An absolutely brilliant piece of marketing! I'm sure that the Kerry campaign is hemoraging after seeing this one. No better defense than to use a mans's own voice and his own words against him for the whole whole to hear him announce what a ratbastard traitor he really is. Now, please excuse me as I need to go make another donation to SBVT.

Some of us can't play MS windows media player format video. How about putting the new ad up in QuickTime and Real format as well - just like was done for the original ad!

Please!!!!

Sad

air_vet,

If you're using a Mac, you can go to this link and download Windows Media Player for Mac OS. The ad will then play if you use the second link given.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/players.aspx

It's an extremely well done and powerful ad. Nice job SwiftVets!

Very powerful ad. I only wish it could be more widely shown. Just heard a news report that played part of it. God bless all vets and soldiers.

Arguing now on Fox about new ad. John Kerry didn't make the accusations directly, he was "speaking for others". Other side says yes, he was the face of the movement...

it is still on....

They also say that by running this ad, it proves that they have given up on the "medals" story and are now "trying something else"

Great ad. Brings tears to my eyes. God help us if Hanoi John gets elected. He is one nasty piece of work.

Like the last one, this one will get cable news coverage and I'm sure it will soon be up on this site in a variety of formats so that everyone can see it.

It is truly a devastating piece. To hear 6 & 7 year POW's talk about what Kerry told the Congress and what it meant to them.

Paraphrasing.

"John Kerry gave the enemy for free what those of us in the camps took torture for, in order to avoid saying."

"We were tortured to try to get us to admit to war crimes."

Things like this have been posted all over the place, but it doesn't have the impact that these men have. Incredible.

Rush is all over this ad and Salon.com story. Says J. O'Neil will be guest Monday 1:00 hour.

Nice work on the ad. A devastating kick to the solar plexus if I've ever seen one.

Anyone know where I can download an offline version of the file?

That's a very damaging ad against Kerry. It's short, gets the point across, and will make people too young to remember the Vietnam war ask questions. Well done, I'm proud of the people that put that together. I'd like to hear McCain's reaction to this, he'll have a hard time refuting it.
