just heard it on washington journal. They have some idiot on, who is complaining that kerry used picture with a group. Obviously still deluded about the truth concerning vietnam. It should be noted the guy is in the oil business.

2. He just said he works on an oilfield
I'm beginning to believe this is satire.

3. They're also a lying bunch of dirtbags who should be. . .
investigated by the IRS for false statements when filing for their tax exempt status:

"SwiftVets.com is a tax exempt non-partisan public advocacy “527”organization consisting of, and limited to, former military officers and enlisted men who served in Vietnam on U.S. Navy “Swift Boats.” or in affiliated commands."

So they say they're non-partisan, on another page they say they think all candidates from all parties should tell the truth about their military service, they ignore the fact that Kerry has, attack him, then ignore the fact that Bush has yet to be honest about his service.

Non-partisan my ass.

4. This Vet supports Kerry 100% What did Boy George do compared to Kerry
He could not be bothered to show up for annual flight physical, thereby losing his status as a pilot. The U.S. spent 1 million dollars training him to be a qulified pilot. So much for his book: A CHARGE TO KEEP. I say "A Creep to Charge" with deriliction of duty for the title of the next biography about G.W. Bush. ...Oscar

5. Oh, and did you notice
that when the host tried to run the actual Kerry ad, it suddenly "wasn't available", so there was nothing to balance the right wing oil freak anti-Kerry guy? How convenient. What is that host's name? He's my least favorite.

6. They did show it, after a while
Ridiculous for that doofus to say that he was demanding the ad be pulled because it makes him look like a Kerry supporter...to anyone with half a brain, it just looks like he was in Kerry's unit in Vietnam.

I liked the ad.

7. These guys are backed by some right-wing ad person
I can't remember the name. This is an organized effort to smear Kerry. Did you notice where the guy works - for an OIL company.
