Here's a link for a hilarious take-off of the Swift Boat ads done by my local radio station. My mother, who lives over two hours away and doesn't listen to the station, sent me the link.

Don't have heart failure if the thing is listed on the web site as "Shrimp Boat Veterans for Kerry". I've already sent e-mail to the web master because the clip is clearly from the Shrimp Boat Veterans for Truth.

The funny accent, for those of you who have not been to south Louisiana, is an old-time Cajun-French accent.

Here's a transcript I just made. This ad is a very cleverly done take-off of the real thing:

Quote:
Shrimp Boat Veterans for Truth
(transcribed from clip at http://www.wjbo.com/shrimpboatvets.html)

Cajun: Dat John Karry, he not fit for command dis U S of A. I know, I was dare.

Narrator: Listen to what the Shrimp Boat Veterans for Truth say about John Kerry.

Cajun: Dem shrimp, heh, dey was runnin' roun' by da boatload. Dey was shrimmin' round us like, well, like shrimp, and John Karry, he don't even drop hees net. Me, ah'm not believin' dat!

Narrator: John Kerry may have been a hero in Vietnam, but in the bayous of Louisiana, they tell a different story.

Cajun: I could tol' you right now, cher, he don' know a shrimp from a mudbug.

Narrator: Senator Kerry's version of the shrimp boat incident just doesn't hold water.

Cajun: Dem Vietnamese don' be shoot at da boat, no. No, I fall off da boat when John Karry he cut the wheel, cher. Den he come back to got me.

Narrator: John Kerry, wrong about shrimp, wrong for America.

Cajun: We got shrimp. John Karry never got some ah dat dare shrimp.

Narrator: The Shrimp Boat Veterans for Truth. If you like shrimp, you'll love these guys.

Cajun: My hind name is Boudreaux (boo-droe) and I done put my okay on dis message.
