What news is coming out that caused the swiftboat liars to resurface?
They were dismissed some months ago but no they're back, i understand they have a "book" to hawk but i think some bad news for boy king must be coming out and coming out soon for them to send out a pre-emptive strike team.

1. And completely coordinated.
The event is simply John Kerry doing well. This was pre-coordinated with the Rush Limbaughs, Sean Hannitys, etc. They didn't count on McCain weighing in, did they? They certainly didn't mention McCain in their rants today.

7. It was their plan
They said they were going to attack Kerry in August. They are. No surprise. They're trying to take away any momentum after the convention and I think it's backfiring terribly. Kerry has a war record, told the truth about Vietnam, has a Senate record, and has supported our vets and the military all along. By the time we get to the Rep convention, Bush should be crawling.

8. Doesn't matter, scum always floats to the surface.

Swiftboat Vets for the Truth are like any Republican tactic, the name is the opposite of what they really are about.
Clear skies, healthy forests, no child left behind.
republicans wouldn't know the truth if it bit them on their collective asses.

10. The Democratic.............
Convention is over. Kerry isn't going to spend any money on ads until after the RNC. Perfect timing for this scum sucking band of mothers to attack Kerry.

To say that the Bush Administration knew nothing of this attack ad is just pure bullshit.

I'm so fucking mad about this shit I swear it's going to take every bit of restraint I have to not go out and start beating the crap out of fucking Republicans. They are scum. The lowest of the low. They do not deserve the air they breathe.

11. They got organized
they got money and hired a Dallas media firm to get their word out.

Guess where the money came from? No, guess. Big time Republicans.

Duh. There's a great article in last week's Dallas Observer about them that I posted a link to here in another thread but I can't search threads, so maybe someone can pull it up (I SWEAR I am making a DU contribution THIS MONTH, right after I get paid on the 19th!!!).
