Susan was saying just today on tv, that if Bush was to come out publicly and request that the SBVT remove the ad that they of course would listen (I guess she has the inside link to how the SVBT would react to such a request). I guess my perception was that she was basically saying that Bush should ask for the removal of the ads. At the same time she agreed something to the effect that if Kerry called for moveon to remove their ad that they would. I can't recall word for word, and I don't have a transcript that that is the essence of what I heard today. I think I also heard Juan Williams suggest the other day the same notion that if Bush would denounce the ad and ask that they don't play it, then they would comply. If I come across a transcript later, I'll post it here

Either way... let's say that I did mis-hear or mis-understand about the actual removal of the ad (even though I'm pretty sure what I heard), it still is bogus that Kerry & company are demanding Bush to denounce the SBVT ad, when Kerry & company wrap their arms around the likes of Michael Moore and Bush has not even shaken hands with the SBVT. It's just my opinion..... yahoooooooooooooooo I'm glad to live in a country where I am free to express it toooooooo

nickb,

If I'm not mistaken, the moveon.org ad asks Bush to take it off TV.

Also, if you were referring to my earlier comment, what I meant was that if Bush were to ask SBVFT to take down the ad, or conversely if Kerry were to demand that moveon.org take down their ad (so the candidate requesting to take down the ad which is organized by their own party.)

Of course it would be a more obvious violation the other way around...

This is my first post. I served in the Navy for 32 years and I believe the Swift Vets. The points I like to make and they have already been covered a number times but they are still valid.

- Yes these are both 527 ads. But its like comparing apples to oranges. MoveOn has repeatly stated their main objective is to remove Bush from the White House. Soros is willing to spend and had spent millions to accomplish this goal. He just plain doesn't like Bush. He's is using his wealth to influence the outcome of the election - just like Moore and the others irks.

- The SwiftVets are responding to Kerry's "Tour of Duty" and the misinformation therein. Plus is behaviour upon returning to the "World".
Unlike Soros they actually served with him have every right to set the record straight. They earned this right with their blood, sweat and tears in Vietnam. The SwiftVets are armed with the truth and first hand experience.

The vast majority of the people posting of this site knows this ad has been very effective, not to mention the book. Kerry has not been able to provide anything other than a lot of BS to refute the SwiftVets allegations.
They know that they can't do that so they will continue to attack their creditable and character.

Like they say "The proof is in the pudding", until someone of their side can come up with some hard evidence that the Swifties are lying, I will put my money on these sailors.

Isn't it strange that the enlisted crewmembers supporting Kerry hasn't make any appearances to refutes these claims. Let's see a debate!
Rassmann had make a couple of attempts - but it reading the book and the other stuff of this site I have serious doubts about his creditibility. Let's see them face off, and response to each others comments.
The March 13 action per his report just doesn't pass the common sense test. Like Judge Judy says "If it doesn't pass the common sense test, there's a high probability it's not true".

One last comments if I may - I think the next ad should include Kerry's so called secret missions to Cambodia - pictures of the LCU, PBRs, signs, statements from the OIC of the LCU or PBRs etc.

That's my two cents.

The people who served on Kerry's boat are only allowed to speak through the campaign.

A private investigator did manage to speak with three of them who discounted Kerry's version of an event, but the next time contact was attempted, they told the PI that they had been instructed not to speak to the PI again.

Why denounce anything from either party?... How about we have Bush come out with a simple statement:

"In this great nation of ours, the freedom to express ourselves is one of our most cherished things. There have been several ads, some very creative, critical of me and my administration. I hold no malice and consider these ads to be an expression of freedom. There have also been ads critical of my opponent. While I am unable to comment on the veracity of the content of those ads, I urge people to examine both sides of every issue and to come to their own conclusions. This is part of what makes this the greatest country on earth. God Bless The United States of America. This is George W. Bush, and I approved this message."

I think the Kerry Kamp would poop their diapers on that one.
