SBVT should demand Kerry give that PH back.

Didn't he throw them all over the fence at the Capitol?

Hmmm,

I was thinking to myself that this would be a good week for Kerry to do something since another of his nemises, Rush, is on leave until next Monday. So, the MSM can spin without being countered in a huge radio market.

THIS IS HUGE

**Exclsuive**

Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry personally phoned anti-Kerry swift boat vets, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Kerry reached out to Robert "Friar Tuck" Brant Cdr., USN (RET) Sunday night, just hours after former Sen. Bob Dole publicly challenged Kerry to apologize to veterans.

Brant was skipper of the #96 and # 36 boat and spent time with Kerry in Anm Thoi. Kerry and Brant slept in the same quarters, and Brant used to put Kerry back to be at night when Kerry was sleepwalking.

Brant received a call from Kerry at his home in Virginia while he was watching the Olympics on TV.

The call lasted 10 minutes, sources tell DRUDGE.

KERRY: "Why are all these swift boat guys opposed to me?"

BRANT: "You should know what you said when you came back, the impact it had on the young sailors and how it was disrespectful of our guys that were killed over there.

[Brant had two men killed in battle.]

KERRY: "When we dedicated swift boat one in '92, I said to all the swift guys that I wasn't talking about the swifties, I was talking about all the rest of the veterans."

Kerry then asked if he could meet Brant -- man to man -- face to face.

Brant declined the invite, explaining that Kerry was obviously not prepared to correct the record on exactly what happened during Vietnam and what happened when Kerry came back.

That makes the $150,000 (or $250,000, depending on whether the "rich Texas Republican" donated) donated to start the group look pretty piddly.

I hope the funds keep pouring in. The Swiftees need more more for more ads.

Wonder how much longer the Kerry campaign will say that SBVT are funded by a rich republican from Texas? This is clearly turning into a grassroots effort.

The amount of donations is outstanding. Looks like Dean isn't the only one who knows how to raise money via the web!!
