Font size=5> ANTI-KERRY VETS GATHER FOR ASSAULT; BOOK CLAIMS KERRY WAR 'FABRICATIONS'
Kerry admitted much of this in his Congressional testimony. I don't know how he is going to counter this besides saying the old line, "I question the timing of this".
I look forward to marching into B&N first thing that morning and making a big fuss over finding and buying the book...
I will stand by the register and read passages aloud, and pretend to be SHOCKED, I TELL YOU, SHOCKED!!!!!
Vigourly counter....how? By screaming shrilly, swearing and launching counter attacks at the veterans or by calmly answering the challenges with facts and in a manner that portrays credibility.
Never mind, rhetorical question.

I suspect he means the embargo of using quotes and excerpts from a book pre release.
It means he is going to start sharing details from the book before it is released. The term "embargo" first came up during the Dem campaign where the press was given a copy of Kerry's speech but established an "embargo" preventing it from being printed until a certain time.
I thought the book didn't come out until the tenth?
If it comes out earlier I will buy it earlier!
...and Kerry is financially supported by his Mozambique mama.
Is there any way to check if PETA is donating to Kerry, the slaughterer of innocent animals?
Domestic animals include what.....chickens, pigs, dogs, cats?

ANTI-KERRY VETS GATHER FOR ASSAULT; BOOK CLAIMS KERRY WAR 'FABRICATIONS'
**Exclusive**
A veterans group seeking to deeply discredit Democrat John Kerry's military service will charge in the new bombshell book UNFIT FOR DUTY:
# Two of John Kerry's three Purple Heart decorations resulted from self-inflicted wounds, not suffered under enemy fire.
# All three of Kerry's Purple Hearts were for minor injuries, not requiring a single hour of hospitalization.
# A "fanny wound" was the highlight of Kerry's much touted "no man left behind" Bronze Star.
# Kerry turned the tragic death of a father and small child in a Vietnamese fishing boat into an act of "heroism" by filing a false report on the incident.
# Kerry entered an abandoned Vietnamese village and slaughtered the domestic animals owned by the civilians and burned down their homes with his Zippo lighter.
# Kerry's reckless behavior convinced his colleagues that he had to go -- becoming the only Swift Boat veteran to serve only four months.
The Kerry campaign is planning to vigorously counter the charges and will accuse the veteran's groups of being well-financed by a top Bush donor from Texas, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
"They hired a goddamn private investigator to dig up trash!" charged a top Kerry adviser traveling with the senator late Tuesday. "This is pay for play, and the dirtiest of all dirty tricks ever played on a candidate for the presidency. How low can they go?"
Kerry supporters are comparing the effort by the veterans to the Arkansas State troopers tell-all against Bill Clinton.
UNFIT FOR DUTY will not be released until August 15.
The names. The details. All on the record.
Beginning tomorrow, the DRUDGE REPORT will break the embargo.
I agree. People get very emotional about stories involving animals.
Look how fast Arnold changed his stance on putting animals to sleep quicker than before. The public outcry was so large he changed his mind quickly.
Hopefully this time they will get the attention they deserve.
Thanks for the clarification.
The publisher gave Drudge an advance copy of the book on the condition that he not divulge its contents before a certain date. That date is apparently tomorrow.
Maybe Drudge means an "embargo" of missing press about Kerry's VietNam skeletons.

An embargo in journalism is a prohibition on releasing a story until a particular time. Only after that time can a story be released. Most stories don't come with embargoes.
Hmm. Does the name Soros come to mind? Nahhh. He only finances Kerry's allies to dig up trash against Bush.
Kerry supporters are comparing the effort by the veterans to the Arkansas State troopers tell-all against Bill Clinton.
And the troopers were telling the truth, weren't they?
This book won't get nearly the attention of Farenheit 911.
