New York, NY, Oct. 15 (UPI) -- ABC TV has produced and will air next week a documentary on the Vietnam War fight that has both distinguished and dogged John Kerry's presidential campaign.

<snip>

But the 1969 incident for which Kerry won a Silver Star has also been the focus of one of his most virulent enemies, the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, who charge that all the senator-to-be did that day was shoot one wounded Vietnamese teenage boy in the back as he fled.

Recently ABC interviewed survivors of that skirmish, and it plans to broadcast the results of those interviews on Thursday at 11:35 p.m. EDT.

I believe that this documentary substantiates Kerry's military records.

1. Did anyone see last night's broadcast?

I was asleep long before then.

4. Yes and O'Neill was exposed as the liar he is,

and a nut job throwing a temper tantrum. He was completely discredited. In a real country he'd be a laughing stock, but this is Bush's Amerika, and half the people think lying is a virtue.

2. Documentary?!?! WTF? THIS WAS AN EPISODE OF NIGHTLINE!!!

UPI (Moonie-owned) and Washington Times (Moonie-owned) are grasping for justification for Sinclair's smear tactics.

Fuck you, UPI. Fuck you, Washington Times. A 30-minute piece of unbiased investigative journalism is different from a Republican-commissioned smear film. TRY AS YOU MIGHT, YOU CYNICAL MOTHERFUCKERS, THESE TWO WORKS ARE NOT MORALLY OR JOURNALISTICALLY EQUIVALENT.

FUCKITY, FUCK FUCK FUCK YOU!
