Backlash of Kerry Claims
By Kathleen Antrim
Published on Friday, August 13, 2004

John F. Kerry's campaign for president is imploding. And he knows it.

The anti-war candidate went public as a pro-war candidate this week, and the members of his beloved "Band of Brothers" are exposing a whole book's worth of ugly lies. And they've got details, evidence, footnotes, signed affidavits and witnesses who back up their claims.

Kerry himself bestowed immense credibility on his "Band of Brothers" when he used a picture of some of them in his campaign ad titled "Lifetime."

Essentially, Kerry made Vietnam, and these men, the centerpiece of his campaign. Of course, that was when he thought they'd support his candidacy. No matter that he'd never bothered to ask their permission to use them to promote his political career.

Saw the article, very good. And also VERY MAJOR. This is the first crack in a major daily in a first tier market. And what makes it even more significant is that it comes out of a traditionally left leaning paper and electorate.

For the Kerry camp this has to be the political equivalent of a .50cal to the head. SFE is a Reuters feed, so this will make the wires. WaPo can't be far behind?

Keep going guys!....

Great link to a great article. Well done Hank!!
I sent a thank you e-mail as well. We need to thank the good journalists out there to keep the momentum going.
Keep reading and providing the links to the pundits who have the avocados to get on board with the swift vets and the rest of us.

Just emailed her myself:

Kathleen,

I want to thank you for representing myself and other very concerned Americans. I have two sons 14 & 16. I am very concerned about the November election and who will be at the helm fighting this war against terrorism. I think we deserve to know the truth. Kerry could release the information and let it speak for itself. His refusal to do so leads one to suspect that the documents may validate the charges waged towards him by the Veterans who claim that he is dishonest and not fit to be President.

Mone Charon has a excellant piece at Townhall too. What I found amazing about this was that it came from a SanFran paper.

Great article and from the "left" coast too. It would be wise for John Kerry's camp to remember the famous words of Admiral Yamamoto, after Pearl Harbor.

"I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve."

I too, thanked Kathleen for doing the job, that so many others in her profession have gone AWOL from.

It must have been extra tough for her, in such a Left-Leaning environment!

She should get a medal!!
