Whatever you usually think of him, tune into Savage live now!
He's spending the show (again) on getting the swiftboat vets story out there. His guest will be, for the second time, the machine gunner who served with John Kerry on his boat. Steve Gardner, I believe is his name.
Also, Savage is expressing his disappointment with Fox News, specifically O'Reilly, for spiking this story and essentially calling the veterans liars. Savage says it's because O'Reilly wants to get John Kerry on his show.
I hope Monica Crowely is up on the latest. Tony Snow is interviewing her right now about the Swiftboat ad
I can't tell if Gardner is still with him, or if it's just callers now.
Think about the impact of the SwiftVets advertisement.
http://www.swiftvets.com/
To most of us it has a tremendous impact, but does it even have an impact on swing voters?
Good question. So I thought about it. Kerry has a couple of Vets that served with him touring along his side. Why should we not believe them instead?
Simple, very simple. Picture that you are retired and an ex-coworker asked you to tour the country gratis? Five star hotels, private jets, swimming pools and movie stars. Cool huh?
If you respected the person and thought him qualified you would probably be happy to join him.
However, rather than join him you mount a campaign that raised 1/2 million dollars and created an advertisement with numerous medal winners who knew him and are now stating that he is a liar and incompetent to be President.? These men stayed out of every Senatorial election even though they were invited by Kerry’s opponents. They say that this isn’t political, and that they don’t care about Massachusetts. They do care about America.
No free hotels or jet rides, just working in the grassroot trenches raising money to try to protect out country.
Who are you going to believe, Kerry's sellouts or the real deal with the resolve to continue to uphold their pledge concerning enemies foreign and domestic?
BTW, according to Rush 31 Congressional Medal of Honor winners have signed a document opposing Kerry. I don't have a link......yet.

Why is the caller talking about jobs? I want to hear more from Gardner.
Did any of you all hear tahrayzuh and other top rats claim during the DNC that kerry served 2 tours in nam?
Did report the RETRACTION of the Boston Globe story. The left (GUESS) is spinning that GW is behind this. Called the VETS cronies.
So why don't we ask Kerry to sign the CF-180 records release form at the next Kerry rally?
It's really simple. Besides the media asked Bush to release all his military records.
This Swift Boat Vets for the Truth issue has some serious legs. H-ll, its got wings....and its taking off.
Hey Hey, Ho Ho, Kerry sign the 180!
Yeah...xanax does weird things to her.
Savage asking if any women are interested in this topic. I represent that remark, and I say YES!
I agree. The only reason this is coming up is that Kerry keeps showing off all these swift boat vets and saying that they're all behind him. A bold-faced lie!!
These guys deserve to tell their side of the story. Shame on anyone who doesn't want to hear what these guys think. Kerry almost single-handedly made them hang their heads in shame when they came back from Nam, and now he's trying to call them liars again!
"Hey Hey Ho Ho Kerry sign the 1 8 0"
That would be a great chant for FReeper protests and signs!!
Those Legs are the Vets themselves.
They've been shot down by the media consistently but they kept at it. The media can't take these guys down. They've got steel rods implanted in their backs.
I represent that remark too. :>)
Ha! Savage says Bill O'Reilly and all the rest of them have to interview Steve Gardner or "They're full of crap!"
He said that the DNC lawyers can try to sue him for playing the ad, but he's not playing it as an "ad", but as a "news story". Good one!
Anyone have Savage's call-in number handy? He's asking for people to call and tell him if they care about this story...
Drat. Gotta check on supper. I'll leave it to you and catch up later.
Thanks for your help with the transcripts. See you later!
