Anyone that’s been on this board for as long as I have understands that I believe in this organization and want Bush reelected.

We have to be honest in analyzing the effects of the Swift Boat ad that started airing today. I’m wondering if it’s doing more harm for Bush’s campaign than good. Yes, I know it speaks the truth, however, all the comments from people that support Bush and understand politics and how to win an election say this ad will hurt Bush.

If O’Neil believes this could be possible, would he pull the ad? Or, God forbid has all this gone to his head? He has the new book coming out (which I have on pre-order from Amazon) and he’s in the news all over the place. Mr. O’Neil – please, be honest to yourself, think this through and if you believe you are doing good then go forward. However, if there are any doubts, pull the plug on the ad.

If Kerry really believed the ad was going to hurt Bush's campaign more than Kerry's campaign, why would Kerry be using his lawyers to bully the media into not broadcasting the ad?

I think the ad will have it's intended effect. The American people aren't as stupid as Michael Moore asserts. Let the public decide. There's a war on. The public needs to know everything about the two candidates to make an informed choice.

In view of the war-time situation, having a choice between Michael Moore and Kerry, and the swiftees with all their medal winners and Bush, they're going to go for Bush.

Keep the faith.

Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.

Truth.

Truth is the best medicine. Often medicine does not taste good at all.

Kerry as president? With Sandy Berger, Jimi Carter, Joe Wilson,
Richard Clark advising him?

The truth, which President Bush is too polite to say is 911 is the
direct result of Clintons and Kerry's complete incompetence.

John Kerry played a integral role in gutting the intelligence and
defense budgets throughout the 90's.

This is the Truth

John Kerry lied to get decorations in the Vietnam war. He used these icons of America as props in his protests.

He uses these icons as props today.

Ask yourself who would 'throw their medals away' on national television and mysteriously have them on proud display in his senate office thirty years later.

John Kerry likely deserves the Navy equivalent of a Combat Infantry Badge, that is something he can be proud of.

Except for this his Entire career needs to be Vetted (no pun intended) from head to toe.

The DNC continually blathers on about anyone who may or not remember
George Bush getting a physical exam 30 years back.

The doctor who treated John Kerry does remember John Kerry very
well. Kerry presented himself as a fraudulent opportunist in a battle zone
then and we are in a battle zone today.

Don't need no fraudulent opportunists at the helm today.

Show the Comercial and let the Vets speak. Hillary Clinton has made it
clear in that hysterical rant of hers that we as Americans should
debate these things anytime, anywhere.

For once I agree with her.

I apologize for repeating my statement. But I really dont think that ad was a good idea. I know I am going to get some heat for this, but hear me out. When you have republicans outraged at the comments I dont think that the add is helping. I especially dislike a posting that I saw bashing Sen McCain. He is a true man, a man of honor and I am sadden that any vet would speak to a POW like that.

Fox reported that on "Grapevine" segment of Brit Hume's show. Brit was not on today because he takes Fridays off. I'm willing to bet that it will be corrected next week, because Brit loves to catch journalists with their pants down.

Hannity is aware of it..discussed it on his radio show today, and will talk about it tonight

The ad is what brought me to this site and it's what got me thinking for the first time about John Kerry's war record. Prior to seeing this ad the standard party line was that Kerry is a hero and a veteran and his record is never to be questioned.Kerry is not running on his 19 years in Congress because he can't win with that record.He's running on his war record because that's all he has, take that away and he will not win. That's why the strong response from the dems and the leftist to the ad and the calls for Pres Bush who has no control over the ad to get it removed.The ad raises question that no one has asked during the campaign that will be answered in the upcoming book "Unfit for Command".

As for John McCain he had an opportunity to come on After Hours Friday on MSNBC to further comment on the SBVT ad, his appearance was announced Thurs in promos for the show.The Friday show was live and McCain was not there and no explanation was given for his abscence.

Perhaps John McCain was given an advance copy of the book?
