Heard Hannity on radio today say "The Swifboat Veterans for Truth" were retooling to take on Murtha. He said something like the SVFT had renamed themselves Veterans for Truth.

Was his statement a bit confused, or did I hear wrong?

FDL...most likely Hannity was just as bolloxed as the MSM and confused Vets For The Truth (Larry Bailey's new organization) with the Swiftees.

I heard that on Hannity today also and did a double take as I had already heard Larry Baily deny being a Swiftee.

Addressing accusations from the Murtha rally that they were nothing but a bunch of "carpetbaggers" and "swift boaters," local veteran Mark Parker, Waynesburg, PA, said, "That's not true. We're not the Swift Boat Veterans. They are an entirely separate group, but thanks for the compliment. We're local veterans, local guys."

And this over at Polipundit

Swift Boaters Target Murtha
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. — Two years after a cadre of veterans helped sink the presidential campaign of Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.), they have found a new target in the old steel country of southwestern Pennsylvania: Democratic Rep. John P. Murtha.
In a fight that organizers say will feature rallies, TV ads and an aggressive Internet campaign, these activists are promising to make Murtha pay for his criticism of the Iraq war.
Recent Spotlight on America guest and Republican candidate Diana Irey likely doesn’t mind the new push to ouster Murtha from the seat she’s trying to take from him. If you want to lend a hand head over to Irey’s website. Speaking of Irey, she was on Slimeball with Chris Matthews Thursday.
