Kerry's only response to the swift vets was to sic lawyers on them and his butt buddies in the MSM.
The last thing he wants is for this to get into the MSM. So he will not respond until forced to.
Then he will be the victim of the evil/vile Nixon.
Am I too conspiratorial in believing that maybe Ahnold knew something about this (maybe not details) when he praised Nixon at the RNC?
They are spent and overplayed their hand.
By going after Sinclair with such vitriole and viciousness, they neutered any attempts that "this is a smear". Kerry's lawyering up for SBVT, they're intimidation and threatening to pull the linceses of Sinclair Broadcasting, what left is there?
If they go after this story hard, the MSM will have to report it - they will have no choice.
Agreed. But the point is if there was nothing to this, he could have responded immediately with a forceful, adamant DENIAL.
That Kerry chose not to speaks volumes. And that will fuel the fire.
