Video Clip of John Kerry on Meet the Press January 30, 2005.

I created a Windows Media format clip of John Kerry once again saying he will sign Form 180 on the January 30, 2005 Meet The Press. It can be viewed at the SwiftBoatArchives.com website so everyone can see and hear Kerry once again say he will sign Form 180 while all the liar Democrats continue to claim Kerry released all his records and signed Form 180.

Thanks for archiving that SBD. One thing I'd like to be clear on however. As I listen to/read Kerry's statement, I see no quid pro quo requirement that other un-named "challengers?" also sign form 180. "I'd LIKE to see" is not equivalent to "they must ALSO produce" but Russert seems to be straining to characterize it as a quid pro quo. Anyone else see it that way?

He ambushed Kerry but failed to get the 180 signed on National TV. If you are going to go through the effort of having the actual form 180 in your hands, then the logical step would have been to have him sign it. Instead, he let Kerry once again manipulate the situation by saying the Swift Boat Veterans need to do the same.

What bothers me more is how Kerry went about his request for the Swift Boat Veterans to release their recored. He clearly gave the impression he knew something about a Swift Boat Veteran(s) that they would not want to be released. Isn't this called "Abuse of Power", using your position as a Senator to find out information about someone and invading their privacy. How does he know anything about a Swift Boat Veteran who has not signed a form 180. In order to make such a claim, we might infur that he is guilty of invasion if privacy and abuse of his power as well. Once a criminal, always a criminal!!

Well there's another little bit of fibbing in that clip....
his medical records were released? they weren't on his website, only a letter from his personal Doc,
who only wrote a summary of what he ( or someone) felt were pertinent points.

btw SBD, really great video...amazingly clear

You got it, SBD!!

"And I'd call on those who have challenged me, let's see their records. I want to
see the records of each of those people who have put up a challenge,
because some of them have some serious questions in them,
and it hasn't been appropriate..."

When I heard him say that I thought how the H@@L does he know
what's in their records?

The other thing that really p****d me was why Russert presses
him NOW about signing the 180. Why wasn't he pressing him
BEFORE THE ELECTION!!!

[SBD]

If Kerry sees it fit to request that the Swift Boat Veterans sign Form 180, then I request that Kerry's Band of Traitors also sign Form 180 especially Rev Alston. I doubt Kerry would want to go there!!

Doug I think the bigger question, the real question is how are the records of any of the Swifities relevant and cogent to anything?

How is this not extortion?

We all know who the two folks were running for president.
Bush's records..... Military and Driving were clearly considered very
relevant in the 2000 election and again in the 05 election. Personally I think the driving records are more pertinent.

As you witnessed, Kerry presented himself to the nation and the world as a whole as a hallowed veteran during the Democratic Convention. As we all know, all too painfully ‘Reporting For Duty' (insert woosey salute here).

To hold ones self up on a pedestal so precariously while the vast majority of his immediate Peer group of the Swift Boat command and fellow sailors who served with and alongside him.... Clearly let him know far in advance they vociferously objected to such a ludicrous assertion where they, his fellow sailors would naturally be the foundation for any such claim.... well this was very foolish and does make his military record in its un edited form very pertinent

Still George Bush's Military record is very pertinent.... so much so that Dan Rather made a very innocent mistake while passionately pursuing the 'truth' over the five years they researched whether or not you could characterize bush as a coddled bimbo with a cocaine problem. I don't recall Bush making a big deal of his not being a coddled bimbo with a cocaine problem and a happenstance war hero....... ever.

Any way Rather Kind of screwed that one up, did he not?

My long winded question remains: how is Kerry’s asinine game of 'chicken' over military records with the very same set of Veterans he told the world held him in great respect... (while the vast majority of them felt quite the opposite) How is this not Extortion?

Then what about all the lawsuits threatened by the Kerry Campaign if any broadcaster were to reveal the nature of any of this while said broadcasters exercised their rights to freedom of the press and to freedom of speech.

As a matter of precision if Kerry does not have absolute first hand knowledge of the 'Bust' he refers to he has no business mentioning it al all.

In the great big world of Gossip I don't believe too much that I don't have direct personal knowledge of. So either Kerry's seen his fellow soldiers personal records, or he was present when this 'bust' took place and somehow remained above the fray throughout.
