So if O'Neil took over Kerry's swift boat, didn't some of Kerry's band of
brothers also serve under O'Neil? I wonder what they think of this crap spewed by O'Neil. Has anyone heard of anything from this point of view?

1. Honestly
Edited on Thu Aug-05-04 06:05 PM by mtnester
I suspect the response to the Swift Liars smear will be carefully and effectively countered...you watch

Knee jerk does not appear to be the pattern of the Kerry supporters on stuff like this, the response will be cold and brutal I believe

2. McCain said today that the ad is totally "dishonest and dishonorable"
... what a bunch of scumbags (O'Neil in particular) these NOT-SO-SWIFT boat runners!!!

KUDOS to McCain as usual

6. Even if the story is that the ad is BULLSHIT?
and the ad is not played in the "news" but scorned?

Are people that dumb?

7. OF COURSE
they DONT CARE if it's false

just the getting of it out there is ALL they WANT

just like the intern story

it's OUT there, and people don't remember if it's true

they just associate INTERN with CLINTON, meaning scumbag

it's like a McDonald's jingle

repeat it over and over and over

it's THERE, working on one's subconscious

VERY effective on undecided voters

13. Not happy at all
Pissed. And I'm not happy that things are going about as I expected with the terra alerts and high profile arrests because if I'm right Bush wins again and we're in for 4 years that make his first term look like the good old days.

9. KERRY knows what he's doing...
He had to expect this was coming....This "O'Neil guy" has been around since Nixon and infact was used by Nixon's dirty tricksters against Kerry late 60's when Kerry was speaking for the vets Anti-War......KERRY dealt with this dope then and he will again....They say Kerry was not a hero or injured badly enough for them.... Military records, KERRY'S boat mates, and the very metals he has flies in the face of that nonsense ....Kerry has his military records Where are George' s records? Hmmmmm....this will come back and bite "George the slime ball" on his backside.....

10. I sent an email to those guys

I actually "posed" as a Republican, pro-Bush supporter and really questioned the tactics he is using against Kerry.

So far I have gotten no response and i sent the email a week ago.
