I am not sure if anyone has seen this, but if it is true, then it's going to reaaly nasty in the next fews days...

Dems Plan Assault on Vets

UPDATE: The Prowler says the Kerry campaign says the media will not push the Swifties story because they want Kerry to win.
UPDATE: It’s starting. We guess David Brock over at Media Matters for America received a “Brown Book.” He attempts a character hit on Jerome Corsi, one of the authors of Unfit for Command.

The Democrat National Committee has prepared a full-scale assault against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth to draw their character and veracity into question, according to one anonymous source inside the DNC. The campaign of character assassination is scheduled to coincide with the release of the book Unfit for Command which reveals inconvenient facts for the Kerry campaign.

“We have prepared what we call ‘Brown Books’ that contain damaging military records, personal credit histories, medical histories, psychiatric histories, divorce records, you name it,” our source told us. "We've got the goods on the Veterans who oppose Kerry."

Please click READ MORE …

The “Brown Books” are so called because of their distinctive plain brown covers, which contain no words. Some books have already been delivered to Kerry-friendly reporters. Others are on their way, our source told us. When asked if we could have a copy, our source declined, saying there is a limited number of “Brown Books” and they have been carefully inventoried to control in whose hands the books ended up.

Ultimately the “Brown Books” will end up in the hands of pro-Kerry news agencies and reporters. According to our source, who demanded to remain anonymous for fear of retribution, The New York Times is already on the hook to run a negative series on the Vets, as is the Boston Globe, which is owned by the Times. (Editor’s Note: The Globe has already been caught attempting to attack the veracity of George Elliott, Kerry’s commanding officer in Vietnam.)

In addition, the DNC has deployed a six member team from their press shop whose sole responsibility will be to spin and counter-spin stories about the members of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth with pro-Kerry media entities, like the Times.

When asked if this was just another example of John Kerry slandering Vietnam Vets – like he did in 1971 as a member of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War – our source snapped, “No! This is warfare. The only way we’re going to get out of this is to force everyone to question their motives and credibility.”

“If they want to spread rumors and stories about John Kerry, we’ll spread rumors and stories about them. And some of the things they did in Vietnam were a lot worse than what they say John Kerry did,” our source concluded ominously.

Stay tuned. We will keep you posted as this nasty story develops.

That's fairly old news (the post linked to was from August 8th), and the past week has thankfully shown us that the Kerry Campaign's "assault" has been pretty pathetic. The coming week is shaping up to be a great one for the SwiftVets!

I sure hope you're right and this is not the calm before the storm.

One thing for sure is that the Kerry gang is in a state of panic and calling in all the markers with their media buddies.

Well at least the tactics are the same. This style has been the key feature since the late 60's. Kerry learned his stuff while with the VVAW/ Panthers/ Communist Party HQ in New York.
They pulled their methods from here.

Disinformation is much more important than information. If you look at kerry's site, the disinfo spin is evident as theybegin the spin by calling the swiftees "Swift Boat Veterans for Bush".
No such group exists, but if they can hang the tag, then it's another successful kerry lie ......

Does it matter that James Wasser was a delegate to the Democratic National Convention? If the SBFT are being portrayed as Republican operatives by the DNC then is it fair to look at the politics of Kerry's band of brothers? Here's what the AFL-CIO has listed on their website at www.aflcio.org/issuespolitics/ns07262004.cfm

"Wasser is one of 800 union members who are delegates to the Democratic National Convention this week." "This is the most pivotal election we will see for many years" Wasser told Union delegates at a special Labor Caucus on July 25th. "We have a weapon of mass instruction -and that is our vote - and we'd better use it." says Wasser, who served as Kerry's second-in-command on their swiftboat during the Vietnam War 35 years ago.

and this??
""On Wednesday night, Wasser was the one who declared that Illinois would cast its 186 votes for Kerry as the delegates made him their presidential nominee. As he enjoyed that moment of national television exposure, Wasser said he thought of "how in 50 states, I am the only delegate that served with John Kerry in combat."""
