 |

A couple days ago, I thought I saw a comment from someone who seemed to be in the know that there would be a new announcement from Swift Vets today (Tuesday).
Was there? If so, what? Or if not, will there be something new later this week? Eagerly awaiting.... |

Other than one of our participants coming out and signing an affidavit to affirm that he had been pressured to lie at Winter Soldier, nope.... nothing else that I've heard of.

You might be referring to the kerrylied.com press release, which was supposed to be available today?
But, Swifts isn't sponsoring the Sep 12 event - we've just given space to it on this board - Sticky: Vietnam Vet Protest Against Kerry:

That's what I love actually, about not knowing what is coming next or when -- thinking "something" is going to happen and then it doesn't -- it makes me think, if we're so anxious, eagerly waiting for a "strike" of some sort -- what do you think Kerry is going thru every single day???  |

supposedly the kerrylied.com group was to have a press conference today, and would announce agenda, speakers etc
for Sunday. John ONeill is to be a speaker.
But, didnt see any news on it, when I googled.

This blurb was in the Inside Politics column this morning's edition of the Washington Times!
http://www.washtimes.com/national/inpolitics.htm
| Quote: | Veterans rally
As if Sen. John Kerry doesn't have enough trouble fending off Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, another group of Vietnam veterans plans to rally against the Democratic presidential nominee.
Vietnam Vets for the Truth (www.KerryLied.com) "represents men and women who served honorably during that war and feel terribly maligned" by Mr. Kerry's "longstanding claims of widespread atrocities and war crime" by U.S. troops in Vietnam, the group said.
The group, led by retired Navy Capt. Larry Bailey, former head of the Navy's SEAL school, plans a press conference at 9:30 a.m. today at the National Press Club.
Among other events and election-season plans, the group will announce a "Kerry Lied" rally set for 2 p.m. Sunday at Capitol Plaza Park, between the U.S. Capitol and Union Station. The rally will feature "prominent Vietnam veterans," the group said.
