Thanks very much for your service, Shipmate! The slanders directed at the Swift Boat Veterans in 2004 brought back bitter memories for me, and I'm sure for many other Vietnam Vets as well.
Forty years later and the bastards are still hard at work undermining and denigrating the work we did in 'Nam.
For any posters who are not old enough to remember the Vietnam War, it was an honorable cause and we prevailed in every major engagement in the field. When I left in August 1969, we had the situation well in hand.
Plenty of villains in the piece, notably Sen. Half-bright from AK, Kerry, Jane Fonda, and the "most trusted man in America" Walter Cronkite. They and many others laid the groundwork for the Fall of Vietnam.
Sorry for the rant. Yes, I'm still bitter and probably will go to my grave bitter. Just know this: The Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen and Coast Guardsmen who fought in the Vietnam War were patriots who acted with the zeal,professionalism and valor America has come to expect from its Military. We have nothing to be ashamed of. I'm damned proud to be a combat veteran of the Vietnam War.

I bet that it comes out they knew where Osama was and had internal fighting for 6-9 months about what to do.
Saw a report yesterday that the administration/Pentagon knew Osama was staying at that location since Oct or Nov 2010, but “risked losing him” to put off taking him out.
Also had info on who the admiral & others were who actually ran the operation & gave the order. Except in a very vague & general sense, it wasn't Obama.
IIRC, it was in yesterday’s or Saturday's Daily Mail. Not at home, so I can't search my browser history to find the reference right now.

> As a Swift Boat Veteran, I too hope the SEALs form an opposition truth group. This girly man piece of crap makes me sick...and the stupidity of Billy Bob Bubba Clinton shooting his mouth off about what a hero Obozo is...what a joke.
As a brother Swifty, I couldn’t agree with you more.

Yes, Sky - and when he cadged his Silver Star, he insisted on getting a Combat "V" for it. The moron apparently didn't know that Silver Stars are only awarded for combat actions and Combat "V's" are not added to them.
I read the account of his action for which he got the Silver Star. Bottom line, it looks to me like he chased a retreating VC behind a hooch and back-shot him. Can't prove it, just what it looks like to me.

Those Who Worship him, such as Tom Hanks, would give up the Seal’s names and the names of their families for obama.

You, Sir, are one great American! This Navy veteran salutes you, your service and your accomplishments. We did what we could, didn’t we.

I have to wonder what the backlash against obama would be if the Seals went public and were punished. I know the Seals would be slammed by the left but I wonder if at least 51% of America would support them.

Its easy to get a purple heart when you write your own after-action reports. He never shed a drop of blood, btw. Glad you think he deserved those medals. Says a lot about you.
To: Terry Mross
We did indeed, Brother! And thanks for your service at a time when our contemporaries were dodging the draft and escaping offshore. You stood up for America when it was not the popular thing to do: you stood up when it counted, as many on this forum have. You're a Patriot!

To: ConorMacNessa
My recollection is that the Republican establishment and the McCain campaign wanted nothing to do with the Swift Boat Veterans and that it was hard for the Swift Boat Veterans to get their message out (given the media's protectiveness towards Kerry).
Kerry is a traitor--while still in the Navy he went to Paris to act as consultant to the enemy negotiators (North Vietnamese and VC). Then he tried to use his military service as a vote-getter in 2004 while his lackeys in the press were creating fake documents to use against President Bush.
I think he let Douglas Brinkley look at his military records--a shameless lickspittle for Democratic politicians who could be trusted not to reveal anything embarrassing.
To: Terry Mross
They're already slammed anyway by the left, they're military.
I hope they go after him with a vengence.
