Rick N - As I'm not a blind liberal nor a blind, sheepish, neo-con, I sincerely feel that Dan Rather got what he deserved. Only the sheep of this country pledge their undying loyalty to a political party.

Even some of the military papers acknowledged their accounts of Kerry were false, and they've even been fined for some inappropriate political maneuvering. War records showed many inconsistencies and outright flip-flops in their own accounts, proving that even veterans can be propaganda-tools by one of the most inept administrations of our time. Here's one account:

Partisan neo-cons would realize this is a pile of lies, but since it helped the Sitcom President earn another term (barely, 2% margin of victory which is AWFUL for a wartime incumbent President) they won't admit it.
Here's another article which shows the lengths Kerry has taken to clear his record. Again, neo-cons don't truly care for truth as long as their candidate (Captain Chickenhawk and Friends) remain in office. Pathetic.

The "Swift Boat Vets" are like other ephemeral divisive political groups in the USA.
They have used up all of their dirty money to garner their 15 minutes of fame by spreading their half-truths and now they are gone forever.
TRACE THE MONEY TRAIL.
It doesn't matter if these groups attack Pres. Bush or Kerry or Gus Hall, they are all dirty unAmerican specters and should be ignored.

Maybe they volunteered for a tour of duty in Iraq. They are driving their boats up and down the Euphrates River getting American politicians in and out of the Green Zone quickly.

They were just a propaganda arm for the White House for 2004 Election, we'll never see them again.

Please cite a single "lie" they told during the 2004 campaign. Making He of the Long Face look even more ridiculous than he already did does not render them liars, only inconvenient.
BTW, how did you feel about the Dan Rather forged documents brouhaha? Something tells me you weren't overly troubled by that particular ethical lapse.

common people that banded together to tell the truth..... "I was in cambodia" was another John Kerry Lie and they called him on it and went back to being just American citizens.

They are still out there. They didn't lie. Just Kerry is no longer news and he himself has outed himself on his disdain for the Military. If his last visit to Iraq is any indicator one can see the disdain for that man is returned in spades.
