CBS is saying the Swift Vets are turning the election. "The ad may be working....Support among veterans has dropped from 47% to 36".

Great lead story on ABC, too.
SBVT is taking charge of this campaign.
Micheal Moore, eat your heart out.
UFC is doing far more than Farenheit 911.

I can't believe CBS is even mentioning Swiftvets, let alone not spinning it or lying about it. 
Watch 'em. It's a setup.

Vets and active duty can win this election and put that poser out of a political career - but we have to get out the vote!
Every vote is going to count - write and get your absentee ballot requested now so that on voting day, your vote will be counted even if your car won't start or you throw your back out or you are otherwise impeded.
Absentee ballots are not difficult to receive in most states and usually require nothing more than a statement than you will not be available on election day.
Register and vote - this is the ONE "special interest group" that can win or lose an election by itself - we can do it!

That alone explains Kerry's response today. |

The appearance of his fellow Vietnam veterans at the Democratic convention helped John Kerry’s support among veterans, but the recent attacks on his Vietnam service may have moved veterans’ support back toward George W. Bush now. Kerry is running well behind his opponent among veterans; now, 55 percent of veterans back Bush, and 37 percent back Kerry. A few weeks ago, both candidates were tied among veterans.

All excellent news.
The quick responses today to the Post story paid off (hat tip Rat & Co.), and Kerry's internal polling apparently lured him into the line of fire.
This group has been an inspiration to many people who feared this tiny, deceitful man was going to get a free ride. Truth as well as facts are stubborn things.
Thank you. |

This is the coverage that O'Donnel the senior political analyst for MSNBC feared would give Kerry trouble in winning the election. O'Donnel's fear is that as long as the public who do not watch cable news channels have no knowledge of Unfit for Command Kerry is safe in maintaining his lead. Even with the mainstream broadcasters focusing on Kerry's military service, the major broacasters like CBS, ABC, and NBC can never be trusted, they will develop follow up news stories or so called investigative news programs that will tip the balance of favor to Kerry so he can win in November.

| It's probably time to start revealing what the VVAW did to a generation of brave American soldiers. |

YES, YES, YES!
So far, the discussion has been on fraudulent medals and bugging out - but the book contains a heck of a lot more information about VVAW, meeting with the enemy and the communist connections.

I'm thinking that is phase 2 -- and waiting for it..... already emailing around the flyer posted here previously of one of the flyers Kerry's anti-war group was passing out -- all about what criminals American soldiers are. emailing it, talking about it -- writing shows!! and so it goes ....Just jogging people's memories lest they have forgotten... Soon, hopefully, everyone's memories will be refreshed, so to speak -- and for those who weren't there, it is time to know the truth about who Kerry IS and what he DID!! |

It is about time!!!!! I can not believe (and I know I should not be surprised and really I am not) that it took the MSM THIS long.
I support my fellow vets! John O'Neill ROCKS!!!! All of the swiftvets have! They show what REAL men are made of....where HONOR and COUNTRY actually are more than words.
Go Swifties...Go! Us vets support you guys!!!!
