerate the Swift Boat Vets. They saved this country nearly singlehandedly from the scum that is John Kerry. They could have just sat at home, watched television, read the papers and groused about John F'n Kerry. Nobody would have thought less of them (and some definitely would have thought more of them!)
But they didn't.
They put their gear on, and got back to work. One of the highlights of my life was being able to spend several hours with these men outside Walter Reed Hospital in a crappy, sleeting, freezing March Friday night in 2007 before the Gathering of Eagles in Washington DC...
During the 2004 election, this was what I had on my car up here in Massachusetts:
I actually got the middle finger from a granny with a gray bun...a highlight of my life as well...:)
God bless those men, and all who served and serve (including YOU, Little Bill...:)
The Swift Boat Vets basically, saved America and Kerry's ‘career’ got the swift kick (pardon the pun) he so richly deserved, the one he had been spoiling for, for decades and from which he has NEVER recovered.
He tried ONCE TOO OFTEN to run his BS game and the Swift Boat Vets weren't having it any more!!!
I especially like the idea that Liberals are having hell to pay re-writing the history of that fight without proper mention of the whole Kerry fiasco and the timely and effective action of the Swift Boat Vets.
God bless them!!
