If you have a VERY strong stomach, you might want to read the review of GOING UPRIVER: THE LONG WAR OF JOHN KERRY that is published on page 53 of the 1 October issue of Entertainment. (It just arrived in the mail today.) It opens "Arm yourselves, future voters, with insight into a candidate...." and then it gets even more ridiculous. The reviewer "OG" actually gave it an "A". (A few pages later in the same issue, the DVD of Fahrenheit 9/11 only gets an A-.)

I read somewhere that this is going to be hitting the states around
Oct. 1st. I wonder if the documentary Stolen Honor has any
chance of getting air time on fox, or in theatres?

I may go if it comes around here, it will be good for alot of snickers, laughs and occasional booing - I'm not afraid of getting kicked out.
I know most of you don't want to put any money into Kerry's already deep pockets, that's one of main reasons why I refused to go to Moore's
piece de crape. But there's nothing wrong with being a rather polite pest,
I can see myself saying "you've got to be kidding?" or "this is such crap!" "This guy is unbelievable!" It'll be fun.

Check out what the Boston Globe said about the flick, it has some very big potential problems for Kerry, remember this propumentary was made by George Butler, Kerry's busom buddy since 1964, who also co-wrote the
Last Soldier, plus another book about Kerry, "John Kerry, A Portrait"
This guy has also taken over 6,000 photos of John. I'd say he really, really, likes John Kerry.

Dang, I just ate, time to upchuck. The guy he was "gently" asking to speak was the guy that recently said Kerry told him to make stuff up.

I wish I could remember the site --- but an interview with of someone who "ran" with that crowd in Boston in the 70's/80's--- before his first Senate election made several insightful remarks.

That Julia Thorne knew John was not a faithful husband. She gave gifts to friends that acknowledged and ridiculed John's philandering.

The story also stated at cocktail parties when Kerry would start pontificating his wife would scoff at him. (No adoring glances).

The implications of the article were that Julia's bouts with depression were somehow attributed to an unhappy marriage to John. The remark was Julia is happy now, that she is happily remarried and has no comments about John.

This review conjures up a vision of Beatle-like groupies, hopping up and down, clapping their hands and cooing, "Look how heroic he is!" This punk just keeps on getting cheesier and cheesier. sheesh.

Here is all you need to know about "Going Upriver (without a paddle):"

[RMalloy]

"Bring It On" Kerry said, supposedly to Bush back when he became the
DNC "IT" boy back at the first of the year. The "bring it on's" continued
throughout the year. Kerry would give a stump speech, pound his puny
chest and declare "BRING IT ON."

So, the Swiftvets did just that. They "BROUGHT IT ON." Not with rumors or innuendo, but cold, hard facts and observations in a very well written concise book released after the DNC Convention where Kerry juxtaposed his Vietnam experience as his very foundation for becoming our next Commander in Chief. Memories of Kerry bounding across the stage with
vintage footage of Kerry's own 8mm films of his days in war torn Vietnam.
Kerry saluting his tiny "band of brothers."

After the release of the book and the first ads were put by the
Swiftvets for Truth, the "bring it on's" ceased. They were replaced by
"MAKE THEM STOP." Kerry and his minions tried in numerous ways to
get the ads to stop, even pleading with Bush to tell the Swiftvets to go away.

Kerry already had his version of his days in the Navy ready to go before the public. His book, Tour of Duty, which came out this year,and now his Documentary, Going Upriver. The book has so far sold only 38,000 copies.
The movie is based on the book. So the movie is based on a book based on Kerry's journals, notes, and the official Navy documents that he has chosen to release. Journals full of Kerry's whimsical musings, historical references,fabrications, and embellishments. The Swiftvet's cold hard facts pulled the pinnings out from underneath Kerry's, one can only read his book with astonishment as to how far the book attempts to paint Kerry as, well, practically a God amongst mere mortals.

The movie is the next weapon in his arsenal. Since the Swiftvets have made it impossible for Kerry to have any press conferences then he has
to let his book, and the movie speak to the masses. Amazingly the press has ignored Kerry's book, even they realize a piece of trollope when they
read one. The press seems to have ignored the Swiftvet's claims yet they
have used some of those very claims against Kerry. The press, on the whole, are pretty much a lazy bunch and will not admit they let others do their work for them, such as the Swiftvets have done.

So it will be interesting to see the effect of the movie, I believe it will
bring the Swiftvets right back into the equation, something Kerry prays
will not happen. And believe me, Kerry does not pray very often.

John Kerry is in it? That can't be good for John Kerry.
