What the heck does swiftboating mean now?
is it like "i just got cut off in traffic, that bastard swiftboated me."

or "i didn't win the lottery. feeling a little swiftboated."

"no grill cheese for lunch? man, talk about swiftboating."

4. If someone says something mean about someone you like, true or not, ...
...it is now "swiftboating."

6. dont fall into the Reich Wing redefining words that reveal their true nature.. it means to LIE, the
guy that accused kerry of not earning his medal for valor also got one for valor fighting beside him in the same battle..!!

swift boating is using the fascist corporate owned by the Reich media to knowingly swamp the truth with lies.. distortion and treason if need be.

8. Yes, and it's been going on since time began...
at least as far back as Jefferson in this country. Why people continually fall for it, I haven't a clue.
