John O'Neill to Free Republic -- Thanks for everything...
email | November 15, 2004 | John O'Neill

Posted on 11/15/2004 12:02:56 PM PST by Interesting Times

To The Citizens Of Free Republic:

We will never ever forget your support and help. Your threads not only encouraged us but kept the truth alive in a period when Big Media sought to suppress the story. Your e-mails and phone calls to Big Media at least shamed them. The thousands of contributions we got from you helped us to organize our website, produce our earliest ads, and keep the light flickering in the darkest of times. The English at Agincourt would have executed Kerry for meeting with the enemy and betraying them. In contrast, we found a true band of brothers who stood with us and supported us. Thank you. We will never forget it.

John O'Neill
November 15, 2004

Words fail me. Except to humbly salute you for your service to the country in Viet Nam, and more recently during this so very important 2004 presidential campaign.

Thank you for serving in both of these fights when so many of your fellow citizens mistreated you in spite of your bravery and unselfish service.

From us here on Free Republic, you have our undying gratitude and respect.

It was our pleasure to donate and then to sit back and reap the rewards of the magnificent and resolved Swiftboat Vets. Bravo and it is US who should be thanking THEM. God bless them for their service and may they take heart knowing the did an even bigger service to their country by preventing kerry from EVER setting foot in the Oval office in the capacity of Commander-in-Chief. We're proud of each and every one of them and wish them nothing but happy days...they've had ENOUGH sad days since 1971.

Thank you Mr.O'Neill for all the defamations you had to put up with over the many years in the defense of Freedom.

Thank you for rubbing our collective noses in the truth of a certain senator.

Thank you. Thank you.

I hate to think what could have happened to this election without John, the Admiral and the rest of the Swifties. Bless them all, every one. Our family was honored to provide several donations, feeling the money was bound to be put to far better use by the Swifties than would have been the case had we made the donations to the usual Republican supplicants. After watching how the Swifties performed and applied their resources, we never had any doubts about helping out as much as we could. I am convinced that John O'Neill, Admiral Hoffmann and their crew made the critical difference. No matter how hard they tried, Kerry & Company were never able to mount a successful counterattack. In fact, their every attempt only made matters worse for Kerry.

So thanks to John, to the Admiral and to all the Swifties. Because of them, we are spared having to endure Clinton II (not to mention the charming and lovely Mrs. Heinz-Kerry...).

Nonsense.
It is we who owe him a debt of gratitude we can never repay.
His actions, and the concerted efforts of the SwiftVets, shined the light of truth on an historic attempt to deceive the American people.
The deceivers almost succeeded.

I keep an old biscuit tin in my den full of mementoes of special importance to me. Around the shelves are the regular snapshots and sports trophies of a proud father of two teenagers. The wedding photos, the photographs of dearly departed loved ones and just to show off I've got a signed Tom Brady football and a Manny Ramirez baseball, a harmonica from the late, great William Clarke that means the world to me...I've really got way too much stuff according to my wife!

But in the old biscuit tin go the really important things, the sort of things I want to be remembered by after I die. Most of them are too personal for this forum and besides, I wouldn't presume that they would be of interest to anyone outside of my immediate family.

I had not added anything to the tin for a long time until a few weeks ago when I received a postcard from the Swift Vets thanking me for my contribution. Dear Patriot, it says, I'm sure thousands here have the same card. But to be considered a Patriot by such truly genuine Patriots is almost embarrassing, I am humbled by their gratitude.

I want to be associated in my minuscule way with the Swift Vets in the little time capsule of my life because it is an honor to have helped them. It is an honor for John O'Neill to express his thanks to us on this forum, but it is he and his fellow Swiftees who deserve the gratitude. God Bless them and never forget them.

I salute John's courage to take those nasty people in Big Media. The way he kept his composure while they were spewing their venom was very effective.

We're still waiting for the truth to come out on Kerry's military record...

It was my pleasure to donate. I will always believe it was the Swift Vets who made the difference in this election.

Perhaps one could be written on the Swiftees recent saga.

Great idea.
