I detest the mantra stole the election.. That wasn't shot down each and every time it was used as a shrill..
So I am on a campaign to shoot down every discredited Swiftvet article, post or mention with this type of response, comment or rant.

Nicely though, so maybe some of these peeps will "think" before re-acting.

Fair.org we especially want to hear of bias.. did you see that on thier site? I did soooo I reported it the bias that is.

Dear PHart,

"Fair" ?

Stolen Honor"-- much like the discredited Swift Boat Veterans ads-- offers unsubstantiated claims by alleged Vietnam POWs that their Vietnamese captors used Kerry's anti-war statements against them. In fact, the organization that paid for "Stolen Honor"-- called POWs for Truth-- recently merged with the Swift Boat Vets, forming a combined group called Swift Vets and POWS for Truth.

You have these groups confused with Senator John Kerry, who's record of his wartime experiences are alleged by three who allegedly served with him. Because Senator Kerrry refuses access to full disclosure of HIS service records and refuses to sign the required release to anyone, his record is alleged by him. There has been no discredit to the Swiftvets claims that I have found to date. Rather we do indeed have admissions of error and corrections to the in-accuracy of Senator Kerry's claims. Simply corrected and added to his websites. I also do not have any record to exhibit of the Senator or his campaign publishing or offering these corrections and admissions of error for broadcast through any media outlet, in print or aired. So perhaps you have not kept up with events, for that you are excused. I look forward to your re-phrasing and crediting the Swiftvets for helping Senator Kerry to set these records straight.

Senator Kerrry has been offered air time through several venues, along with Sinclair Broadcasting to address the documented reports and official action reports by everyone else who served with him. The general assumption is Senator Kerry cannot answer these conflicting records for fear of incriminating himself, that was the reason his lawyers and the DNC attempted to intiminate Unfit for Command's Publishers and demanded no further publishing of the book.

Senator Kerry, the DNC and their lawyers, demanded and attempted to intiminate news publishers and broadcast media to remove the ads which were produced by the afore-mentioned documents and action reports in direct conflict with Senator Kerry's alleged service record.

Senator Kerry is yet again attempting to further intiminate a media outlet Sinclair Broadcasting with unfounded claims as his organization is confused about the whether the document offers the merits of a news and information document. This time Senator Kerry and his campaign have over stepped their bounds and have allowed an explicit threat against Sinclair Broadcasting to go un-answered and failed to denounce the threat in a direct and timely fashion. The silence borders on extortion if left standing as it directly states the Sinclair Broadcasting Company will regret their actions if he is elected as President.

A personal aside. How can you on one hand claim to support a War hero and then denigrate other War heros, simply because they offer an opposing view. I realize it is a very unflattering view of Senator Kerry, but if the man is what he claims he could very simply offer a full release and we can all understand more of what happened and why so much has festered all these years. If you have ever felt unfairly treated and wanted someone to address your grievance would you want the world to appear to simple dismiss you and instead attempt to discredit you. Senator Kerry has had his version of events stand all these years, because he is been very effective in hiding the truth and keeping it under wraps. Its time to open the records and allow the wounds to heal.

Did you know the Veterans that are speaking out are of all political bents? This is personal for them and I feel confident in adding to all Americans too. This issue brings out all the pain, suffering and disgrace we Americans have lived in silence with, the pain from losing our loved ones. The suffering of what they went through, there and here. The disgrace of America seeming to the world to denigrate our service people. They had no parades, they had no welcome home banners that were put up by their towns and cities. They were simply doing a job and what a payback.

So to be perfectly "Fair" you need to research more and avoid DNC talking points, and begin to be fair and truthful.
