FROM FOX NEWS:

PHILADELPHIA — A Vietnam veteran shown in a documentary criticizing Sen. John Kerry's (search) anti-war activities filed a libel lawsuit against the movie's producer Monday, saying the film falsely calls the veteran a fraud and a liar.

Kenneth J. Campbell, now a professor at the University of Delaware, said in the suit that "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal" combines footage of him appearing at a 1971 war protest with narration that claims that many of the supposed veterans who took part in the event were later "discovered as frauds" who "never set foot on the battlefield, or left the comfort of the States, or even served in uniform."

This is just another attempt to censor the documentary.

This yoyo wasn't singled out and named. He just happened to be in the crowd. I'm sure the Kerry people have been looking for someone like this and he's probably getting free legal services. Confused

It's obvious that the Kerry people are working overtime to get people who were in the documentary, or pows, or swiftboats to side with Kerry.

But as John O'Neil rightly pointed out, the people who support/defend Kerry wouldn't fill a swiftboat.
